2.7 Build**NEW DYNO ADDED**

[Dan318-is]

Well i havent been in it yet but judging my the speed you past me oz then it must be pretty fast!

[oguz327]

Ant those springs have got to go back on, sooner the better, its like driving with flat tyers but we had to try it and at least i know what i am not missing.

Its a shame as i really like the stance atm and love slammed e30s but the ride is so bad it doesnt warrant putting up with.

Dan, we were only cruising when we passed ya

[d6dph]

Sounded awesome when you went out of lakeside tonight fella. Top work by all involved.

[cliffybabe]

Oguz when u come back formt he blast it sounded wicked and it looks cool awsel, Congrats man

[Theo]

Sweeeeet. C'mon then Oz - what's it top out at!

[Simon13]

it climbs like a good 2.7 does over 100mph where you really really notice it and a 2.5 has had enough

defo a revving HP lump i think. Goes very well indeed. Just need to sort the suspension and breaks now!

[Andy335Touring]

Sounds a very nice build , which cam did you use ?

[oguz327]

Not sure to be honest Andy, was made to Ants spec but he wont tell me what it is

[Andy335Touring]

Well, it works well thats the main thing i guess ?

[ed325i]

which cam did you use ?

A Quote from another topic on here >> Oz is having a cat cam in his 2.7 thats being built

[oguz327]

Yes, Ed it is a cat cams and around 270-280 but the exact spec i am unsure of, it was ordered to spec.

When we were discussing the build i was happy for Ant to order what ever spec cam he though was best for my needs, fast road and track use.

I know it may seem a little odd not knowing the exact spec of the cam but think he got it spot on to what i wanted so i am happy, even if i don't know what it is

[liam012]

how are you enjoying i now?
notice any difference in smoothness over a 1000 miles? i was sure i did..
as for the ice these last 2 mornings... perhaps not the best time for a 2.7... mine tried to kill me this morning

[Simon13]

haha Liam they can be a bit lairy in the ice or rain or even in the dry!

[Davenotouring]

2.7's aside, my 316i was lairy on the way home. Seriously, low speed 3rd gear (i.e. No torque) the back end was stepping out.

Hilarious.

But be careful!

[oguz327]

So far she's been quite well behaved but i do have exellent tyers on there!
I certainly wont be taking too many liberties in the wet or ice, drift king i aint!
She bit me last year when it was 2.5 and still havnt fixed the damage

Its smooth as silk too Liam, love it

ODE is a monster then.

Time to put it to the test me thinks.

ODE vs 3.8 M5 .....not thats not fair, not even the Turbo 325i Ant had could live with it.

Alpina C2 with MBE vs ligtweight ODE?

You are on Sal!

I challenge you sir to a duel, Santa Pod, in the Alpina, not M5!

[M5pilot]

Challenge accepted.

None of this Santapod business for me sir.

Bruntingthorpe!

Some rolling starts will be good.

I now have the BTB2 on the Alpina so it's a little quicker than before.

I have the advantage of car mapped with no AFM but you have less weight. I reckon ODE might just take the ultimate 2.7 title!

You know what, we should do an E30 Bruntingthorpe day if it's financially feasible.

Alpina C2 with MBE vs ligtweight ODE?

Yeh man. lets put that to the test.

"ODE vs TRD"

only joking sal.(before i get about 7 pm"s off you...)

[Simon13]

Lets seriously not get carried away here.

The gug was and is the quickest 2.7 i've been in, i've been in all 3 all cars mentioned. I know theres a bexleys "230bhp monster" but i have never seen it or been in it

Sorry to piss on fires here but well you know

[Nelly]

I think you already did Si lol

Sal

if only sal .

OZE, how long is the Q for a ride in the ODE???

[--alpina--]

tell me, after an engine build, how many miles do we have to do to bed in the pistons and floor it...???



Cheers

Guggy didn't have no where near as much low end torque as Alpina! Karan witnessed this himself.

But Guggy was certainly fast.

It did have the advantage of very low gearing remember....but it was still a flipping monster.

230 Bexley monster felt fast, put down good 1/4 mile time in wet on BK's.

That's it, Alpina gets 15" bbs's with 205/50 for this race!

[oguz327]

Simon & Sal, i couldn't care less whether, it my car is fastest, slowest or most rusty 2.7 ever.
I am happy with it that's all that matters.

Sal, i love track days but i think a race could be a bit dodge not to mention against the rules, but saying that if we by chance end up on the track at the same time i would give it a go.

Santa pod would be as much fun and safer, its just a bit of fun init lol

[Nelly]

Hell, i'd race ya in the Baur Oz - that's if i'm allowed to drive it lol.

[--alpina--]

ill give ya a race in my nissan micra if ya want??



j.

[--alpina--]

ill give ya a race in my nissan micra if ya want??

[oguz327]

lol Neil, step up sir your on! if your allowed

Wilson, a few people have asked lol whats happening with yours, have you still got that lump?

[oguz327]

ill give ya a race in my nissan micra if ya want??

Lets av it, but go easy please

You do realise I am joking dont you?

GuG, Alpina, Yours are all serious 2.7's, all built properly with all the bolt on mods available.

I doubt very much there would be much between any of these cars.

Infact, I personally think yours would have the edge due to the weight loss. Duncan's lightweight 2.5 just showed how much difference weight really makes.

Imagine my m5 stripped out!

[M5pilot]

Alpina C2 with MBE vs ligtweight ODE?

Yeh man. lets put that to the test.

"ODE vs TRD"

only joking sal.(before i get about 7 pm"s off you...)

Haha!

poor little 4 door Alpina. No one likes it. If only you were a 2 door

[oguz327]

Get the M5 stripped out Sal, full xs performance graphics, roll cage, the jobs a good un

[M5pilot]

I was thinking just that.

There is a 3.6 parked outside. Interior out, carpet out, ac off. Can lose 200 kg on these according to a few guys who take them round the ring.

Lots of money to be recovered on M5 interior bits for some nice light seats and lots of stickers + roll cage.

Then we can have some fun......300+ brake and 1400 kg is not bad.

Sal

[Simon13]

from a car thats nearly 1700kgs to start with? Cage weighs alot too
