3 SERIES 93 Report post Posted February 10, 2009 (edited) Robert is a member of Bimmersport - 65GTMUSTANG. From memory he's from Levin. I saw it in person a couple weeks ago at the BMW car clubs show and shine in Peka Peka. He has done a very very good job! It very tidy. The sounds it produces is beautiful. Edit: If you do a search on here you can find all the info from start to finish on it. Edited February 10, 2009 by 3 SERIES Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apex 693 Report post Posted February 10, 2009 That’s cool… Would rather a M3 for similar money Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CamB 48 Report post Posted February 10, 2009 (edited) Looks good - I remember the build thread. For 300hp in an E36, I'd almost rather an M3 suspension brakes etc ... with that V8. I am such an oik. (I am also all talk, as I could probably sell my S50 and trans for more than the cost to install a Toyota V8 and box, and I'm not gonna).

My apologies. Perhaps the " " icon in my original post did not adequately convey my appreciation for this car, and inability to acquire it. When I said auto, easy to drive, and small, I was merely re-affirming that I could not possibly justify purchasing this car despite my obvious want of it.

Or upgraded items? sweet as nothing like shooting the breeze.I am just running the standard brakes which pull up the car just as good as when the six was in it.Have less weight over the front axle as the 1uz is lighter than the six Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
