Thinking of putting an S2000 lump in my e30 track car.
That has been done
It is a popular choice for this and kit cars as it is a small but powerful engine
Not very tuneable and peaky power deliver though

Apologies if repost.
At the risk of starting another argument if that was a focus it'd be trashed as boy racer, but if its a BMW its ok ?

Audi 2.7TT S4 motor/drivetrain/interior into a widebody VW Corrado...
I don't like the colour or styling details but I'd love to have a go in it, from memory the Corrado is quite small is the drivetrain of the S4 the same wheelbase?

I know this car from Driftworks, it's a S2000 engine and box shoehorned into a AE86, common conversion and makes for a redicuously quick car, the guy's been building it for a few years now, bit by bit but it's a full on properly done job, bareshell rebuild with fully intergrated cage and all the trimmings.
Cheers fella. Just beat me to it grumpysmile

Looks bloody fantastic - You have the thread to post?
Sorry it took so long Otter

If the Focus' aero parts were actually useful, and it was running a 600-odd BHP engine with drivetrain modifications to match, then it wouldn't be trashed as a boy racer at all. Aside from the red paint on the wheels, there's very little on the BMW that isn't a performance-derived modification.

You know what, I kind of have to agree. Reason for posting it was that I just couldn't ignore the fantastic craftmanship gone into this. Looking so well built inside and out that I believe it could be something easily rolled off the production line as it is.


Thanks for the link Mr Manta - Going to be some serious reading this evening thumbup.

Was built by JCG, but couldn't find this car on their website. Here's the link from where I got those pics from which shows a little info about it smile.
