Thanks to Jeroen from Speedhunters for kindly throwing this build my way. Once again, everyone’s favourite car (or should I say, the Internet’s favourite car), the E30 BMW, get’s some major lovin’. This one’s getting it’s new heartbeat from Nissan’s finest, an RB26DETT (with both T’s removed and replaced with one big T). Purists look away.
It’s still in the build, so head to either http://www.lotustalk.com/forums/f152/1986-bmw-326rb-32022/ or
http://www.onyxsyndicate.com/newman/e30gtr/e30gtr_00.html to keep up to date with the progress.
UPDATE: This build is now complete
wow sweet color…..crazy ex routing!
There are so many things I love about this. The engine, the exhaust routing, the overfenders, the cage, the fact that it’s an e30… I mean, I don’t know what I don’t like. I guess 315-series tires would be better in the rear, but that’s hardly a big complaint I could hold against it.
The guys at DBM Engineering in the Netherlands have done the same (and a whole lot more) with this E36 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5qmSmFMgrU
