Does it look anythink like this:





I think you'll find they were twin 45's IIRC. What do you want to know about it?

[old_skool]

Whoa...


Nice find Kam. Nice O2 as well. What's the story with that then.

Obviously an '02 with twin dellorto's but what about that intake system?

[maxfield]

Damn!

Is that in a 2002?

I would like to know boost running on it and is there any internal modifications?

Sure is buddy, take a look at the front grilles!

Sweet at was looking at the struts

[old_skool]

Hold on....

Not an '02.... too much beer and I got all excited

It's not an '02, although the grill view from the bonnet outwards looks like it, the slam panel and strut tops are different. The fusebox is also a dead giveaway. Also the brake servo location is up the chuff too.

Must be an E21

Sorry to disappoint dudes, she was running in this:



I owned her quite a few years back. I bought her from a guy in Sevenoaks in Kent. He and his dad were quite minted and into racing, and he got this engine from somewhere and dumped it into the E21. I bought it from him a couple of years after this, and it needed a lot of work to the engine, i.e. tidying up pipework, needed a better intercooler etc. Don't know what boost and internal mods were made, I had her for about a year before I got my 323, but she was farily quick.

All I know is I did a bit of work to her, sold her to a guy up the street from me, who in turn sold it to some guy in Southall, West London some months later who wanted the engione for a 2002 he had. And that was it. Apparently Krakatoa did some bespoke turboing back in the 80's, but apart from this I've never come across them.

She was a fun motor to have, but my 323 is better!

[shahpor]

That is an interesting colour for an E21 Kam.

I don't suppose you would care to share some details of your 323 with perhaps a pic or two?

I am a huge fan of E21's and I miss my 323i terribly

[kam]

Get last months copy of BMWcar. I read a lovely write up on it!

Kam she's a stunner and my hats off to you!

[kam]

Thanks for the kind words Tristan. She's still got some way to go, but like most of us time and money are the things that slow us down.

[e30world]

[kam]

e30world dude, you talkin to me? if so, lets see some pics of your car then?

[e30world]

English isn't a strong point either!

[shahpor]

Thanks for the link Kam.

Very nice looking car you got there. Just about my dream 323i as well!

I do have last month's BMW car magazine. Didn't realise it was that one.

You still thinking of selling? I am not sure I could do it....

[e30world]

mk2 golf car is f000000t

Thanks for the link Kam.

I was thinking of selling last year when they did the photoshoot and article, but circumstances have changed so am keeping it as long as I can. I'm hoping to sort some more power out and get her running the way I want, and then hope to move on and get the bodywork sorted out properly. Just takes time and money and lots of patience!
