I bought this car in 2007 as a parts car and fixed everything wrong with it and sold off all of the parts I didn't need for it to be a race car. This car is by no means capable of being street legal, but does include a clean title with the sale. This chassis has been fully prepared to dominate in BMWCCA, NASA and SCCA endurance racing and includes an FIA spec roll cage as tarmac rallies were perhaps in its sights as well. The chassis was stripped down to its barest essentials and put on a rotisserie for over a year where it had ALL of its undercoating stripped painfully removed. A 10-point roll cage was added to it, tying in the front and rear shock towers as well as the rear subframe. The main hoop on this roll cage is welded to the chassis in 12 spots. The front and rear subframes have reinforcement plates welded in along with the Rear trailing arm mounts. It is designed to promote driver entry and egress and incorporates 19 gussets to offer superb reinforcement. The chassis has been fitted with a Tilton pedal box and has the driver seat mounts, pedals, shifter location moved rearward for better weight distribution. The chassis itself has also been seam-welded. The front bars of the cage within the drivers area of vision have been painted rally black to reduce the amount of glare. The front and rear subframes, and rear-upper control arms have all been blasted and powdercoated. There are billet aluminum mounts for the engine, transmission, rear subframe and aluminum/spherical bearing rear trailing arms. The front spindles and rear trailing arms have been completely rebuilt and feature all new bushings and bearings and have also been cleaned up beautifully. The lower control arms are the UUC adjustable model, brand new. The front control arms are brand new steel units with delrin offset mounts. The car was just repainted Avus blue and features the Pennon GTR kit as well as a MA Shaw Carbon PTG wing and MA Shaw Carbon Trunk and a VIS carbon fiber hood. All of the sound deadening was removed from the interior and the bottom of the car has been freed of its rubberized undercoating to minimize its weight. The spare tire well was cut out and replaced with steel sheet metal to accommodate a ATL 25 gallon fuel cell (not included). The chassis was modified to accept a side exit exhaust (included, for US S52, weighs 13 pounds including headers- ebay SS). For preparations of potential rallying, it has ½” thin wall steel tubing stitch-welded strategically on the underside of the chassis to accept ⅛” HDPE plastic sheeting to protect the underside from rock-spray. The car has lexan glass that has been cut for the rear ¼ windows as well as the rear window and has had ¼ turn Dzus fasteners welded to the chassis for the ¼ windows to be quickly removed. There is a lightweight battery box provision welded in the center of the chassis where the rear passenger would sit. The car does not have or include a front windshield. It will also need a driveshaft and axles and does not include a clutch/flywheel. The Recaro seat is out of certification and will not be included, nor the steering wheel. A custom shifter was designed and built for this car, it will need a selector rod fabricated for it for completion. The air foil of the wing is currently exposed Carbon on the bottom and the top is in primer. I was in process of leaving the bottom Carbon and painting the top of it when I stopped working on the project. This car is currently on a bilstein sport suspensions as a roller, no proper suspension was purchased yet. The car is also without brakes. The car will come on a set of 15” bmw sport wheels with worn out slicks. It will include the chassis wiring harness, engine wiring harness (I believe I have it) and the new stainless steel hard brake lines that I have fitted with AN fittings throughout the chassis along with tilton pedal box, tilton AN connection brake fluid reservoir and Wilwood brake bias knob for pedals. It has the factory X brace that I refinished and also a turner motorsport front sway bar. I have invested many thousands of dollars into this project as well as countless thousands of hours into it offering nothing but my best effort all along the way. I am sad to see it go but in recent reflection I must concede to the fact that I am trying to race outside of my means and needs to simplify life a little while and move forward with other things. If anyone is looking for any type of E36 race car platform, this chassis is prepared to the utmost level and needs only Wheels, brakes, suspension and other fancy go fast parts that I did not yet afford. The bodywork is 99% fitted but the one rear fender flare extension is not yet perfect and the car may need some general finessing but it in overall incredible shape. It includes clear tail lights and depot headlights from DDM tuning. Included is a custom Carbon fiber floorpan that I have made to level out the floor beneath the driver's feet. Also included are a set of brake inlet ducts that mount in the fog light openings that I designed and made specifically for the E36. It will include the DXF files to the front splitter I have designed which also doubles as an under tray and can be made to be adjustable for and aft. The chassis has been modified to accept stanchions in additional places resulting in very sturdy mounting. The car has an S52 engine that is still on the stand, with balanced crankshaft, rods, and pistons with new bearings on polished surfaced (beautifully in spec) and ARP connecting rod bolts as well as ARP main bearing cap studs. there is a standard issue US spec oil pump and pan that will be included with the engine as well as a cylinder head that has been refreshed with recut valve seats and faces, new valve guide seals and inspected surfaces all along the way and all in spec. It includes an M50 manifold with BimmerWorld adapter kit. It has the accessories, valve cover and a good US 5 speed ZF manual transmission. The rear differential has been machined to accept 4 clutches, which are the only parts needed to finish it and will include several final drive ratios as spares. The differential mounts are also billet aluminum. It includes a lightweight battery mount and provisions to mount your fuel pump/filter on a stamped sheet metal bracket over the rear seat area. The car can be sold without the drivetrain and also can include many spares based off of what you are looking for. I would prefer to keep it all together but I will separate as needed although I will not be parting out the chassis itself or any of its components. I am certain there are a number of performance/OEM parts that I have overlooked that will also be included with this, including spare body panels as well. I am looking to unload all of my E36 parts so I have a collection from the (6) E36 M3's I have owned previously. This car does require a fair amount of work to complete but it will be amongst the very best on the track once completed. This is a great opportunity for a strong DIY'er or someone who has a shop to finish up the build. I anticipate that for as little as $10,000 (depending on your choice of fancy brakes, suspension, etc) you can have this car complete and have yourself a race car that would cost $100k to build for a fraction of the price. Please contact me at ArtisanResearchLab@gmail.com with any questions or inquiries. The car can be shipped at the buyers expense and I will be available for consultation to see it through completion.
