Some more pics of the E30 Cossie - new pics :P

[Paulsimon8]

Today, the love returned for the car. Since I finished building it, I've hated it, hated the way it drove, the car and everything about it

But after a hard and fast drive over the moors, and a couple of pictures, with lots of tyre lines everywhere on the roads I took, the love has come home for the car

Heres a couple of pics, I have hi-res versions if anyone wants them too




















ahhhhhhhhh

[stevenannahouse]

sweet,what sort of power u running and has the engine been reliable 4 u...Looks ace,,,sleeper style

[Dan318-is]

fucking gorgeous!

[Paulsimon8]

running about 300-320bhp at the moment, Never had any problems with the engine apart from this oil leak from the front crank seal.

And the engine, when it was in my sapph, has done over 10 hours of hard track action, and well over 40 laps of the Nurburgring

That in itself, is fantatsic for a 116k engine. Also, a fantastic testament to the man who wrote the software in my ecu - Stu at Motorsport Developments in Blackpool - He is a god

sweet.

Nice pics!!! Sweet car!!!

What rear spoiler is that? A Hartge?

And are those 17x8" BBS RK's? From an E36?

[Paulsimon8]

the spoiler is a genuine E30 M3 item

the bbs wheels are not genuine bmw ones, but are bbs RK 03 17x8.5

That is some tool uv got there mate
I had a look on your website n that was some F@#kin about putn the cosworth in ther mate. BIG respect to you my man!

Does it drive how u would expect? How u expected before u started the conversion?

[m3ben05]

If that spoiler is genuine it must have been customised by a body shop to fit?

Nice car tho mate - bet it goes like stink

What lip is that on the front?

[e36boy]

E30 cossie, im well impressed, looks good!

[fuzzy]

theyre definately a love/hate beast ,when imhating mine (usually after a big cash outlay repair) i take it for a thrashing and it puts the smile back on my face are you planning to turn the boost back up to pre e30 levels?

[Paulsimon8]

M3 spoiler modified by myself (the studs ground off and then secured to the boot lid via long studs, 3 per side, and sikaflex to seal it)

the boost will be raised to 24psi, and then If I go a new engine, a posibility of 28psi and low comp, about 400bhp - more than enough

[cliffybabe]
