For the past 2-3 years I have been working on different model BMW’s as a practice exercise for when I found the car I have been dreaming about since I got into BMW’s, the infamous E30 M3.
Today I was fortunate enough to find and strike a deal on a 1988 Hennarot E30 M3! Purchase price was $5600. It is far from pristine condition but I plan on putting some effort into it and turn it into a street legal autocross/track day car. I am picking it up on Monday and it’s heading straight to my mechanic. The clutch pedal goes straight to the floor so I need to get that fixed but according to the owner once that is fixed it is drivable.
The interior is completely stripped except for the front seats but I will be installing a roll cage and racing seats very soon so that saves me some time. Here is a list of current mods. This is all according to the seller but I was able to verify most of it visually when I went to look at it today. I will be changing a few things and refreshing what is already there but most of the mods I would have done myself.
S52 motor
dyno'd 223 rwhp and 221 rwtq
KA Motorsport Intake
Bigger throttle body
Mishimoto aluminum radiator
Stewart upgraded water pump
Spal pusher fan 2900 cfm
Evans waterless coolant NPG-R
Raceland headers
3 inch single exhaust
new injectors- 24 LB.
new oil change
Eibach springs
Bilstein shocks
Ireland engineering rear sway bar
So this is a great start for what I am trying to do.
