and what steering rack are you running

stock.. probably switch to a Z3 rack later one down the line

[RyanZ06]

sorry to be off topic - but can you use the e28 735i booster as well?
oh* and sick car :)

i dotn know, i'm very size limited with the M52.... I have about 2mm clearance between my brake booster and intake manifold.

735i? master cyl, and a E21 brake booster... They dont have a lot of feel, but stop the car well...

there is a video from the track... it was a last minute insertion so it's not relaly the best angle.. but you can see and hear the car go :) dont mind the stock steering wheel, i already replaced it.


brakes are OEM rotors with hawk blue's front and DS3000's rear. stainless lines and rebuilt calipers of course... 735i? master cyl, and a E21 brake booster... They dont have a lot of feel, but stop the car well...

Since Lammers like to rag on E30's I was seriously jonesing watching you two.

Like i said, this was version .5 of my build, first tiem out to the track. he'll need a lot better than a 57.0 to keep up with me next time. :p

Sunday was a fast day, period. My buddy with the Hellrot '95 M3 tore off a 1:57.0 (just one lap, mostly 1:58-9), and I got you around 1:58.3, but I didn't get all of your laps.

yeah, i know joe. My in car timer did 1:57.6

Keep in mind my car is about 2650lbs and only makes about 175whp. :)

Thanks. I beat the previous GTS-2 lap record by about 2.8 seconds, but I know of a few cars in the works that should give me a run for my money. :)

You were MOVING when I worked the track on sunday. Should be pretty competitive in GTS-2.

damn thats awesome, those tires are fat as hell. Rubbing on those fenders at all or is it stiff enough (and have enough camber) that you can get away with it?

just a touch of rubbing. lots of fender work and stiff springs. (500front/800 rear)..

stock sway bars :)
