This BMW E46 has spent the past two years being built by VRP Fab in Lublin, Poland for drifting. The car has been completely rebuilt with upgraded suspension, brakes and drift-spec steering. Of course what excites us the most is the Mercedes 3.2 L M104 (M104.99x) inline-six sitting under the hood. The engine produces 468 horsepower and 580 Nm (427 lb-ft) of torque to the rear wheels thanks to the turbocharger producing 0.7 bar (10.1 psi) of boost. Behind the engine sits a five-speed manual transmission taken from a BMW E46 3.0d and connected via a bell housing from a Mercedes 2.7 CDI.<\/p>\n
