I like how cheap the E36 M3 has become, having said that RIkkys figures scare me  |

ahhh vanos vanos vanos  that's not true whatsoever though about e46 failure vs e36 failure  i have seen plenty of E46 vanos issues first hand; rattling, shearing off the front of the whole engine, emptying the oil in 10 seconds flat from them, unable to idle the car etc... the vanos issue is overrated though and people start replacing them when they get noisy and they rarely actually "fail". you always get noise from the gears over time as they wear and also the seals splitBUT DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE VANOS my M3 is on it's 2rd vanos and i have rebuilt this one twice down to sealing leaks on the solenoids. yes they're not cheapbut you don't buy something like that and expect a ________________________________________ 306 rallye reproduction decals (full sets/individual decals) | 306 b-pillar textured vinyl weatherstrips306 slam panel esso stickers | 306 yellow / orange / pension fund red side door badges gti6 inlet manifold badges | 306 rear boot badges (p2/p3) winner of Extraction of toys from prams with outstanding vigour award 2009 [source: gti6 owners club] |

Much like the Cambelt and crank pulley problems on the Gti-6 theres a lot of misinformation and speculation which is bound to put some people off. |

Not to p*ss on your fire but... e46's rarely make 343bhp.. I rr'd a few (dont get worried when you see 270bhp at 5500 rpm REDLINE.. as DSC needs deactivating properly before you run it)and if you want vanos.. please strip a e90 V8.. f*cking work of art that engine and i have bits of it all over the kitchen  ________________________________________ Team Supercharged Gti-6NV Motorsport Automotive Performance Tuning 0121 448 7515 ECU Remapping/ DPF removal VAG/BMW Diag and Option Coding Peugeot Planet ECU coding/transponder programming etc www.nvmotorsport.com Facebook Page Project S6 |

My old man ran an E46 M3 from new for 5.5 years. Fantastic car but you sure need deep pockets for those things! Until it started breaking, it was the most wonderful companion, the rasp from the straight 6 is awesome and if you're quick enough to keep up with the back end on wet roundabouts, they're a benign and chuckable machine. The old man now has an E92 M3 and it's honestly dull by comparison. Enjoy it!________________________________________ Lotus Elise 111RPeugeot 306 Rallye |

straight line drag.. it can launch harder with less slip and such a flat torque curve...but very similar specs... 220bhp/tonne 0-60 5 ish seconds.. an i think it'll hit the same top speed as i had 150 on gps with ease on mine They were running 14s ¼ miles at pod.. so very similar. My customers have a few tuned ones which have the edge on my ASTOR... but i shift like a granny these days. ________________________________________ Team Supercharged Gti-6NV Motorsport Automotive Performance Tuning 0121 448 7515 ECU Remapping/ DPF removal VAG/BMW Diag and Option Coding Peugeot Planet ECU coding/transponder programming etc www.nvmotorsport.com Facebook Page Project S6 |
