E30 325i Rag-Top 2956 Report post Posted February 18, 2009 Got sent these pics from our resident Dirty Drifter at work, hence the titles "real BMW". Not sure why anyone would go to those lengths to modify a 3-series for drifting, and as for putting a 2JZ into it as the engine transplant - I would have thought the body would have rejected it? It has a certain presence about it though, and would look quite intimidating in the Open Class Racing, so not all bad. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Driftit 2078 Report post Posted February 19, 2009 (edited) Drivers name is Ueo. He is one of the worlds best. He is most well known for being able to out "Drift" cars with 2-3X more power than his little 200hp AE86 Toyota. And the BMW would happily accept the 2JZ. Which is far superior to most common BMW 6's. And of course they are cheap as chips in Japan. And have massive support for aftermarket parts. Making it much cheaper for them to maintain.

Boost Junky 1 Report post Posted February 19, 2009 (edited) Id rep a 2J anyday! Such an awesome motor! I always thought the bmw motors were rated a better motor, you read on some of the overseas forums and you will find alot of people on there rather turbo the bmw 6's as they flow much more freely and still love the boost/power. Whoa is that bmw his car? Seen that video along time ago would have never thought he would own a bmw haha...
