Open Track Day!!

HELL YEA FUCKING RIGHT!!!!!



so this is the first time Ive had my project E30 on an actualy track since Ive built it over the 2016/2017 winter. It has a buch of parts form suppliers on here and the Turbo kit is a Kamotors kit!! Im super happy with it soo much hard work and a great reward...


Side note 2nd gear is giving me issues I need a new transmission and I think I need Meth injection the car wants to cut out sometimes see at 2:09 on the video below.


Any pointers on running meth?

high speed right turn + low fuel = fuel starvation because the pump is on the right side

looks like fun times!

Is this plug and play for the M20? is it the same length as a getrag 260?

Ive been putting off the transmission stuff because well I don't know much about my options

Why do you think you need a new transmission?

This. ^

A swirl pot setup will cost a fraction of that, and will likely solve your issue - the same issue which plagues pretty much every E30 that sees a track.

I can't shift from 1st to 2nd or from 3rd to 2nd fast enough.. 2nd gear is the issue I can get it in but by the time the shift is done I've lost all boost, its the original transmission with 325,000 miles on it,,, allegedly the OD isn't working....

I really would like to order the one I linked earlier http://diffsonline.com/getrag-5-spee...B#.WX-wx7GZNE6 But this is a quote from that page "This unit is stock on a E30 325, M3, E46 and and some others." thats not correct is it? maybe the bolt patterns are the same but what about the length? I've sent them an email but no reply yet. I'm still researching it...

Also Ive been reading other post and you're most likely correct on fuel starvation. I think I'm looking for any excuse to add methanol injection...

If I were in the market for one I'd check with Andrew at DriveGear.

I emailed him We talked about upgrading to an E36 ZF transmission but Im worried Ill need to buy linkages, bushings and a new driveline..... again I already replace all that stuff a few months ago, even a new driveline because the U joint on the old one was shot. so Im staying stock I placed an order with him for a rebuilt 260 thanks for the referral!
