'11 E90 330d LCI

[EthanJappie]

Morning Gents,

Recently picked up a clean '11 330d LCI. The previous owner took very good care of it. It already has S/W, DP and an Alpina TCU flash.
It apparently makes 230kw and 700nm, I will need to confirm this on a dyno.
It pulls pretty hard but at the same time is quite calm and quite when it needs to be.

Ive got a paint correction and ceramic coating lined up soon and a few other visual mods just to finish it off.

Any wheel suggestions would be great

Edit: Cant seem to upload any pictures, will try again just now

Great buy! Where do you plan on doing the paint correction and ceramic coat? Looking to have mine done too. Maybe we can group buy and get a better price. I'm looking at OCDetailing for now.

That boot spoiler looks deadly.

Congrats bud.

Check the gearbox and if need be get it serviced

Also check with Firi for the dtm style headlights

And gavsadler for the 1M rims

Congrats.
These 30d's are great cars! All round power and frugality!

Thank you for the kind words gents. Im absolutely in love with the torque, the car drives like a dream.

Thanks @Firi for hooking me up with the M4 spoiler, I cant stop looking at it.

@michael.joseph Will definitely be getting them, just want to get its first service and gearbox service done first.
Still looking around for some decent wheels to slap on, not keen on reps. Will most certainly give Gavsadler a shout

An incredibly long-overdue update.

The car has been running fantastic without a hitch, been serving it regularly ie. Filters, oil, brakes etc

Whats been done so far:

1. E90 M3 Bumper and M4 spoiler from Firi
2. BMW Roof racks from a fellow Fanatic
3. LED Angel Bulbs
4. New DP and Straight w/ 335i diffuser
5. RamAir intake

Coming Up:

• I purchased a set of BC Racing V1 VM coilovers which should arrive by mid-July
• New set of lock nuts

Fitting the new bumper after the respray at my uncles place :


First trip with it down to Clarens was effortless.


I think the next day after fitting the roof racks. Slight wind noise from them with the sunroof open but nothing hectic.


And lastly the exhaust. Its a 3" all the way back with 101mm black chrome tips.

The sound has changed dramatically and hardly sounds like a diesel on partial and WOT. The butt dyno says that the responsiveness has also improved a bit.
