332is Progression

Haha, ya. Between making time and ordering parts, this has by no means been a quick build.

Update!

Just got back from a 2 week business trip to China. I injured my rib shortly before the trip though, so I am super limited in what I can do physically for a little while. Sucks, but gotta take it easy to I can heal and get back to it!

I did keep an eye out for wheel factories. I don't think we were in the right area though, haha.

I have more progress to report on the swap though! Believe it or not, haha.

I cracked my windshield before taking the M50 out because I opened my hood just a little too much without paying attention. Finally had a guy come out, remove the windshield from the parts M3, and install it on the almost fully functional 332is. No more "I <3 Boobs" sticker though.

I then installed the brand new cowl cover I got from the dealership as well as the windshield wipers(exciting I know). Don't worry, this update gets a little better.



I also installed the Sparco's I've had sitting in my garage for close to 2 years(maybe it was actually more, who knows). No more Vader induced back pain! You may recognize them from SeanDub's old Alpine M3.



I then had to make my CF Dinan intake fit. I had to trim the Bimmerworld intake elbow by about an inch, and the 3.5" coupler I got by half an inch. It now lines up great with the bracket/heat shield/pass through or whatever you want to call it.

Jesus... I thought you sold this thing at this point lol. Congrats on getting it running.

[B Rod]

Thanks guys!



Got some more work done today. Hasn't looked like this in over 2 and a half years!

Still running really rough, but having the exhaust on is another step closer to it being streetable again.
