    My 335i Project(Guy who drove with a M30 in his trunk)

    What makes this project different?
    • Daily Driver
    • Keeping A/C
    • Budget build but correctly built
    • Ensuring maxium cooling potential
    • Turbo


    Enjoy!

        Last update until Tuesday...

        Finishing balancing the budget and getting the M20 stuff sold, *Cough*Buy some of my M20 stuff!*Cough*.
        Tuesday, I am going down to the junkyard to verify all my parts are there, and marking which cars have them.

        If I can play my cards right I can purchase my M Tech II stuff with the left over budget.

            Yeah, for 3 Grand. Idk about that, unless it is actual Genuine BMW, never mounted, its not worth the price. I was going to get a Kopi Kit for 799.

                After working this weekend, will be parting out the M20B25 tomorrow, hopefully securing enough to secure my swap Tuesday.

                  If you get a big 16" SPAL pusher, that will be plenty. It's going to be tough to fit a puller in there.

                    The project is currently dead in the water. My donor car has been sold for scrap by the junkyard. Currently looking for another M30B35, so far I have found a guy selling a 88 735i for $1000. I would take what I need and part the rest, anyone have any experience doing that? Also a road trip to California may be in order, just found a M30B35 with 5 Speed Transmission for only $400.
