Absolutely stunning! Head turner for sure. One thing about numbers... The 900ish units were for North America. 740 of those were for the US. So yeah, rather rare especially if you consider those lost to accidents or being stolen. Again... Stunning example... Especially with the 513 wheels (personally didn't like those a few years back when they came out but in that refinished color and in this build they DO look nice)

@maxa7665 Жыл бұрын
I think the M axles, diff and steering are something to keep in mind too. Those are expensive parts that come stock on the 1M and will add loads of extra cost if you want it to be exactly like the 1M. Those parts are shared with e9x M3 tho so you could find a cheap crashed donor for a more affordable price
@qx4n9e1xp Жыл бұрын
I would do a Ford 8.8 kit from SLG. For 6 grand, you get a 1pc driveshaft, 8.8 diff, G-force axles, and everything is straight bolt-on, and will be nearly indestructible. This is coming from someone that did Mfactory diff plus SLG axles, and semi-regretted it. For the steering, the M3/1M steering rack is straight bolt-on (but keep your non-M tie rods) so I just bought a salvage one from a rear-ended m3 for $350.

@@qx4n9e1xp Ford 8.8 is definitely a good option. Wavetrack ATB Helical upgrade for the oem M3/1M diff could be great too but it was quite expensive If I remember correctly

It’s a good looking car but did you replace the differential with a 1m or m3 lsd? Did you do 1m control arms and other suspension pieces that are on the 1m? Just curious how close it actually is to a 1m and not a 135i with a 1m body kit. Cheers
@ThicWhips Жыл бұрын
Great question: the differential is neither 1m or m3. It’s a modified 335 3.46 big ring gear differential(previous owner built this as a drag car before it’s rebirth w me) The control arms are off of the e9x m3 (front and rear) the suspension is a not-so-great st coilover setup, I have ohlins coming instead. Future plans: full e9x m3 subframe, diff, hubs, conversion. 👍

Hey bud, two questions. Do you think I can do the rear 1M conversation myself to the point of the fiberglassing & cutting/welding the inner fender metal, and then ship it to a body shop to finish & paint? I'm mechanically inclined, but I'm not a body guy very much. I don't want to do a bad job, nor give hackjob work to a body guy who will have to do double work to fix it. Second question: Are CES n54 850hp bottom mount kits permanently discontinued? Or will they still take them on as special orders? I've been eyeballing this kit for a while now, but their site always says "sold out"
