Thanks man! did more to the car then I planned a year ago haha. (didn't plan on doing championship until 2016, but things change haha)
Thanks! Spend some time on the car again today, front end is starting to look like one from a car again haha, just have to wait on my new front bumper which should be delivered tomorrow.

Because the original bumper has some damage, and just doesn't look that cool, I ordered this M3 style bumper. Normally not a fan of M3 bumpers on non-M BMW's, but for this money, the better cooling (and more room for an intercooler.. euhm hehe) this was the only option for me. More bodywork updates will be coming soon, splitters and diffusers will make this car look even better (I hope!)
Got it of a mate who used it on his E36, I'll have a look later if I can find a logo from where it's from! I'm in love SENSEOFSPEED-5639 by KevDutchie, on Flickr SENSEOFSPEED-5635 by KevDutchie, on Flickr SENSEOFSPEED-5645 by KevDutchie, on Flickr
As Venray has a strict db limit, I don't think I will be welcome with a straight pipe exhaust XD Might be making a second "Weeze/Venray" exhaust with mufflers, but the Nurburgring is the main goal for now.
The rear lower-control arms that Silver Project made custom for me came in yesterday, hope I can get the rear camber to 0 degrees now. The custom "E46 to E36 control arm" bushing came in as well, thanks to a team mate of mine.
Had a great weekend! appart from an accident I had with the mini.. Wasn't my fault fortunatly! But still done a lot with the beemer, picked up the straight pipe exhaust (with rear muffler which you can see through.. hehe) Right front is done finally, left front wil come later! And done the front bumper. engine will get mapped coming saturday!
arrr i was dead set on a e36 now looking at this my brain is telling me different.... you make me wanna get a e46 new bumper definitely sets it off more
Finally got the car mapped, mapped on 102 octane fuel, max throttle body position from 80% to 98%, got rid of the o2 sensors after cat, 6800rpm limit, and 1000rpm stationairy. Als testfitted the straight pipe exhaust, what a sound!
Time for finishing touches. Made room for the fender flares, installed the front tow strap, added some stickers (more to come though), rear subframe should go back underneath tonight or tomorrow. Car should be done by coming weekend! can't wait.
