318is Turbo

Recommended Posts

Hi all -

Have now finished fixing up the car to a point where I think it is OK. Could still do with a bit more tuning at light throttle - but at least it isn't spewing out oil and boosting weerdly. Have old pics here - will grab some new ones tonight before I whack it on trade me.

Anyway;

Cosmetic:

NZ New 1990 318iS Coupe in Brilliant Red

All iS options - black headliner, Recaro seats in tartan like pattern.

Illuminated gear knob, Illuminated (orange) VDO Boost/Oil Pres/Oil Temp gauges.

15" Weaves.

iS front lip.

Mtech1 sideskirts

Mtech2 wing.

Smoked indicators.

Badass mesh instead of headlight for air intake :)

///M spraypainted Cosworth intercooler.

Power windows.

Mechanical.

M42 motor.

JE forged pistons.

Mosselman M42 exhaust manifold/intake boot.

Garret T3 Turbo from Sierra Cosworth - Internally WG.

Sierra Cosworth Intercooler.

Motec M4 ECU. Individual coil direct fire ignition. Electronically controlled boost (from Motec)

Quaife Limited slip diff.

H&R springs with Koni Single Adjustable Shocks.

Too many mechanical mods to list in detail.

Stats:

165 rwkW @ 13 psi. - shitloads of torque (350 Nm , dyno dynamics dyno).

Possible mid 13s 1/4. Have run 14.00 on much less power/street tyres.

Potential for much more power with slightly different turbo/intercooler setup.

Mileage is irrelevant to this car as it has been rebuilt. But I think the odo reads around 170k.

It has been 100% reliable and is extremely quick. A baffle is rattling in the exhaust - but the large exhaust leak has been fixed and the car has been tuned correctly by Gavin Bellars @ Hi Velocity.

Car is extremely tidy - has a rusty sunroof (like they all do) but there is no other rust in the car.

Asking $15500 o.n.o You could not build a car like this for anywhere close to that price. Serious offers only.
