    Proven E46 M3 Track Car, 61k miles with all the best mods

    Spec:
    2002 61k miles, manual, 5 previous owners.

    Bought with 54k miles.

    I have owned the car for over two + years, my aim was to build a car quicker than my previous CSL round a track.

    I have acheived this over these two + years, started with a nice low millage manual example.
    I drove to Scotland and back as it had to be right. 5 hours each way.

    Car has been meticulously maintained, serviced every 2 trackdays, had new plugs, alternator, coilpacks, battery, steering arms,
    Mishimoto rad and electric fan, OEM wishbones, every bush has been replaced with powerflex yellow along with the dreaded subframe with redish plates and resin injected in by Bartletts. At the same time they changed the brake fluid and rear brake lines.

    To make the car a proven weapon on track I have added these upgrades, it was all about corner speed and getting on the power early.
    Intrax 1k2 coilovers
    AP Calipers front and rear with brand new RS29 front pads (1 TD old) and rear pads (2 TD old).
    Brand New performance friction front discs.
    Supersprint Cats
    Supersprint lightweight race back box
    Cobra Bucket seats with harnesses & Sliders
    Automac door cards
    Solid steering coupler
    Bimmerworld solid control mounts
    New BMW OEM wishbones, both sides
    New steering arms and tierod ends
    Aircon/stereo/rear seats removed
    H&R anti roll bars front and rear
    Sparco quick release steering wheel and boss
    Carbon Fibre Front splitter and rear diffuser
    OEM CSL Bootlid
    Rear LED lights
    Xenon’s
    Braided clutch hose
    Rear control arms
    New brake lines
    Reddish plates and resin injected to subframe by Bartletts
    Powerflex yellow bushes
    New Mishimoto rad and electric fan, this car will not overheat.
    CAE shifter
    4.1 diff
    Evo pulleys
    Geoff Steel airbox
    Genuine OEM CSL Snorkel with working flap
    CSL map and software
    Stud conversion kit fitted
    Oil changed every 2 track days
    Running front and rear shock mount kits
    Rear Control Arm Upper/Inner OEM Bushes
    Comes with 2 sets of Team Dynamics rims in silver all 9J et 26 running uniroyal rainsport for the road and slicks on track, currently 1 track day old.
    Comes with AIM data logger with predictive lap times RRP £290.
    Enigne is strong.

    The car also comes with
    Centre console.
    Sound deadening still in place
    Carpet in the front
    Carpet in rear
    Roof lining and airbags in place.
    All boot coverings
    OEM Back box, parcel shelf, OEM airbox etc

    Weighing in a 1355kg last time with nearly half a tank.
    Since then had new Team Dynamics rims, Carbon airbox fitted and
    Supersprint lightweight race back box, so with 1/4 maybe around 1335kg, easy.

    Car is very clean inside and out. Body work bar a few places with some surface/rust bubbles on
    front wings and rear as you would expect with age.
    I have not painted these as id rather you see it as it is.

    I have video’s of my progress and a build thread.

    Price £21,500. You could not build this car for that in 2nd hand parts.

    This car needs nothing. Great for euro trips, driving to work and out performing other M3’s.

    Anyone that has been on track with me will know this car is setup superbly at no expense spaired.

    I managed a 2.07 at Snetterton a couple of weeks ago.
