Making 335ix F30 into a F80 M3 body

minien · 12-11-2014, 07:45 AM

Being actually motivated by all pessimists here to replace the engine. Then I can out run all the negative people who do not like this copy built, even as it is not original MMMMM car. And it is of course not original engine if I do it , it must be tuned. :-)

You're killing me man !
I'd love to have a bottomless wallet also.

Would take back the idea from Hartge H50 V10 E90 and do the same to my F30, also with all the M3 trims.
Couldn't care less about the haters, so should you.

Already did take my F30 Sport, added all the M-Sport outside + M Performance.
Next brakes, Dinan suspension drop, 20" wheels ... DAMN MOD BUG !

Hi
If you had read the entire thread, you would have seen that I have plans to insert engine and gear from a x5m. I'm waiting for a quote on this from my German friends.

It's all good tho. I'd like to see the finished product myself. I say put the X5M engine in it.

To you proud M owners who feel you are being stepped on, I have an M3 e90 which is original and C63 AMG which is original. And if I'm going on a track to run, I take my 1M clone with 550ps. I do this because I like it, not to be a wannabe M3 owner.

To you waiting images, it comes soon:-)

Her is som Pictures of my 1 series

Keep up the great work! Love the idea of building an awd M3 conversion. Awesome imagination bro! Can't wait to see more progress

Super build! This reminds me of a similar build on E46fanatics where a someone in Norway built a E46 M3 sedan using a perfectly fine M3 as a donor and a '99 318 sedan. Everyone thought he was crazy but the fact that the cost of buying, insuring, and fuelling such a performance car is incredibly expensive could justify these types of projects..

Being that I came in owning my first BMW in the E92 platform, I have never ventured into the E46 realm. HOLY SHIT! That build is AMAZING!!! I'm at lost for words...

Mind boogling the extra time and money you have on your hands to re-invent the wheels...

exclusivo · 12-12-2014, 10:37 AM

the electronics on that engine swap is going to be a lot more than you bargained for.

Have you considered an S65? Maybe with a blower? Might be a lot lighter than the Tu.

No , the bmw e and f chassis does not work so good together whit the el. system.

chris82 · 12-12-2014, 04:26 PM

This guy has so much money to do this stuff all the time it seems, I envy that, I'd do the exact same thing if it were me. Build and modify cars that most people think is plain silly. I love this kind of work!

Damn! No words can describe how I feel about that build..

Amazing transformation. BMW should've made an e46 m3 sedan in the first place, with chassis code e44 m3.
