Default E30 M3 information

can someone please point me in the direction of a forum or information about E30 M3's? I have tried google searchs but it didnt come up with much, and i would imagine they would have a dedicated forum or something...

Many thanks,

Matt.

Basically, what can go wrong, how people consider they drive (i cant find an auto acar review...) mods to make more power (without spending silly money) etc etc etc!

A mate of mine has a M3 Cecotto and its been just about trouble free.

Handling is awesome, lack on power a bit but sound fantastic.

i second that for a good site
as already said they handle well but underpowered by todays standards and are expensive to get big power gains. timeless classic looks wise though

I've got pretty well all the reviews of them from when they came out and were new. Inevitably they were often compared to the Sapphire Cosworth and Mercedes 190 2.3/2.5-16
Here's the one from Fast Lane mag -> Click

Double click on the pages to enlarge

Here's the Autocar review -> Click

I've got loads more reviews, comparisons, detailed reviews on the Evos, Evo Sports etc..... if you want to read more

Let me know if it's an Evo or Sports Evo review you're after or compared to a Merc 190 or whatever........

E30 M3 Sport Evo compared to E36 M3 Clicky Link

Loads more articles, buying guides, comparisons.......
If you're after a particular article let me know, I will have it very likely.

A friend has one - handles nicely, bit different to the Sapphire...
