Project 328i - a lot to learn

So are you gonna get to Tynagh Paddy?

Done a bit of ripping the last few evenings, air con delete done, have all the bits there if anyone is looking for some parts.

Removed all the bits from under the dash also, not a nice job :mad:

Just need to get rid of some of the wires and tidy it up a bit.

Ended up removing the water valve (3 water pipes coming from it that went into the heating radiator under the dash),

I assume I can just join up the engine flow and return pipes now thats its removed??? :confused:

Little update;

Went to superdrift in Tynagh early in September, good days craic. Car overheated a good bit, water pump eventually went about 2.30.

Thats been fixed and wiring the fan at the front to a switch so its running constant now so hopefully that helps a bit and hopefully no harm was done from the overheating. Few pics from the day;

Getting ready now for Tynagh at the end of the month again.

After that I plan to remove the glass, fit perspex, cut doors down, possibly cut up the boot floor, wheel spacers, front camber, M50 manifold & BBTB hopefully, well thats the plan, thinking about some street car drift comp's next year hopefully :afro:

Got the car for a bit of a run today...:cool:
