Got one picture for now... I didn't see a better place to put this thread, and this isn't the place to tell me I what I should be doing swap wise, I'm set on the M54 swap, and I'll be swapping as much of the electronics from my donor 01 330ci as possible. Right now, I'm at the stripping down stages, taking it to the bare shell. I should be pulling the M54+trans fairly soon. Going to be running it on the stock ECU.

This is the car:




Enough people have already told me how shitty it is, I don't care, keep it to yourself.

I've got all the time in the world for this swap(unless I for some reason die), and budget isn't an issue, so I'll be updating this at every stage, but don't expect it to be a quick build... I also plan on doing some body work, that'll also be posted in this thread.
