I'm Baaaaaaaaaaccck! Well after a long hiatus from the world of BMWs, one kid, building a house, countless cars, and dabble in 911's, Z cars, and muscle cars... I needed another BMW in my life.
So I picked up this little 01 330Ci last weekend. The plan for now is to sort it out and make it a decent HPDE car and run it until the motor blows up. I have assembled some LSx goodies along the way as well, LS3, T56, and quite a few wiring harnesses for both the car and engine. I am just starting to read Thaniel's posts on the canbus solutions he has worked up. I'm SUPER IMPRESSED which is what made me decide to go about this in the first place.
The first bit of the thread is going to be working on things not pertaining to the actual LS swap since it is already a running and driving car.
A few quick shots:

The stance boy wheels are already being replaced tomorrow when my tire rack order shows up... I CANNOT STAND this!

The car is lowered on some unknown coilovers but the ride isn't bad at all. I was surprised. Eventually, it will probably get the Vorshlag treatment in that department as well.
Lots of little silly things to fix, like the blower motor, dash trim, door panels look like they need some love, etc.
Got some wheels in today...
