Complete Resto/mod Mechanically Including M-20 With New Paint & Interior on 2040-cars
Tallahassee, Florida, United States
|
1971 BMW 2002 with M20 6 cylinder engine and Getrag 260 5-speed transmission & ecu. The motor had a little over 100,000 miles at the time of the swap with 3,306.6 miles driven since the build. All driveline, suspension, brakes, etc were either replaced or upgraded. Specifics include: 1. Fresh head and timing belt. 2. New IE clutch kit and Ireland Engineering (IR) E30 short shift kit and IE windage tray. 3. Guibo and custom driveshaft. 4. Front and Rear Main seals. 5. E28 Engine Mount and custom transmission mount. 6. All gaskets and typical comprehensive tune-up items. 7. Stitch welded engine bay and added body to frame reinforcement to compensate for the increased torque. 8. 3.91 LSD rear differential from a 320 mated to all new CV joints and half-shafts using IE’s adaptor kit. 9. Custom fabricated new front and rear strut bars (the rear with a battery tray) 10. Custom headers leading into a complete custom 2.5” stainless steel exhaust. 11. H&R springs. 12. 15”x6” Panasport Minilites. 13. Bilstein sport shocks. 14. Hankook tires. 15. Euro flush turn signals. 16. New strut top bearings and IE Negative Camber Plates. 17. IE front vented big brake kit with Volvo calipers, tii master cylinder and rear drum cylinders and stainless steel lines. 18. All bushings to polyurethane from IE 19. IE front and rear sway bars. 20. All new steering arms and bushings. 21. Since the Getrag 260 doesn’t have a mechanical speedo output, a set of Haneline hot rod gauges are used getting RPM information from the ecu and speed/Odo information via GPS. The gauges include fuel, water temp, oil pressure, and amp gauges that fit the look of the car well. 22. An IE fiberglass replica using hood pins for attachment replaces the stock hood. 23. All of the door and side window gaskets have been replaced with new OEM gaskets that fit and perform well. 24. The chrome trim and window squeegees on both the inside and outside of both doors have been replaced. 25. New black carpet kit from Only02 along with a black stock rear bench seat. 26. New vintage Recaro recliners with Schroth 4-point harnesses. 27. New door cards are from Aardvarc and covered them with black material very similar to the Recaro fabric. 28. I also covered the stereo console and rear deck cover in the same fabric. I opted to paint the roof of the car black instead of installing a new headliner. 29. New Suede Sparco 350mm steering wheel. 30. The dash was replaced with an used OEM dash with only one 1/4" crack where raised guage area drops down to passanger level. 31. Also Included are the BMW owner’s handbook, the 2002 Workshop Manual and a Budge car cover. Several items can either go with the car or I’ll sell separately including a new front air dam from IE, four Hankook slicks and four Fitipaldi alloy wheels. The exterior restoration was done by a paint and body man experienced with collector car restorations and has less than 400 miles since completion. The car runs, sounds and looks awesome getting thumbs up every time I drive it. It’s guaranteed to put a smile on your face. I’ve had it stored under a car cover in an air conditioned/humidity controlled garage since I had it shipped in from California where it was built by Groma Race Fabrications. It needs nothing mechanically and has absolutely no rust anywhere. This is my fifth 2002 putting together all the features I’ve ever dreamed of with the first four. I only wish I could enjoy it but health reasons necessitate the sale. |

BMW invests in carbon fiber for use beyond i and M models
Tue, 13 May 2014The immense amount of resources BMW has poured into its i brand program hasn't stopped, and recent developments indicate it's likely to pay off for BMW and BMW buyers outside the i brand. The i8 has already sold out its first year run, the i3 racked up 10,000 orders before it even went on sale and is already the subject of public discussion about being stretched into an i5, and a new investment in carbon fiber production has the automaker talking about CFRP use in non-i and non-M models.
BMW and SGL Group got together to form SGL Automotive Carbon Fibers (ACF), and the joint venture produces all of the CFRP for the i3 and i8 on two production lines at its plant in Moses Lake, Washington. After already investing $100 million to increase capacity, BMW has announced that another $200 million will add four more production lines, tripling production from 3,000 tons per year to 9,000 tons. When the expansion is complete in 2015, BMW says the Moses Lake facility will be the world's largest carbon fiber plant.
That's a lot of weave and the long view is that it will find its way into core models, with BMW exec Dr. Klaus Draeger saying, "As part of an intelligent mix of materials, we will apply carbon also beyond our BMW i and BMW M models in the future," and be able to do so "at competitive costs and in large quantities."
BMW M235i Racing restores our faith in 'M'
Wed, 20 Nov 2013Based on the upcoming BMW 2 Series and aimed at amateur and semi-professional racers, the 2014 BMW M235i Racing is a stripped-down, race-spec coupe ready to take on the Nürburgring in the VLN Endurance Championship race series against cars from Audi, Porsche and Toyota.
Obvious in the image above (click to enlarge), BMW has given the M235i Racing the wide-body treatment with a track that has been stretched by 3.5 inches. Under the hood, the 3.0-liter turbocharged inline six-cylinder receives a power boost from a stock 322 horsepower up slightly to 333 hp, while other modifications include a full FIA roll cage, a racing fuel tank and a limited slip rear differential.
The M235i Racing replaces the M3 GT4 as BMW's factory racer, and it will be priced at 59,500 euros (close to $80,000), which is about as affordable as a factory-prepped racecar can get. The full press release is posted below, but we can't wait to see this car in action next year.
BMW ponders increase in i3 production capacity on early demand
Wed, 16 Oct 2013The 2014 BMW i3 is not slated to hit US showrooms until the second quarter of next year, but the response BMW has received for the all-electric hatchback has been positive enough that the automaker is already considering boosting production capacity. Bloomberg Businessweek reports that more than 8,000 customers have reserved an i3 so far, which is high, especially considering that BMW only planned to sell 10,000 i3s total in 2014.
Talking to BMW CFO Friedrich Eichiner, the report says that if the demand holds for the i3, BMW would increase capacity accordingly. The i3 goes on sale next month in Germany before a global roll out in the US, China and Japan, and with a starting price of $41,350, it is priced slightly higher than current small plug-in vehicles offered in the US like the Chevy Volt, Ford Focus Electric and Toyota Prius Plug-in, though features more use of advanced, lightweight materials.
