from what i know (which aint much) the engine is actually about 17-18kgs lighter than a normal m20 due to the fact that its mainly alloy

Post Tue Apr 26, 2005 9:45 am

Am i right in say John at ZOOMMOTORSPORT did the conversion.
If so i no what to expect as mine gets done next year, Plus that is a nice install

roll on next year

Post Tue Apr 26, 2005 12:41 pm

Rags i'm sure he has a chip in it as that's how he earns his living. I'm sure that's one rapid E30.

Dee it was done by zoom. I've seen this conversion on a few E30's and i have to admit, it's one of the best out there. I want oonnnnnnneeeeee

Post Tue Apr 26, 2005 2:59 pm

i saw that at stoneleigh it did look great i especially loved the number plate and the camera mounted between the front seats!! do you know if he is doing the gumball this year? how much would it cost to put that engine in an e30?

Brettski... you were at Stoneleigh? Should have come and said hello!

Giles.

Post Tue Apr 26, 2005 3:09 pm

yeh john at zoom did that, pretty much to a testament to johns skills, which he has a lot of. pretty much dream up anything and he could do it for you.

think mines gona get a bit of M power treatment at some point.
