Why do I have a F01 Alpina V8 in a box? The picture on it is of a M54...

Good question.... so.... why do you have a F01 Alpina V8 in a box?

[KevinC]

Replacement or a new addition?


Unfortunately, a replacement. My Z4MC was hit to the tune of $9500 worth of body/RR suspension repair in January. I had already been lusting after the M2c in recent months, but there was NO way I was going to buy one, because I was set with the pair of cars I had, both were paid for, and only 2 spots in the garage for me. But fate works in strange ways. Once the car was hit I decided I would sell once I got it back. Ordered the M2c within days, received it on 4/30. Soooo happy I got one of the last of the F87's - what an incredible car! Just about the same size as the E46, but SO much more power, and more modern in every conceivable way, most of them good ways (cough EPS cough cough).

Not really a ZHP specific picture. But, it has a member in this picture, so I think we good.

Pizza garage started to take commercial vehicles. He was using a proper Ruski rigging technique. He used a soldering iron to cut a piece of plastic in my bumper, so I can install fog lights. Nate, I haven't thought about it and your method works amazing well. I only knew about plastic welding with soldering iron before.
Anyways, session 1 for working on commercial cars was successful.

Jokes aside, Nate, thank you for helping buddy!

Last night, final session for professional light installation in ZHPizza garage was held. Everything went super smooth.
Bumper got bunch of new holes, dashboard received a new switch, ZHPizza gave 3-4 Uga Duggas to secure lights to the bumper and few beers were consumed after the work was done.
Great Friday! Thank you for providing the space, tools and helping with lights install @ZHPizza.

Yeah, that was a big plus when I was making my decision, but honestly, not many PAs switch specialties. The trick is, if you want to switch, going to something at least somewhat comparable, like IM to cardiology, or maybe one procedural specialty to another.

I knew you were in medicine, I forgot you were that far along in your training! Family medicine sounds fun, are you doing fellowship?



Nice, well enjoy! It's nice that we have some med folks on hereNo fellowship for me. I'm not sure there's anything I feel so strongly about that I would be willing to do more training but I've dabbled at the thought of hospice/palliative medicine. Also we're somewhat limited on our fellowship options compared to our IM counterparts so the exciting things like GI or critical care aren't really options for us.

Above all, I'm ready to finally start living a normal life and get a decent check. I've been at this since 18 and I just turned 31.

Yeah, when I did my Family Medicine clerkship I learned that there are fewer options that I had imagined for Family Medicine in terms of fellowship, but the flipside is that's kind of nice that there isn't necessarily the expectation or need. A friend of mine finished her palliative fellowship for pediatrics, but there aren't ANY jobs for her in the area she wants to live so she's just being a generalist.

And I hear that about wanting some attending status / perks - I'm applying into residency this year and I'm 31. Long road ahead haha. Congrats on almost being done!

Thanks! It is really good but there are some shortcomings.

- acceleration is very slow and it consumes a ton of gas (full tank lasts ~400 km). But it will pull a ~1600 lb trailer, and do it reliably (though oil temps are holding constant at 120C, which is higher than I'd like)

- with the BMWP exhaust (which is relatively tame), it has some drone. But that's because I have to be on the throttle fairly heavily with the trailer. Without trailer, not heavy on throttle so very little drone

- I have GC DA coilovers which are actually quite decent on the street. But on very big bumps I do hit the bumpstops

No real good pic today either (Santa Rosa, NM) but wanted to post a couple observations:

1) My engine, which currently sits at 353,000 km has not burned a single drop of oil since I left. And I've been on the throttle quite a bit, the OBC says I'm averaging 17 mpg. Very, very surprising - which is why I love using Rotella

2) The cooling system seems to be adapting to the high oil temps. Usually coolant temp hovers around 95C and oil around 120-123C. But just today I've seen coolant temps go down to 80C regularly, with oil temps down to 115-119C. I guess the DME sees that higher oil temp and commands the thermostat to open more?

Made it to Las Vegas, the scenery was much better.

I think one of my fillups had some bad gas. Have some sputtering just off idle when load is applied, so when taking off from a stop. Highspeed driving is fine though - I've had to do minutes at a time of WOT to maintain speed up the hills and it was fine. Hopefully it clears up by tomorrow

So pretty!! A friend said that if you’re near Groom Lake on the straight highway you just gun it and a USAF jet may come say hi if you’re going fast enough. I tried with my ZHP holding 147mph GPS speed but no UFOs came along side for rolling shots dammit. I did shave a few minutes off my trip though. LOL

Yeah, what I didn't mention was the small "cliff" of like 30-40 mm dropoff from the pavement to the shoulder. Which I didn't realize until it was too late, so I did scrape a bit. Had I known that I wouldn't have pulled off, but what's done is done.

