  1. You will need a engine ECU and gearbox ECU. Im not 100% sure the gearbox will work with the engine ECU straight off, you will need to look into weather they are different or not. Glenn from botany motor werks would be able to tell you, or atleast find out some what. Also things to consider, the 330i subframe/mounts is different to a 325/320 one. They are alot stronger. Other things to consider is brakes. 330i rotors / calipers are larger. One thing you have to remember with things on the e46 is they are a sensor / loom mine field. Ray from Hell BM (see forums sponsor) had an m54b30 out of a coupe with auto gearbox and ECU's / loom about 2 weeks ago ... a place to check (also was wrecking a 330ci ) My new SuperSprint stainless exhaust was enough hassle changing from stock, getting the factory O2 sensors up and running again

  3. We wont be engine dynoing it if that's what you mean. The limmet car has dont most of the research for us, so will be following it more or less to the letter .. execpt of a couple of things; will be running 8:5.1 compression ratio and the 3.2ltr block instead of 3.0.

  5. do it ... need more FI's around here!
  6. not my bag .. but if you do stick it on .. leave it carbon fiber..
  7. Just use glass or carbon fiber and spend the money you save on buying a couple of sets. Bonnets aren't too expensive in carbon fiber. Your looking around 800-1100.
  8. If you pop another one (which I highly doubt) I think we are going to scrap the O-ringing idea and just go straight for what the drag guys in the states are doing and just use pyrimid rings and notch the head and block. You're more than welcome to take a look when its all apart and about to go back together later this year.
  9. hence my problem with old man tyres.. their shape is out dated
  10. Im sorry but thats a massive misconception "car audio experts" will tell you. The same people that will tell you Peak watts was made up by the speaker companies to make there speaks sound like they have more power. The same people that think tweaters up high and mids down low is fine for a "sound image" What happens to the people in the back seat?
  11. you what ! ?!?!?! PEOPLE >>> DOES ANYONE CARE ABOUT SOUND QAUILTY ANYMORE!!
  12. you can trick this by leaving the standard park bulb in some where on the circuit .. all it needs is resistance. Did it on mine no probs ...
  13. this is why I got an alarm ... alarm gets set off .. it keep sending pulses to the door locks to keep them locked .. key or no key.. and I get a nice text message saying my car is being f**ked with even if they get in ... engine wont work
  14. no story .. they just fit
  15. http://www.bavariansoundwerks.com/products...=261/browse=all what im getting ... MB Quartz brand speakers too
  16. maybe we should organise an akl meet soon ... bout time I got onto it ..
  17. Have your thought of 19inch E65/E66 20 (or something ) spoke wheels? ... they are not too expensive if you can find them second hand. I know someone who went to JCbmw for theirs and got some scratched ones some customer didnt want anymore. Got them refurbished to new / painted and put them on ... they looked great.
