"Super Budget" Red BMW 325 Coupe "Wall Rider Drift Build" - silverzx - 28-07-2015
Saw this puppy on the DriftWorks forum on Friday and somehow managed to beat every other bargain hunting drift kiddy too it!

Should owe me about £500 in mod's all of which can be sold/transfered/whatever if and when I write it off, even less if I'm patient and buy via auctions and/or second hand.
The other option is to turbo it to 400bhp, the manifold/turbo wouldn't be particularly expensive but the stand alone management and mapping would, so probably best just brushing that under the carpet and leave the turbo business to the Datsun! After all this is supposed to be cheap and cheerful!
Finally, some pictures after I clay barred, polished, hoovered and cleaned it (WANRING, DON'T GET JELOUS):

All of the cars... looks clean. I still think these look good but only on decent wheels!

Mmm, maybe I should of stuck a filter on to enhance the read, they looks bad ass! Too many doors though..

Must admit I do like this shape BM though!

They ain't pink, they just 100% natural no filter.
Doesn't do the colour justice, looks mint in person.
RE: "Super Budget" Red BMW 325 Coupe "Wall Rider Drift Build" - Midnightclub - 28-07-2015
If you were to go turbo route with this, I think piggy back over standalone would be the way to go in terms of cost effectiveness.
Looks like quite a bargain though mate

I won't, I can afford too but I have the S14 for fawking about with boost. Even though a 6 pot turbo would be insane.
Ideally I'd like to RB25/1JZ/2JZ the S14 for that reason, 6 cylinder turbo, it's just costly. An RB25 conversion would cost around 2-2.5k and that would be for a stock motor running 280 bhp.
I bet you could turbo the BMW for £1700 and it run better power / be a hell of a lot more unique. The fact the block is iron stands in it's favour and from what I've read 400bhp at the fly isn't particularly unrealistic.
Anyway... No turbo.
RE: "Super Budget" Red BMW 325 Coupe "Wall Rider Drift Build" - powerandtorque - 28-07-2015
Looks very clean and tidy that for £300! Sounds like a bargain
Almost seems a shame to butcher it to go drifting as per the fate of so many cheap RWD cars these days

I was tempted to just stick it on eBay for £800, take £700 and make a quick easy buck.
But..... At £300 it seems rude not to stick with it.
RE: "Super Budget" Red BMW 325 Coupe "Wall Rider Drift Build" - Midnightclub - 28-07-2015
Dude those M50's can run properly metal power if you de-comp them a bit, like you say much cheaper than whacking an RB in the 200'
Just gunna leave this here... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5Q1xMTb5VU

Not being funny but that build probably cost £7000, not £1700! :
RE: "Super Budget" Red BMW 325 Coupe "Wall Rider Drift Build" - Midnightclub - 28-07-2015
Probably haha, but you could probably run 450-500 at the crank on stock internals with some decomp.. plenty really!
RE: "Super Budget" Red BMW 325 Coupe "Wall Rider Drift Build" - silverzx - 28-07-2015
Could be worth a lol... Wonder how much mangement would cost.

RE: "Super Budget" Red BMW 325 Coupe "Wall Rider Drift Build" - Midnightclub - 28-07-2015
Just bear in mind most kits on eBay are for LHD cars, so you'd probably need a different manifold. It'd be cheaper to just get bits here and there and make your own kit.
I don't know how much the standard ECU can be played with, but there's a fair few tuners about.

Fair point.
Mmm, anyway, enough of dreaming about turbos I think before things get out of hand...

You've already got a drifter though, why not just make this a handling/track day toy?

Because I don't like track toys. I like side ways.

I actually want this and would bite your hand off for it if I had space.

Fit the engine from this into the S14, boost it and have something different.. Then sell me the rest so I can put a stupid 6 pot diesel in it
RE: "Super Budget" Red BMW 325 Coupe "Wall Rider Drift Build" - THE_Liam - 28-07-2015
Seems a shame to drift that to be honest, tidy, 2 door, 6-pot, manual. Looking at the price of an E30 with that spec, this could be worth a fair bit in 5 years. Epic bargain though!

Whipped the ecu out to check what it was and if it was standard.
Have a chip is being ordered / coming to put limiter up to 7,000 (from around 6,000) and should push it to 212 bhp / 262 nm.
All for the grand total of £60!
