E30 m3s are graet cars. They handle beautifully and are actually quite light once you have stripped the leather interiors and air etc out of them. 1000 kg is not a problem.

The S14 engine is a gem for an NA engine. The heads flow very well.

200 bhp in na form wasn'nt enough for us so we turbo charged one!

We were invited along to a recent Performance BMW thrash at brunters, where it posted joint fastest 0-60 of the day and went onto do 154mph with a badly slipping clutch. Would have pulled 160 if the nearly new clutch didn't give up the ghost.

One last thing we found out at brunters is that they have a pretty strong shell!

See pictures bellow... 80-100mph + 2.5 barrell rolls =
