M3R E36 #shorts

This is Number 6 of 15 M3R's available in Australia. In late 1994, BMW Australia ordered 15 special road-going E36 M3-R models to compete in the Australian Super Production series (GT Production class). Originally built as standard M3 models on the normal German production line, these cars were converted to M3-R specification by Frank Gardiner Racing in Australia and were all completed in March and April of 1995. All 15 coupes are painted Alpine White III (300) with an Anthracite M cloth/Amaretta suede interior, plus the following unique features: -A retuned version of the 2,990-cc S50 B30 powerplant developed in conjunction with BMW M GmbH and Schnitzer Motorsport GmbH featuring different camshafts, revised intake and exhaust ports, a lightened flywheel and a dual-pickup oil sump (as used in the later S50 B32 motor) . With these changes, the engine was re-rated at 324 hp (DIN) at 7,200 rpm and 258 lb/ft of torque at 4,400 rpm. -Stronger drivershaft from the E31 850Ci -Shorter 3.23 final drive -Reinforced AP Racing clutch -Top speed limiter removed -Stiffer BMW Group N springs and shocks -Larger AP Racing front brake rotors with four-piston calipers, stock rear rotors with AP Racing calipers -Adjustable front and rear GT spoilers with additional rear rubber lip extensions -M cross-spoke alloy wheels, sized 7.5x17-inch (front) and 8.5x17-inch (rear) -Fog lights delete -Rear "M3" badge delete -Air conditioning delete -Radio delete -Central locking delete -Check Control system delete -Non-functional rear seat -Individually-numbered silver plaque under the parking brake handle Contact Us: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/southernbm https://www.instagram.com/southernbmclassic_/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SouthernBM.com.au Website: https://www.southernbm.com.au Online Store: https://southernbm.com.au/shop Email: info@southernbm.com.au
