From this you will see what I mean about more power!

Well lets at least give it a go :-) I undertsand the complexity of the weight advantage in the corners however my driving style seems to suit the heavy old 6 pot up front.... If you have a look at the vids the old girl doesnt do bad in the corners for a heavy old M20 up front. The M3 can be caught,t...

To beat the S14's, your gonna be looking at around 270Bhp, maybe 280...but they might just get you in the corners..... Check out my in car vids... I can catch those pesky M3s in the corners :-) The dear old girl is also getting larger brakes , so I can also brake later thanI have been on the standa...

just being a 2.7 gives it about 210 doesnt it? there would be scope to upgrade cams,chip etc after that i would guess? Not disputing your advice however I have yet, to come up against a 2.7 out of the box that makes 210bhp... i think ( My opinion) BMWs marketing/data is very optimistic. I have seen...

My car weighs 1040kg... appreciate the S14 is loads lighter. However I feel surprinsingly more happy with weight over the front.. it suits my driving style

what crank do you have in your current engine? ETA... I have to Run NA for racing regs. The car is an original 325 i sport kindly donated by mummy MM for racing purposes. It runs in the TTRS as a 325e. This alows me to run a 2.7 under the regs. My predicment is more BHP... the current engine is str...

I also have a fairy godmother who will pay for it

my current 2.7 makes 220bhp... i need more

see my next thread !!!!

I am after some advice... really.. mainly around the M20. I know it is a wrong en..but for reasons I care not to get into we have to stay with an M20 2.7 NA.. Money no object what do we do to get big BHP

....... what is the prefered compression ratio for 2.7 M20s??? Apologies if this is has been discussed on previous threads. I am very new to the M20 and am being extrremely lazy in terms of searches. Has anyone achieved over 220bhp from a 2.7 M20? If so, if you do not mind discussing in a public for...

.... anyone has aquired from a 2.7 M20 ?

Interested to hear ????

Many thanks

I have not used Pagid RS29s on the road in my E30 however I had them on my E46 M3 CSL with AP 6 pots and they were never noisey and did'nt ever require warming up... Just my 2Ps worth !

"Pay Cheap ,Buy Twice"

I use Pagid RS29s on my Race 325. I wont use anything else now. As an Endurance Pad they dont have the initial bite of some of the other types of pad however progressive braking is excellent and they dont fade. You can get RS29s for around £165 from Performance Braking. The other plus side is that m...

I have a Facelift Original BMW one I can be persuaded to Part with For CASH

It was purchased in 2005 and used on the car for 2 races. Therefore is Like New.

Thanks. Was that for manual variant?

What was the Diff ratio fitted in the tech 2 325 i Sports ? ( circa 1989 )

thanks

Mine is the White one and not the Orange Beast !

195/50s, the 205's may cause concern as they foul on the Coilovers. Gaz Coilovers,with H&R Front & Rear ARBs.
The rear is high because of the weight transfer to the front under braking.

This is my sport in race trim.

Does anyone know what ARB links are required when fitting the H&R Rear ARB? I am being told that the std ones dont fit ?

Many thanks

The start of the race laps 1&2 from inside my car ( Borrowed Car )

Losing second and then avoiding a pile up to take 6th

Redstar Tyres in Braintree, Essex are one of the Few MPSC dealers and hold ample stock. I made many a visit whilst I had my CSL. I managed to plough through at least seven sets of them in 18 Months. Excellent track tyre. Not bad in the wet either. The only issue with them is standing water and their...

recieved this reply elsewhere ........ You can't run a power steered rack as a manual, or rather you could but it's a very bad idea. Without going into a long winded explanation of how power steering works, as I'm off to the ring in about 30 minutes..., you'll be running on a very soft initial stif...

All that I did on mine was to remove the PAS Pump and associated pipes. Then cut the pipes on the rack and either cap them or crimp the ends closed. Its a lazy/bodget and scarper way of doing it, howver it works fine. Most of the guys racing in the series did excatly the same thing. Deffinately keep...

Removing the PAS pump gives you a much better feel and makes the car easier to control/drive IMO. I raced with PAS on and off this year and I would 100% recommend removing it for track work. It is obviously heavier at low speeds and parking etc but is not undriveable.

Hi m8 the 288/288 will idle poorly and may struggle come MOT emission test time due to the overlap the crank will take 6.5 K , but you're past peak HP and TQ then so no real issues I'm currntly building 2 2.7 engines for customers, one low comp for a turbo install and the other 10.53:1 CR for NA wi...

Hi - looking to pick some Brains if possible ? Has anyone built a 2.7 with 288/288 Schrick Cam ? I have read that the 525e Crank doesnt like to rev much past 6200rpm ? I am looking to build a 2.7 with Schrick 288/288 camshaft, enlarged throttle body and different chip. Has anyone done this or anythi...
