As the topic says.
Post your rally / off road E30 specs.
Do you race in a class / organization? Or is it just for fun to explore forest roads etc?
Post your setups along with at least one picture.
Yeah, I might be brainstorming... known a few people who did this stuff for fun and would love to see who is still doing this and those who got a little more serious with it too.

- This genuine E30-generation BMW M3 is a stunning Clubman Group A rally car conversion of the marque’s iconic modern classic performance saloon.
- Under the bonnet is the correct 2.3-litre S14 inline-four, which has been modified with steel rods, crank and forged pistons,Schrick camshafts and larger valves, and drives the rear wheels via a five-speed Getrag 265/5 ‘dog-leg’ manual transmission and an upgraded limited-slip differential.
- The car is believed to have covered somewhere in the region of 68,000 miles and the engine has been freshly rebuilt some 350 km ago. The transmission has only test km on the unit since being rebuilt.
EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES
- This M3 is finished in a red and white Motul/Bastos livery, peppered with period-correct supplier logos, including those for Prodrive, Serpico and Pirelli.
- The car rides on a set of 17-inch gold Compomotive alloy wheels shod in Michelin tyres on the rear axle and Dunlop tyres on the front axle.
- Inside, the cabin is painted white with a full welded in roll cage which extend to the turrets front and rear, and features two black Sparco race seats with six-point red Sabelt harnesses, a carbon-fibre trimmed dashboard, an OMP BMW steering wheel, lightweight door cards, a fire extinguisher, a short-shift gear lever and new hydraulic handbrake, real time air/fuel ratio displays, as well as the standard item just below.
- Other modifications include AP Racing brakes and Bilstein fully adjustable suspension with adjustable alloy top mounts, and an uprated limited-slip differential and drive shafts.
- The car comes with its Spanish road registration documents and competition logbook, a document detailing its suspension settings, the car’s engine mapping software and cables, an engine build sheet, a dynamometer power readout, tyre compound details and a selection of spares including rare and expensive magnesium OZ Racing wheels, a full set of wet wheels and tyres, suspension arms and a cylinder head.
