So the "finished" product....
The drivetrain conversion took about 4 months in total but the result is very clean. Other than needing a duct to match up the intakes, the engine bay looks OEM.
The M3 DCT shifter was used and the control switches housed in a small extra panel in the console tray. I'm planning to refine this later by moving the shift control to where the 'Sport' button is and using the E82 TCS off button.
Seats were swapped for Recaro Sportster CS with some custom F80 style belts.
1M mirrors were added.
My car has S430A (auto tilt, fold & tint). For this spec the RHD part numbers are:
L Mirror 51168051925
R Mirror 51168051926
L Cover 51168043225
R Cover 51168043226
L Glass 51168041951
R Glass 51168041952
The first track outing...
