Looks awesome man, Great work.
Any plans for a new coolant res?

On the Christmas list.

What about the bumpsteer?

None whatsoever.

[F34R]

Awesome job, looks super clean.

[MR 325]

I'll say this... Glad to see you got it (mostly) done.

How does it drive? As fast as you had hoped?

[Ray Smoodiver]

I love your attention to detail, and wish you hadn't scrubbed all your build threads.

[JasonC]

Glad to see it finally posted up. Are you going to move the batt to the rear or keep it up front?

Am i on the ignore list?

[MR 325]

Am i on the ignore list?

Mods can't be set to "ignore" don't worry. :)

[HarryPotter]

I still can't believe you did all that pointless work on the subframe to run a fucking mechanical fan, that's warranting physciatric attention, but the cars fucking disgustingly clean. I fucking love it.

Whoops, sorry missed your post. For now I'm keeping the battery where it is, but I'd like to move the battery to the trunk, and remove my 325i coolant reservoir and install my new M3 coolant reservoir in the battery tray where it belongs in the 333i. That's a project for this Christmas though.

So clean

[Wh33lhop]

That mechanical fan is SICK. Wish I had one, stupid inadequate electric SPAL.

[White325is]

^^^ No doubt, I will be adding one to my whip very soon. The electric fan I have sucks.

Give him a break will you? He did alot of work and it all works right. Shows he didn't half ass the job. Too bad about him scrapping all the build threads.

So had alpina not done their research when they used an electric fan?

I will give you the attention to detail and cleanliness, it definately looks good, although the front subframe, oilpan clearance etc etc kills it for me.

[Raxe]

Electric fan AND mechanical fan is where it's at.

Andrew, I thought of your project when I read this quote in Bimmer Magazine

"If you don't move the motor back, you lose the factory viscous clutch and fan, and that's a huge driveability issue. Electric fans are not an equal substitute, as I learned on my e21", Cain explains, "The front of the M54 six is in almost the same spot as the M10 four-cylinder, so cylinders 5 and 6 are back where the heater used to be. The passenger loses a bit of legroom, but I don't have to worry about the engine overheating."

At least you're in company in doing whatever it takes to keep the mechanical fan. All this guy Cain did is drop an M54 in his 2002 and and twin turbo it. What does he know...?

Edit, the 2002twinturbo website might be unstable, so here's some information on his 2002 in Bf.c.
