Honest Assembly<\/a> was a team of 20 industry experts and six automotive students who spent two years planning and 11 months building this BMW E30 to raise money for The Morgan Adams Foundation charity<\/a> focused on children’s cancer research. In the engine bay the team swapped a twin-turbo 3.0 L S55B30<\/a> inline-six from a BMW F80 M3<\/a> capable of 550 hp (404 kW) and 560 lb-ft (759 Nm) of torque. They included six F80 coolers, 4 fans, and a CSF F8X charge cooler. Behind the motor is a six-speed manual transmission from the F80 M3 and a machined rear differential for 4 clutches and 3.38 ratio. The E30 sits on custom subframes with extensive chassis reinforcements. The team improved handling using MCS 3-way adjustable coilovers, SLR Speed tubular control arms, Essex Racing AP Racing F80 front brakes, and BMW E46 rear brakes. A set of Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 (225\/40, 245\/35) mount on Forgeline LS3 centerlock wheels<\/a> (18×8, 18×8.5). You can view more photos and full specs on CSF Race’s project page<\/a>.<\/p>\n
