Has anyone turned a E90 M3 into a track car here? (i.e. half cage, upgraded brakes etc)
Would be intersted to hear about their modifications and experience.
Thanks

I read of a guy in one of the BMW magazines a few months back who converted his E92 into a trackday car. He focused on stripping as much weight, I think he got it down to 1350kgs or around that, and had a remap/new exhaust that boosted power up to 450bhp. All this teamed with decent brakes, sticky rubber and coilovers, it did look a bit of a weapon..

It was either Total BMW or Performance BMW, one of the ones they were stocking on WHSmith's at the time - sorry I can't remember exactly which one... paperbag
