Pasting this here for myself -

Still building but this is how my setup is going to be. Have nearly all the parts, starting the swap this fall.

1. Engine- 95 s50b30us bored over .5mm w/ overbore JE 11.5:1 Pistons + Stage2 P&P Head w/ Titanium Springs/Retainers + 3.5" Euro MAF + ARP Hardware. Motor will be completely rebuilt brand new.

2. Engine Wiring- e36m3 harness rewired for C101 plug

3. Drivetrain- G260 + swap brace + AKG mounts + BlunTech E30 Spec Stage 2 Kevlar Clutch Kit + stock flywheel machined to 11.5lbs

4. Shift Lever and Linkage- UUC short shifter + UUC DSSR twisted 10 degrees

5. Motor Mounts- AKG Mounts + E36 mount arms

6. Brake Booster- Havn't Decided Yet but debating switching to a wilwood or tilton pedal setup but probably just slide my stock setup over a tad to start with

7. Steering System- E30 Rack + Power Steering Delete Plate from Condor

8. Cooling System- Mishimoto Aluminum Radiator + Summit Racing Pusher Fan

9. Exhaust System- Ebay Stainless Steel Header + resonator instead of Catalytic Converter + Supersprint SS Exhaust

thank you.

i do really like it. i made some plastic spacers to use since my car was an airbag car.

but i decided against using them and i'm just waiting for the BMW spacer to show up so i can get it mounted.

i hate waiting on parts, have so many things coming in the mail right now. mostly just OEM parts from BMW to replace worn items.

Got a new steering wheel :) Need to get some washers as a spacer tomorrow so I can mount it..

turns out this was a counterfeit steering wheel. getting my $ back from ebay.

ordered a monte carlo from an authorized reseller.

shit picture. shit angle.

but i got my parts back from paint. and now the chassis is getting done.



both front/rear valance will remain textured but also be gloss on top of that. same for the rocker panels.
also had the iS lip done the same way. filler blanks for fogs and ducts are not-textured but glossy. and middle grill piece is satin.

got all new euro grills and kidneys. gonna look hot.
