Gus 5 Report post Posted March 9, 2009 hey lads, I know I've posted this before but I just can't find the old thread - I'm looking for as much info about the JPS 325i (black and gold e30) as possible. pics/videos/specs would be brilliant? I'm toying with the idea of making a rough replica of some description, but need a helluva lot more info Cheers! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gus 5 Report post Posted March 9, 2009 haha, I couldn't, I find the tourings look a bit silly going around the track...i don't really like the way they look. it's just convenient! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apex 693 Report post Posted March 9, 2009 Bit of both… But is easier to blame you than admit incompetence Anyway, back on topic. The JPS car was a pre facelift 325i that was used before BMW introduced the M3 write?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gus 5 Report post Posted March 9, 2009 yep, i think it only raced for 1 year, 1986. in australia? my copy would not be exact, something a bit different from other race cars and cheaper than an m3, still with some fake heritage. really, i just want an excuse to play with cars (like i need one!) pic attached is one of the only ones i have Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Palazzo 477 Report post Posted March 9, 2009 It did the Nissan Mobil in Wgtn too, same year as M3s, just slower. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
