But the body is orginal BMW E30 M3 1987/9. While the car doesn't have the S14 -engine, it still has an S -class engine. To be exact S38B38 M5 3.8 -litre engine. The car has not been build to be an exhibition car, it has build to be a pure rare using street/race car. I've build that car for 6-7 years. The changes we´re made, are not everything that we could have done, about the driving capabilities. Therefore must be noted, that the car is by on means, a perfect model to the streets, and inspected for legal road use. And the same time it is a race car and sertified to match FIA:s security standards. If someone starts to tell that my car is too much weighed to the front axle... Yes, I know, that my car is weighed to the front axle, and the handling could be better, if we moved the engine more closer to the center of the vehicle, and/or balancing all possible weight on the middle of the rear- and front axle. It would take major changes, for example to the oil circulation system and many more other systems. Our car might not be the best able to drive and it hase´nt been the idea, but it has been made to do better times on the racing track. I´ve driven on the Ahvenisto track, whitch is like a copy of Ring Nordschlife –track The track profile: http://ahvenistonfanisivut.com/profiili.html Look Ahvenisto track lap time record http://www.m5board.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=42393&page=5 My best driven lap on the Ahvenisto -circuit is 1.24,80, which is just behind to Mika Salo. He has driven that time with the Factory made Audi A4 Super 2000 racing car. Maybe not the best handling, but not slow either... Then what about on the next summer, when the car is: - 50kg:s lighter - powerfull - Group-A racing gearbox (direct gear connection) That we will see... Fast Regards Jari PS. My old stage 5. engine M5 3.8 (S38B38) output 320 KW pover and 470,6NM torgue whitout eny turbos or NOS... Power and torgue curves: old stage 5. engine...
Hello Jari, sounds like a serious engine in your car!!! And the spec. of the car sounds impressive too- not too many people running Ohlins outside race teams! Post some pictures please, would be really good to see it. cheers Conrad P.S. Oh, and welcome!!!
VERY nice work!!!!!!!! Good to see a car built "properly," really good attention to detail, and some very good components fitted, a really nice overall pachage, not just another "engine swap!!" Also good to see that you are not afraid to use it as it should be!!!! I really like this car!!
Hello Jari and nice see you here too. I have to say that, your lap time is very very fast at Ahvenisto. Hope that we see at Ahvenisto next summer. -Jani-
