Not sure if KSD Will know. The places I have in mind are either garage 808 or SVG Autoworks.

Nice! I agree the colour of the rim will appeal more..

Lets hear more about the supercharger option...

added an 04 330i to the family...im impressed by the consumption, my 04 320i auto is heavier on juice.

Very nice rides you have there. I got 6.6 sitting in 6th gear.
The supercharger is an option but the moola.

Anyone with an estimate for a charger on a e46 330i?

The 04 330i belonged to Kish2604 once upon a time, have a look at his threads.

Ah! If I could find a good E46 330i :fencelook:

Awesome awesome car man congrats!

I'd stick with OEM rims, just my 2c.


Will be interested to know how much the style 32's are going for when you make the sale official. :thumbs:

I don't mind the style 45's I have...just think that 32's might look better...

I guess cams are out of the question..:fencelook: I found this on Beisan systems website.

Engines with higher lift (performance) cams are more susceptible to having a vanos rattle, and the rattle is likely to be worse. The higher lift cams compress the valve springs further and thus cause higher spring forces. This causes stronger camshaft lashes which engage the splined shaft and axial play components harder.
This affects US 3-series E46 ZHP performance package cars and cars with aftermarket performance cams (Schrick)

Surely companies that make aftermarket cams should know the above.

Agree/Disagree?

The problem is whether they know of it or not they won't change anything....there is very little reason for fitting performance cams if it doesn't increase lift.

If it worries you and you really want to change the cams, why not just lock the vanos?

If you're not a fan of the style 68's, then style 135's is the only alternative in my book, bar BMW Performance style 269 wheels.

The style 44s on yours is also very nice.

Weird how close it is to the style 96s, but yet, the 96 is butt ugly.

I sent TMS a mail to enquire. Ill wait and see what they say.

Who imports Schrick cams on the forum?
