johnny g Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 I used BMWLand for a bit, but it went a bit crap. I tend to float around to be honest. What you after? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wez Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 Just looking for general info on the E46 330D M Sports, buying and tuning advice. I know the later models (2004 I think) have 204bhp standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_jekyll Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 first mod is to de fin the inlet, basicly there are fins in the inlet , these comonly come free and are swallowed by the engine , its quiet simple to remove them and then its fine .

AshBhp Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Dam good cars. Have swirl flaps removed as priority. A remap totally transforms the car. Recommend Autologic remap. Check front wishbones have no play in ball joints, as M sport ones cost Aprox £500 a pair. Full history a big plus. Give me a shout for any help.

ozz Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 http://www.bimmerforums.co.uk/ great bunch of guys. I'm selling my 330 CI sport (54plate) at the moment, love the cars. If you can spend the extra money, I'd be very tempted to go for the new shape 330d (E92), I think the diesel matches the petrol on 0-60 and thats without a remap!

Wez Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 The E90 33D M Sport could be an option and with a simple remap the power is increased to 271bhp and 600nm torque, not too shabby at all The 335D would be the one to get but out of my budget sadly, a remap should see something like 350bhp and 700nm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted February 6, 2011 Author Share Posted February 6, 2011 Had a look at a 123D M Sport yesterday, very nice, should hopefully get a test drive this week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
