is the e36 too fat to strip as a track ride? i saw one for 1500 and i want to get it to just strip and turn into a track car, so i'd probably get some new tires, brakes, and coilovers. the guy said it needs new brakes anyway.

thoughts?

Wouldn't think so

Absolute fuckloads of them used for anything around here; trackcars, drifter cars, amateur rallycars, stock car racing
>>
>>13967704
nah people track e36 all the time

>>13967710
this

>>13967714
how does it compare to the s13?
>>
>>13967869
e36 is a better chassis for grip
>>
>>13967939
better than a 328i?
>>
>>13967989
is the m3*
>>
>>13967704
keep these cars stock the ///M3 has enough power as it is
>>
>>13968011
M3s seem to go for a fucking lot though
>>
>>13968076
because they are a lot of fucking car. more than what a young adult can handle. my best advice is to get a 318i treat her well and when your in your 30's to consider moving on to an ///M car. these are not for beginners
>>
>>13968115
is it slower or something? i thought they all had the same inline six motor.

>>13967989
in the US the 328i is better value for money. You can get decent power out of one for cheap and the US M3 is gimpy as fuck.
>>
>>13968178
In a track car, that's not very good.

Then again, it depends on your ambition and money you're willing to spend etc.
>>
>>13968115
lmao stop telling people what to do because your ass is jealous

If you want an m3 and can afford it, fucking go for it
life's too short to fuck around being scared you "can't handle" something
>>
>>13968190
That's standard out of the box mang
>>
>>13968178
If he tracks it, he'll have to strip it.

Surely he could take almost 400 out between the seats and most everything else.
>>
>>13968216
OP here. should i try going on a cut myself? i'm like 230lbs and 6ft5 so maybe i could go ottermode and that would help with my corner speed. i'm trying to have a gross weight of around 2500lbs.
>>
>>13968279
I'd first off start by removing any unnecessary organs and swapping out your liver for a lighter-weight aluminum model.

If that doesn't work we could try stripping everything off the frame and doing an acid dip on your skeleton to shave off a little extra, but that'll cost ya.
