I am building another E46 M3 race car. It’s not finished yet but can’t wait to put it on the scale. I removed a lot of metal inside the cabin (reinforcement behind the A-B-C pillars, inside the doors, inside the rear quarter panels, flat trunk & battery floor, removed rear bulkhead, ...). I also removed all the nd stitch weld all the chassis. The cage ties into the rear subframe and front strut tower.
I have 320 hours in it so far and will have 400 once finished. I still need to rebuild the PF Z45/Z29 BBK, do valve adjustement, rod bearings, VANOS bulletproof, ...

Been a big year, starting with a full engine rebuild through last summer/fall.
Details include full overbore/new pistons, raised compression, 272/280 cams, BESIAN rebuild, and all new hardware/bearings.
Thing sealed up at 3% leak on first fire up.
Over the winter too I started the process of acquiring a few spicy parts:
Testing front caliper clearance;
Car as of yesterday:
Also just placed an order for full SS V1, oversized S1+2, and sport muffler.
Excited to get Hassan to tune this car. With airbox/ exhaust spec, and engine mods, can't wait to see what kind of power this will put down.
As long as I can piss all over my friend's E92 ;}

It's a work in progress but I was able to make it to the last autoX of the season last year for a bit of a shakedown run (no track events left at that point). I've done everything myself up to this point but I'm subing out the cage work to the pros, which is where it is right now 😁

Delayed Track Season - Show us your builds!
Since track season has been delayed by a month or two at this point, most of us have some extra time to prep our cars some more, so i thought why not share some pictures of our projects? There are several builds i know of in the SE region already.
My M3 has been neglected a fair bit as of late, since picking up an S2000 for the track. The M3 is currently up in Virginia with a fellow member getting some VANOS work done.
Also managed to pick up a really cool Gooseneck 44'. Front is living quarters, back is garage. Was a great deal, even though i'm having to fix a few things, such as water damage in the back that was not addressed. Still, hopefully i can get it perfect for those longer trips up to VIR and beyond
