Honda S2000 powerd bmw e30 track car

[s2000powerd30]

So i bought this e30 of my mechanic he previously had an s2000 engine in it, so saves me alot of hassle as all the fabrication work has been done....
Hers how i picked it up, in a sorry state i know but it wont be for long






Here you can see the fabrication work so the engine sits right back an as low as possible for improved handling...

[s2000powerd30]

So i owned this s2000 an decided to to use it as the doner car, there is only 87000 mile on it an has been well enough looked after, i got it for a good enough deal an i have sinced sold the rest of the car...
I will be using the engine, gearbox, prop shaft, digital clocks, an the wiring loom










So we got the car on the lift an the lads started cutting the rear arches out so we can fit wider wheels

Considering the spec and attention to weight, you'd do well to sack of the shite and heavy Alpina reps for something light and strong!

Yes i would buy something lighter, i have to keep the wheels 17 inch as to fit over the brembo brakes
Im also going to paint the roll cage an the wheels this colour



The car is getting painted ford frozen white

There is a 700 bhp s2000 running standard internals on s2k uk....Rotrex uk are happy for these to run at 450 bhp without an issues.....

White on green works ok..

Team Dynamic wheels? Pretty cheap.. Compomotives turn up 2nd hand a fair bit also.

[s2000powerd30]

Would they be 5 or 6 spoke wheels? Cant picture them in my head an how much would a set of 2nd hand 17s cost me?
Here is pic of my 6 spoke compomotives on my evo
