Hello, I introduce myself: DAO, and I live in western France. As my nickname implies I am an industrial designer. Have a M3e30 and only e30 was a dream of every boy and since April 2007 I reached that dream. And it is happiness !!!!!!!! From 02/02/1987 (see plate) is a standard 200hp décatalisé and all options. a copy is particularly well preserved in the interior. I have bills since late 1992, two records of expertise and revised. The total M3 complete indifference 224,000 kms and I am the 4th and final hand. The body shell is currently at work and there is not a simple painting to do. The program is simple .... as the true and beautiful parts AC Schnitzer carbon here and there but also repackaging complete chassis and engine. The value of the M3 e30 soaring, I asked myself the question (a little philosophical tell me you) to know if I should remetre 100% stock, or if I should continue to keep my pieces ACS. If I had an SE, or other EVOII, OK, the question does not arise. Well, it is primarily a S3 2.5L Sport gave me the virus, then you will understand my choice .... and then, these are pieces preparer time. I also rim 16 "original in almost new condition and all other documents necessary for a rebate origine and integral part of my stock M3. I like this side "Doctor Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" For the circuit, I get a set of wheels e34 M5 "Turbine" to preserve the other wheels.
Hi Fabien, looking good. I suppose you already have the engine bay painted as well? Did you give thought to welding in the carbrio strut tower reinforcements (you can source these from BMW)? John
Hi John and thank you for accepting me here No, I do not call for reinforcements, but I have thought well I'd occasionally circuit, and I find that it does not really justify for me. Other random images:
Hi Fabian and welcome. Car looks nicely sorted, well done. What are your future plans for the M3 ? Cheers Thomas
hello, this car is staying in the garage for 3 years, time to save some money. It is almost finished, lacking only the pistons, which should arrive at the end of month. Keep the engine power of 200hp, but the chain tensioner will be a 3.2L M3 and various small improvements. My ambitions for this car are measured, but I want to put it back in original condition, but adding all the accessories AC Schnitzer. Of course I Motorsport accessories in stock (spoiler, steering wheel, rétrviseurs, gear knob, rims 16 "...) I still have complete winding I had to do with my brother, but due to rescent events, I will seek assistance from "Sport & Vintage auto " http://www.sport-vintage-autos.fr/alan/lasociete.htm is a self-employed who work as self Porsche, Caterham ... and is starting to help me back my self. In theory, the car should roll late December or early January to keep it as long as possible In this regard, I want to ask you for the links, documents and other info about the winds in a good condition S14. Because we will need help I think, and I count on you Thank you
I be more then happy to try to help you out. I know it is difficult to translate certain words, by "winds", what do you mean with that ? Thomas
Little detail that bothered me not long ago ............ Thickness 0.65 mm to compensate for a bore of 24 mm on the box, with a shaft of 22.7 mm on the aluminum elbow. The whole is mounted in close game without glue (as originally). Very nice work John
