Hi guys.

I've been on this site for a while but havent posted my car here.
I've had it for nearly a year and love it.
It's a standard euro non cat 200bhp model in henna red.



Also here's my Westfield that I built approx 5 years ago.
It's got a Toyota 4AGE engine with 45 delorto's and omex ignition.
It only gets used in the sun.

Every time I see an E30 M3 it makes me want to sell my car and buy one. I think the running costs would cripple me frown Deffo a car I will own at some point.

Looks lovely!!

For someone that didn't work for Toyota R&D what does that mean? size, power, donor car etc?

lovely car but I agree, the gold paint does nopthing for them

maybe if they were painted in Lachs just like the sport evo's if you had to paint them

Both lovely cars, especially the M3 I think that it looks absolutely stunning with those gold wheels on it.

Thanks for all of your comments.
I think my M3 should have had 15" BBS wheels from new. Someone hss fitted 16" on there which were standard on later cars.
I thought about the wheel colour for a while, couldn't decide between negaro silver or gold. I decided on gold as it gives the car a more retro look.
Some people love them and some hate them. I really dont mind either way.

My westfield was built by myself about 5 yers ago and again I wanted something a bit different from the norm,
I've driven a few zetec engined cars and found then to run out of revs quickly. I then went out in RAW engineerings demo with a 160bhp toyota 4age engine fitted. I loved the revs, It revs to about 8500 which is well off the westfield rev counter. It is fitted with twin 45 delorto's and Omex mappable ignition.
