Panty Soaker 5000 - Beamer E90 LS Swap Blower Build

I got a E46 to LS swap next year.
Car is in such a good shape I'm having second thoughts.

They're out there.
 
I'm thinking of buying one to do the same. It seems I have to spend more than I want to buy one that's not beat to shit though.
I got lucky.
06 330i ZHP 6sp stick with 140k miles.
Plenty of cosmetic details to redo. Clear is gone. Couple missing trim pieces. Sagging headliner.
Running a little rough.
Tons of codes (36+ DTCs !! when I scanned it in front of the seller).
Took me 3 nights and $75 worth of parts and there aren't any now.
Runs like a champ, hence my second thoughts.

I gave wayyyy too little for it.
Deals are out there.
 
If you don't care about bmws, then why are you building one, lol. Just because you put a LS in it doesn't mean it's no longer a bmw.
Because it's got a great chassis for the money and is a known platform to swap.
Everything has been figured out. For once I won't custom make shit and will simply buy a swap kit and bolt most of everything on.
I almost went with a 350Z for the same reasons.

If I had the money I'd have simply bought a CTS-V, but I don't so I'm making my own version.
 
crank out in out and back in. Finally settled on arp mains. Pistons arp upgraded as well. Rings gapped 30/28.

Heads back out to mech. I fudged up the deck
