Making a track toy - E30 M3

[drifty340i]

Man thts awesome! i agree on the small air filter point

[AndrewLang]

I would do that with an E30, but not an E30 M3, looks like fun though, its just its going to get damaged and when it does I would rather it not be an M3.

[Axxe]

It fits :)

Do you think he could have found a SMALLER air filter?

[Jand3rson]

No shit. It was started by the same moron.

Relax the attitude.

[madjurgen]

No shit. Even if youre 15(:roll:), you'll still be filling up at the GAS station the day you die.

lol

Theres a fossil fuel discussion somewhere... I don't have much to add except that I seriously doubt we will be without it in any of our lifetimes.

[madjurgen]

Give it 3-4 decades and I bet we will be off fossil fuels anyhow. If you want to run a $18.00 / gallon fossil fuel rig it will be at a private track. Or at least if we are running a fossil derivative it won't be worth trying to run in a S14.

one of the stupidest things Ive read on r3v.

I love the pics, the car looks great. Do BBS LMs grow on trees out there?

Yes there is a BBS forest just northwest of Munich

I really like the BBS LM wheels but they are expensive and I´d always be afraid to damage them on the track. Maybe I´ll get a set later to use on
the road (if they will clear the Massive brakes I´m thinking about getting).

As for now I will most likely get Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 wheels in
white or black.

PS. Just to be clear - the car with the LM´s and all the blue hoses is not mine.

Isn't that motor right there an s38?

Nope. Euro S50. S38's have a flat valve cover like a stretched S14. Similar (sort of) intake mani too.

Congrats on the purchase! Never mind the S14 purists, they bring a good point and a wealth of knowledge, but for some reason refuse to think outside the box. You sound like you know where you plan to start and the finished result, and what to do to get there.

I say swap all the motors you want. Give it 3-4 decades and I bet we will be off fossil fuels anyhow. If you want to run a $18.00 / gallon fossil fuel rig it will be at a private track. Or at least if we are running a fossil derivative it won't be worth trying to run in a S14.

Anyhow, looks like fun!

I sure hope that supercharger will fit into the e30 engine bay, the way you have it pictured in the e36 bay, it will never fit

It fits :)

It´s a s50b32 with an ASA supercharger. Here is a pic of the engine in a stillborn e36 racecar:



I sure hope it will be quick and alot of fun
