Pics not working  Sounds great though! Would it not have been cheaper to get an E39 M5? They rock side to side as well mate.

Thanks for all the positive comments V8mate said: Awesome! Now bring us some video; with sound! There are two in the first post but here they are again  First run  First drive  Stig said: Dare I ask what this is going to stand you cost wise? Would have been a hell of a lot cheaper just to go and buy an 05+ 4.6l GT Mustang Aprox £11k It may have been cheaper to buy something else but whatever I bought would have had tired suspension/brakes etc & would have been the same as everybody else's I love E46's this is my 3rd one, I had a 56 reg 120d MSport & hated it so did the maths & realised for similar money I could have the car I really wanted ManOpener said: Cracking car. One question- I always though that the M3 rear had a wider track than the 3xx one? Doesn't appear that way from the images... Nope they are the same it's the rear wheel offset that's different, mine has 20mm spacers at the rears to make the wheels fill the arches mig25_foxbat2003 said: That is wicked - I love the standard-ish look. Really really cool project. That badge will confuse some Americans though, as it's technically a 345ci engine...! Ahh your not first to mention this BUT it's a German car fixed in Birmingham so 3 cause its 3 series, 57 cause it's a 5.7l, C cause it's a coupe & I cause it's injected stuff the yanks Somnophore said: What sort of bhp is it putting out? It's not been mapped yet so it's 'only' revving to 6100rpm instead of 7000rpm but when it's sorted it should no it had better make 400+bhp M5cheaper Tom said: Would it not have been to get an E39 M5?

I wasn't even going to put a cam in it but bowed to peer pressure! I wanted a car that was really nice to drive & has that factory feel rather than a monster I'm scared to let the better half drive.

And I thought dropping the VTs engine into my peugeot was a lot of work!
Brilliant project, excellent result from the looks of things!!!

Wicked project m8! So what sort of BHP is this actually producing? I assume its around the 350bhp mark.....whats the next step? supercharging?
