BMW E36 V8

Track day, first half lap is warm up, then into it, AP Racing brakes to slow down at the corners. Awesome fun!

Very nice work! What parts are on the car from the lexus besides the engine? The gearbox sounds like it has the same ratios as the automatic 4 speed but you seem to change them manually.I happen to have these two cars and thinking of a similar build ( E36 318i sedan , Lexus LS400). Thanks in advance !

@vvorttexx Thanks. Gearbox was a w55 Manual from a toyota Celica, blew that up, have since changed to a strengthened R154 Manual from a toyota Supra turbo. fantastic car. I have just supercharged it, it goes like a rocket!

Is that a Alpina B8 4.6?

[jasens27]

@PanchoxXx391 No, its a Lexus 1uzfe 4.0 V8 in an e36 coupe

Performance E36ers can start with a Signature Motoring performance intake kit. It can add up to 11HP for only about $150 and installs in 30-45 minutes - really a must for every E36 owner. It also makes the car HOWL at high end but sounds normal at everyday driving. See my videos!

-Adds 9-11 HP

-Never replace filter again (K&N)

-GREAT SOUND

@foroyskirbilforarir well I have worked with both engines, I would take the 1UZFE any day (so would anyone else with a clue). I still like the M60, but is potential is limited if you're working on a budget.

@JZZ31 .......what an idiot u are

[JZZ31]

@foroyskirbilforarir Better than the M60 BMW V8.

very-very good!the e36 with v8 engine it's a dream:D...and o good driver!:)

I am looking at doing a similar conversion into an e36 compact. Is there anywhere I can read up more on your project?

[TheBMWDude21]

I’m happy with my 94 325i, but the only performance mods are sport suspension and the Signature Motoring performance intake for about $150. Signature Motoring kit adds around 9HP on the dyno, great sound, and the best performance upgrade for the money. See my channel videos!

-Adds 9-11 HP

-Never replace filter again (uses K&N filter)

-GREAT SOUND

-Installs in maybe 30-45 min. K&N filter lasts a lifetime.

I'm thinking maybe performance exhaust, but eh.

@foroyskirbilforarir Why not a bigger BMW engine?
