Hi
This is my first post,
I used to own a E30 318i LUX and I had a compact for about a year...
Anyway was in edgware coming up to APEX corner and saw 2 old school BMW's (E30's obviously) next to me one black with alpina badge and oval magnex exhaust i think D reg and another Gunmetal grey A plate (private plate i think) both 2-door coupe...
Saw the forum URL on the back of the grey one and a bird driving it...
Anyway once the lights turned green they shot off together i was stuck behind a car so i was left behind....
caught up eventually then at next round about the grey car cut me up!
just wondering what was the specs of both cars the black one was quick!

Well you were partly right but it is but it is two toned with another colour as well but please don't say anymore about the colour as a number of people on here are waiting to see it at the next ace cafe meet and we want to suprise them. P.S. I didn't cut you up - salsport
And we were not racing as the road was too busy but we were in a hurry as usual lol!

Salsport - 325I Sport original Tech 2 with m3 cecoto interior but has been modified to a 2.7 + re map and custom exhaust system, at the moment.
Zaust - Tech1 bottom end still 2.5, Corry ported and gas flowed race head with bigger exhaust valves and reground wild cam to match the compression, double valve springs and matching followers. gas flowed inlet manifold and matching TB. custom hand made exhaust manifold and system. fuel pressure raised and custom remap(Fries uk jason).
omex adjustable rev limiter. and a few little tricks here and there.
