I dig the E36, but I love easy boost from factory turbo'd cars too much to buy one. I hear there's an N54 swapped E36 running around though.

vanish1 · 11-16-2014, 10:06 PM

those te37s look good, so you can order volks in 5x120? The rays website isnt as informative as the work website.

TMW · 11-16-2014, 10:16 PM

yeah a lot of vendors sell bmw fitment volks. example

welcome to 6 years ago.

nobody really cares about what the n54 isnt, too busy easy boosting.

drift freaq · 11-17-2014, 11:31 PM

I want Volks on my BMW. lol

simmode1 · 11-18-2014, 03:12 PM

So, speaking of Volks on a BMW...

I used to think the E90/E92 coupes were the most beautiful front ends I'd ever seen on a BMW, but Gawddayum... The 4 series does not seem to be a joke.

simmode1 · 11-18-2014, 05:07 PM

Hey so... the 228i is less than 3300lbs when equipped with a manual trans... Anyone know if the N20/N26 has forged internal? Might be a great deal at $33k brand new... I searched but didn't find anything on the engine aside from it's twin scroll turbo...

that pic is some te37 bmw pr0n right there.

The 4 series does downright look MEAN; the rear end is equally as menacing, low and wide with the dual exhaust, looks great in motion.

^^^Wow. That's a lot of info. But I browsed through the Engine Components section & didn't see the word 'forged' once. Hmmm...

vanish1 · 11-18-2014, 05:40 PM

simmode1 · 11-18-2014, 05:54 PM

Ahhh... forged crank. Cool. I wonder how much the rods & pistons can handle? Its the same engine in the Z4 28i. I wonder what those guys have managed to produce so far. Just had an idea: E36 N20 swap... We all know it'll happen. I just wonder when...

pistons and software are the major difference between models sharing the n20

yeah there will be one or two guys out there that do it for e-peen but if things stay the course as they have been then it will prob not be a legitimate engine swap option.

simmode1 · 11-19-2014, 11:12 AM

Dammit... The E92 coupes looked so good to me before. Now they just look like doughy porkers in comparison to the more muscular 4 series. Crap.

Oh and that M3 Rally cross car face planting was a riot.

The only BMW video I've ever cared about.

vanish1 · 11-19-2014, 09:34 PM

^that means ur gonna get a 1 series next huh

on the mpzracevideo channel he has a few bmw euro hillclimb vids which are fun to watch.

this race vid is fun too:

simmode1 · 11-28-2014, 10:44 AM

Oh... So BMW actually is taking the 2 series further than the M235i and are dropping a legit M2? With a rumored 400hp & sub 3300lbs... How nice of them.

*kingkilburn* · 11-28-2014, 03:31 PM

That lower facia is rather inelegant for a BMW. . . I wonder what they need all that airflow for.

Inelegant for a BMW?! Did you not see that M4 posted above? Lol... They look pretty damn similar to me. I'd assume the top openings provide airflow to the radiator, the bottom flows to the intercooler & the sides flow to the brakes... Fascia looks like a evolution of the 1M's to me. But it's just a render anyway, so whatever. I like it though.

*kingkilburn* · 11-28-2014, 03:58 PM

Those side vents just look a little boy racer to me. Not something I'd expect from a factory BMW, even on an M car.

simmode1 · 11-28-2014, 04:56 PM

Yet, BMW's been putting side vents on M3's since the E46...
