Thank you so much for putting this video up! Been digging through heaps of forums trying to find how people have made them work on the ms43 and DBW. I saw your thread pop up so it’s great to see you go further into detail with this

Much respect for actually sharing how you made it work. I love your 330ci. At 40 I am just now building my first German car (I’m a GM tech) a 2002 330ci convertible hardtop. Yes it’s getting a Ls3/t56 swap but I have been enjoying the m54b30 it’s a nice little engine. Very smooth. What you did is great with the ITB and stock DBW throttle. I love it.

Really nice to see. Here i am struggling to take a starter motor out of a 20 year old m3 getting no where, put the car back together hoping to start it tomorrow and drive it to my specialist to take off everything i did and attack the bolts again after they bent my e torx! The jobs are easy its the bloody bolts that are the biggest pain in the ass! GOOD LUCK - Great Video, please keep us updated!

Heres a tip, buy a good example. Dont buy a 7 owner 120k mile dog poo and expect it to run like a top. Bought my 2004 60k mile 330i in 2014 for £2200. Its had tyres, a front caliper and servicing. Oh and a replacement plastic roller cover for the centre console. That was £14 😢
@thosenorthernblokes4 ай бұрын