Also holy shit lol. Such a big contrast to me - there are a lot of hills heading into Vegas from Arizona. At its worst I was flooring it in 4th and still slowing down at 100 km/h. Car is a beast, it just took it like a champ

Also went to C&C and drove some backroads with a couple guys from NAM3F, the Golden Gate Bridge was on the way:

Drive up to Portland was great. But 2nd night at hotel in Oregon not so much.

Someone broke my driver's side rear view mirror. The entire housing as broken off from the base plate and was just lying on the ground near my rear wheel.

Security cam did not get footage of the vandalism in action, only the alleged aftermath where a guy walked by the driver's side of my car around 10:45 P.M. last night. After emerging into frame from behind the concrete post, it's apparent something happened because his friend (about 25' away) turned towards him, and the alleged perp stopped kind of looked back and pointed, and then continued on.

This was an hour after I came back from getting food. My brother found it at 5 A.M. and woke me up. Not the news I wanted to wake up to, especially after only 3.5 hrs of sleep. Oh well. Had Hillsboro PD come make a report.

Not sure why he decided to take that route from the uncovered parking lot, his friend took the traditional route (along where the cars would drive). He walked through a planter and then through a tight space between my car and a concrete post. The alleged perp was way to girthy to fit through the space (I saw the security cam footage).

Parts alone is about $1000.

Anyways, onto the photos:

Yep, super frustrating. This was at the Aloft hotel Hillsboro-Beaverton (1705 NE Amberglen Pkwy, Hillsboro, OR 97006).

It seems like it was the exception rather than the norm for this place, according to a couple of the employees. I asked a different front desk person if they recognized the two guests, maybe they came down to check out, but they did not. Employee said those two might have gotten a key card from the paying guest.

My dad has been driving the car around, but does not recall hitting the bumper. He must have had the music on and drove too quickly up one of those steep California lot entrances, scraping the bottom of the bumper. Must’ve hit it so hard the fog light trim flew off.
I spent cumulative hours fixing this bumper and eventually got it right using the plastic weld method. I hope It doesn’t need to be rewelded, otherwise I’m probably looking at a new bumper entirely.

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkSorry about that. It stinks, especially for mint OEM bumper.

Actually, it wasn’t mint or OEM lol. When I bought the car in 2017 it was in worse shape than it is now.
My dad thinks someone might have accidentally hit the bumper while he was parked somewhere, but I see no cracks or scratches.
The little door that people install offset license plates on was open though…maybe someone was trying to tow the car?

The last picture shows the point of impact.. I feel your pain, some idiot a few years ago was carrying a dresser in the back of his pickup and a drawer came out and whacked me in the same spot. I was lucky - I just broke the foglight and plastic trim piece.

I don’t see it. You mean the yellow spot? That’s just pollen

There are massive paint cracks and chips consistent with extreme bending on the bumper. I know this because I whacked the shit out of my old bumper before getting rid of it. They are above the yellow spot.

[ZHPizza]

Probably caught it on a curb backing out of a parking spot. I've made the MTech bumper on the wagon look like that a few times [emoji854]

It’s actually funny now that I think of it: all 3 members of my immediate family have managed to damaged my bumper and or fender liner from forgetting that it’s a low profile vehicle

Ben, I know how it feels needing a tow like this. I went thru this with my M3 many years ago with Botond as my passenger. It was an adventure since it happened in New Jersey on the Garden State Parkway and I knew a local indy shop near where my fuel pump failed so I got a tow to the shop and the owner happened to have one available.... lucky but expensive day...

Damage from yesterday's accident. (See general forum)

Right fog and mount is 86'd, large crack that used to be a surface crack, and the entire bumper sits kind of wonky now.

All told, not too bad.

He got his car approved at RHD Speedmaster, which specializes in homologating JDM cars (including those with widebodys). He got it approved there as a low volume special build I believe (like how you would approve a car you built in your shed). All for a price of course. Still not as easy as it sounds though, there are 0 legal wheels that fit the widebody (or at least he couldn't find any). He got E39 aftermarket wheels with massive spacers, so the fitment, while OK at first glance, isn't quite up to typical widebody standards.

I added almost 2k miles in these 3 months, including a quick trip to San Antonio TX. The alcantara interior is in great condition: no stains, holes, rips, or discoloration on the seats. The car drives very nice, the suspension feels tight.
