Zoners track day cars

[agent006]

Not just a track toy either. It's my only car now so doing 250-400 miles a week in it.

I bet thats not nice! i drove mine around for a few hours last week and it was awfull! A gaz coilover kit with rock hard springs is not good for your back!!

I like your steering column mod, i was wondering how easy it would be to do?? Is it just spacers?

[miniblob]

Not strictly a track car (yet) - i still use it daily, when it's not broken!!! Just having another 2.7 rebuild - but a proper one this time!!!



clicky for more pics and a couple of vids

Fairly easy. The factory bolts have snap-off heads, so the hardest bit is getting them out. Weld on a nut or cut a notch for screwdriver. Space out with washers if you've got nothing else, then refit with new bolts.

Alec, I see you must have found a new home for those dustbin lids you had installed on your front bumper!

now that looks mean!

Great thread! I actually came by this forum near the start of the year asking for help about getting a trackcar - E30 vs E36. Ended up with an E36 328 Sport in the end. Here's the spec:

Fully stripped with sunroof welded in
Custom made rollcage by SHP Motorsport
Corbeau Sprint seats
Ricco Racing (FIA approved) 4 point harnesses
Dave F induction kit
Alpina527 big bore throttle body and modified inlet manifold

GAZ GHA suspension
Nitrac 12 and 8 groove discs (on second set after cracking the first set at RAF Marham)
Performance Friction 97 compound pads

Hankook RS2 track tyres

Sorry I don't have any up to date photos. Indeed, the car is currently with SHP Motorsport having the cage, seats, floor plates, firewall and harnesses fitted.

Yes Marc. I'm in Stevenage. I guess you go to Adil's?

[Lloydie38]

Here is my slag

Now that looks mean in the matt black What's the spec etc?

[karaokebykris]

Originally a 320i SE auto in calypso red. Came to me already fitted with a 325i sport engine and manual box bot with a 4.1 open diff so first gear was useless!

Away went the 14" bbs wheels (once I had "used" the tread up). Interior stripped out and a pair of mamba bucket seat fitted on home made brakets, pair of harnesses and a rear cage with removable diagonal. Scorpion stainless exhaust fitted along with a wild chip. Lowering springs went on as well as a set of MIM 1900 lookalikes actually made by RH shod with YOKO tyres. Off came the useless 4.1 open diff to be replaced with a 3,64 LSD. Bonnet replaced with a less dented spare which was the wrong color so painted it black. rest of paint was peeling it's laquer in places so out came the rattle cans!

Since these pics the bootlid has been replaced with a spare with an se spoiler and the front vqlance replaces as it was rusty. Also front splitter has been replaced with a genuine IS lip. bonnet fitted with bonnet pins and rear of bonnet raised to aid cooling in "high speed slow momentum" manouvures shall we say!

Had a few more decals on since as well, not touched it for 3 months or so as I have moved in with my girlfriend and it is still sat at my house with a few issues to resolve for the mot

Soon it will be back...........

Quick update on mine.

[bramley]

Here's my car, at Cadwell last Monday.

Spec is:

1987 325i
Stripped interior
Bucket seats and harnesses
Chip, K&N filter and Ansa exhaust
Grooved front disks with mintex pads, braided brake lines and Dot 5.1 fluid
Koni adjustable dampers with Jamex springs
Whiteline Motorsport front and rear ARBs
Poly bushes
Toyo R888s





In an ideal world it would have the sunroof removed, some strut braces, some neg camber on the front and a cage, but that's all money I need for other things

[Lloydie38]

You look like you're having fun fella That's what it's all about - grin factor of the E30

[Nelly]

- got my SD cage coming very soon, pics will follow.

Also fitted a couple of old sckool bucket seats on standard E30 subframes but have now got the bug to purchase a couple of Cobras for a good price off of a fellow Zoner. Things are on the up and i'm starting to feel the bug for it again - it's almost a sin to see the Touring sat on the drive doing nothing atm.

Neil.

I had some awful photos previously posted so thought I would post a recent one (or two). From Cadwell last Friday
