    trackculture.com M5 V10 powered E46 M3

    My M3 is undergoing a rather special transplant at the moment, that I thought may interest you guys.
    We've developed a real passion for 'normal' track driving over the past couple of years, and the idea behind trackculture.com is the same community spirit for like minded people with different types of cars as Driftworks, but for track driving

    This is my E46 M3


    and this is what we're doing:

    Nice ECU, Pectel (cossy now i guess) SQ6M if I'm not mistaken.

    Needs turbos to make full use of such an awesome ECU.

    PMSL Sorry dude. I'm just a bit of an idiot, what can I say . I should have a nice house, and some money in the bank, but dumb cars are just more fun

    Yep SQ6M12 with a Cosworth motorsport loom and Cosworth Pi Dash. While we've been doing the conversion I kind of eyed up placement of turbo's for if I ever get bored of 600bhp, and let's just say that won't be happening without some serious engineering. There is so little room left, and with the intention being to daily drive and track this car, I think heat may become a real issue with turbo's. We'll see though eh. Never say never

    Click on the first blog post. It's all about Craig and Dynotorque. The mans a genius! You know we bought the unit next door to him?

    We have an M3 and M5 on the drive. I can imagine the sharpness of the M3 with the power of the M5. Those engines just keep on pulling.

    Could be a pretty perfect car really.

    Nice conversion, saw you all at the Ring at the start of June, you where about two tables away at Sabines steakhouse

    Your S15 seats made a few laps of the Ring even if your S15 didn't

    That is an epic conversion, there can't be many better V10...if you get bored of the power slot in the Carrera GT V10

    Skim reading by an idiot and not checking links FTL

    Yup, Craig's a fcuking legend - I've been visiting him quite a lot of late He's done a load of small fab jobs for me. If I ever needed anything like this done, he'd be the first, and probably only person my list. It's not often that the facets of being fcuking amazing at your trade, and a bloody nice bloke intertwine
    Just don't stop him finishing the ever delayed V8TTFD

    Awesome stuff man, I'll be keeping a close eye on this
