JamieP Posted April 18, 2008 Author Share Posted April 18, 2008 LHD dont bother me, stuart (best mate) is kicking up a fuss now saying he wants this as his toy, ive suggested to him we both buy and share it but he aint keen:D lets see what the bloke comes back with.

DannyB Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Share the costs, makes sense! Nah i didnt say LHD was a problem mate, i was just saying that i heard that LHD is better for track days, i heard that on a Subaru Forum tho! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted April 18, 2008 Author Share Posted April 18, 2008 Im off to see the Supercharged M3 now with stuart, ill report back soon. Needs some work, it was very fast but the guy had just bolted a supercharger kit on and did nothing about mapping, sounded a little rough as well.

DannyB Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 DIY job?! Yes i bet it was fast, a bit of work youll have to do for yourself then i guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted April 18, 2008 Author Share Posted April 18, 2008 Yea he fitted himself, id be to worried about the damage that could have already been done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyB Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 to be honesy mate i wouldnt want to know either, unless he had a recipt for it being done Pro. Does this open up doors to you know then? would you consider a M3 then get it S/C yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted April 18, 2008 Author Share Posted April 18, 2008 I spoke to Rabid GB today and for a fully fitted and mapped supercharger/intercooler kit to a M3 is £7.5k so to much for what is meant to be a cheap track car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 dc2 integra with supercharger or turbo? or is FWD not an option? (sorry, didn't read the whole thread) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blimey that is a bit steep, way out of budget for a track car like you say Perhaps this is why the guy tried it himself!! keep us all updated anyway!

JamieP Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 Im giving up on the m3 idea, ive been to see 3 M3 5 speeds now and they have all been dogs, Nigel (RXV8) and homers threads regarding building V8 mussel jap cars is really getting me going now, plus if i get something jap i can still go to all the jap shows;) so im now thinking of an RX7 as they are pretty light and putting a big V8 in it. So, if you hear of a RX7 going cheap with a blown lump let me know, cant be to hard to find;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
