    Absolutely BADASS E21 (56k, I'm done trying...)

    :shock: There are no words. 2.8 M20 stroker, and enough mods to bring a tear to my eye.

      interesting. unnecessary exhaust, the usual crap tire fitment, and that damn momo wheel, ug.


      cool otherwise though. I think the dichotomy between the stach and the fake CF on the wheel says it all: "a good effort, tainted by taste..." :P

        Wow, that car is unbelieveable. I love the valve cover, and the STACK dash, and the wheels, and the lights, and the intake mani/ITBs. Well... everything, that car is sliiick.

          I'd change a few things on it, like the steering wheel, quad exhaust, and stretched tires, but the rest is insane. I love that color too.

            Minus the exhaust, which I also find lame, the rest goes well on that car. Those were seriously the last things I even noticed. That car is incredible.

                  What's wrong with the exhaust? As long as it's an open element design, it would be sweet.

                  I gotta contact that guy and see what the story is with that ITB, that's a pretty trick looking setup.

                        Trent: Not too bad, love the S14, but the wheels and side skirts just kill the entire car for me.

                        English translation of the page (rough):

It is a 323i graphite metallic BJ 6/1981. From 1997-2000 I divided and only with new parts developed the car. The interior: He was eliminated completely, the Recaro of seats was replaced by Sparco Rev, then I had inserted still another carbon cockpit and an aluminum overroll bar, the blower box and the rear seat many to the weight reduction to the victim. Likewise I cut open and on the most necessary limited the wiring harness. The chassis: I have shortened Koni yellow in connection with H&R feathers/springs blocked, additionally am in front and in the back cathedral props from aluminum installed. The brake assembly was not yet largely changed, in front and in the back punching and slit disks with Stahlflexbremsschlaeuche. The wheels: OZ Futura 9*16 et14 is in front plus 10mm shims with 215/40/16, in the back is installed 10*17 et3 with 245/35/17. The engine: It is a M20 with 2,8l. The head comes from a 325i, was completely worked on, larger valves, strengthened rocker arms, adjustable nockenwellenrad, 312° cam shaft of Schrick. In the block are blocked forging pistons of meal, fine-heaved crankshaft, easier momentum and piston rods. For the mixture preparation a single throttle plant with 45ger serves throttle caps of VGS with Motronic and contactless ignition. The exhaust is a TZet fan elbow union with a high-grade steel exhaust system continuous 2mal60mm mark self-'s building. The engine carries 303PS with 7250 U/min high TDR number is 7800U/min, is transferred the whole of for 5 out a course sport transmission and an oh translation of 3,64:1. The vehicle weight amounts to 988kg. The luxury: A few luxury things are however nevertheless still remained, there would then be electrical window lifters, electrical sun roof, radio remote maintenance with zentralverriegelung and power steering. I hope my photo story am an enriching for your web page.

                              Because of the huge, white side skirts?

                              The red peice in between the tailights is pretty weak. That car is sick as hell though.
