    My 24v swapped 325is

    She just came out of the paintbooth with recent rust restoration,
    From this previous weekend


    Oh, if you take a closer look you can see what I got last weekend as a swap for my minty black interior



    My dirty bitch needs a wash (and the rest of the interior installed) but I'm so glad all the stupid little issues have mostly been ironed out. I bought 5-lug adapters for some rc090's I have, but I think I'm going to get megasquirt installed before that happens. We'll see.

    Pics after body's all stitched up and panels painted:

      Yo Sean, maybe a pic of the swap when you advertise it's swapped? Car looks good btw.

        You raise a valid point my man - it's mostly because I still have wire spaghetti sitting on top I need to eventually sort out now that everything works.

        Here's one, though, a keen eye will spot the JDM air filter mount.

          Have you buffed out the new paint yet? On the last pic you posted the fender looks a little dull.

            oh yeah, that was an old pic from before it even went into the bodyshop for the rust repair, in that pic it's not even painted yet

                          I ran without a fan on my S52 swap and I never had problems.

                            Same here. Just an aux fax wired into the temp radiator temp. sensor.

                            I guess that sort of counts as a fan.
