My 330d build

Hi there,



I thought I'd start my first thread on this forum of my 2002 facelift 330d. Its a 135kw (184hp) 390nm. Mileage is 417 000kms and still going strong



Mods to date are:



Koni Str.ts

Eibach prokit 330d specific springs (I had H&R 6cylinder springs on and they slammed it to the ground)

Full powerflex bushes

Sway bar end links

Complete tie rods

EGR delete

Swirl flap delete

EGR cooler delete

Downpipe and mid pipe decat

Racechip pro2 (not on the car yet finishing the manual conversion)

Turbo reconditioned original turbo never recond never replaced at 417k kms recond it for peace of mind.

Subframe reinforcement

And probably a bunch I've forgotten



Anyway I'm busy with a manual conversion. I'm using a E90 330d 6speed manual gearbox. I've had to get a custom adaptor plate and flywheel spacer made for it to fit. I was initially told it would fit but oh well. And the gearbox carrier mounting points I had modified. The conversion is almost complete just some coding left and need to pick up my propshaft which was shortened.



Anyway here are a bunch of pics through the processes I've been through. I hope they make sense its taken from my thread on the local bmw forum. I know forum users a pic whores. But maybe I've over done it :D



The car after it had a respray (decent job but I'm going to have to get it redone again, not quite happy)







Getting its downpipe







Cars mileage and average consumption before decat







With the H&R springs, if I cornered hard and hit a slight bump the bumper would scrape.







The manual gearbox going in the car







Bunch of parts for the conversion and the propshaft and manual diff











Autobox out!!!











Manual clutch and brake pedal in!!! Dash stripped :wow:
