E30 M3 - Supercharged S50B32 [RNGTOY]

[1000hp]

Oh lord

[Blue Thunder]

Here is the power curve for a similar motor that my tuner
friend tuned:



Nice curve for a track car

[Montreal e36]

Holy hell how did I not know this existed in 07 Awesome thread mate!

[GADINA]

S85? Oh good lord

[Blue Thunder]

Yup, stroked to 5.4L with a M-DCT gearbox

[Blue Thunder]

This has been "progressing" slowly....
Other things in life seem to get in the way of spending time/money on this

Got a friend of mine who has already tore down his Europameister E30 M3 to help me yesterday, he´s very normal:



Drysump tank out:


Surface rust under battery:


Rear side windows out and started to remove the heater:




Worse has been seen on E30's, hopefully salvageable:


Small rust dot on the A-pillar:


Seems ok here:


Some cancer:


Garage filling up with parts
Need to get some off to storage:


Took the drysump tank apart while taking it out, cleaned it and reassembled:












Plan now is to strip the car as soon as possible and then it´s getting blasted by "Dustless Blasting" (Home - Dustless Blasting). Then I´ll get a better idea how much metal work has to bee done.

Awesome thread, never seen it before. Already been a while since it was last updated and seems to have died suddenly.

How's the car doing?

[Blue Thunder]

Project still alive and progressing slowly

Pics of the DCT box - on it´s way from Denmark:













Will be interesting making it fit... the E30 tunnel is not quite big enough

- - - Updated - - -

Also, finally the S50 engine is sold & paid for.

Gave up on the original buyer and sold it locally - here is the happy new owner picking it up:



Will go into a mint 1990 E30 316.

So now the S85 is on the engine stand with the parts list.....

[stealthbeam]

ohh my, I like where this is going. Keep up the good work!!

[Blue Thunder]

Finally something happening..... DCT box transported from Denmark to Iceland:











And seems to fit nicely in the tunnel - maybe I will not need to butcher it:





And finally, a slight change in plans regarding the engine. Sourced a complete stock engine, will run that to start with.
Rod bearings will be changed and then later I will go for the sleeved block stroker build:



Will arrive in Iceland next week.


PS. This thing had kept me busy, but now it´s complete the M3 gets some attention again

This is just insane.
Keep up the good work Þórður

[Blue Thunder]

Quite the size difference between the stock S85 pan and the dry sump pan!

[Gizmo330iT]

This build just got a whole lot more crazy! I like it!

[Blue Thunder]

Some progress with dry sump install.







Needed to thread one hole and put a bolt in it to block it.






A good friend of mine that runs a CNC business is happy with the workmanship of the pan!


AC and steering pump have to go:


Also have to remove the chain that used to drive the stock oil pump as well as the chain guide/tensioner:


Pumps out of the way. There you can see the old output of the oil pump and the oil input into the block:


Chain off, had to loosen up the vanos pump to do so.


Stuff off:


Pumps and oil filter housing off:




Here you can see better the original oil output and input into block:


Inserting the ARP bolts:




Blocking plate and new input for oil into block:


Output blocked:


Both installed:


Pan in place:




On the left is the new pulley for the dry sump pump. On the right is the stock crank pulley, need to machine the AC part off:


Here you can see how it fits together:

[Blue Thunder]

Now the M5 has gone into winter storage - there is now space in the garage for some RNGTOY work

With help from a good friend, the S85 went in this weekend.
Only minor mechanical persuasion was needed

























Will probably get it 2-3 cm lower and 4-5 cm further back.

But so far so good.

[TH3 Shifty]

that thing is F'ing massive in there!!

[LSxDreamer]

Oh lawdy... This is a thing of beauty

[Blue Thunder]

Some new parts for the build.



Couldn´t resist some used Evolve intakes that were for sale recently.
Also, some proper engine mounts from Vibra tech. Also a mono wiper kit from AKG + some reinforcements.

Now waiting for the mounting bracket for the DCT, once that is get I can get the engine/box into final position.

[Blue Thunder]

Project superslow continues, DCT bracket finally here - Schmiedmann taking it very slow thru the holidays:



Next is to bolt the DCT box to the engine and see how it all fits, headers too

[Blue Thunder]

Some heavy CAD design going on (Binky style) to make brackets, none of the OEM stuff can be used because of lack of space!

Cardboard turning into metal:

[Compactive]

All these welds and clean af brushed metal gives me a big smile inside

[Blue Thunder]

All these welds and clean af brushed metal gives me a big smile inside

Strangely satisfying

[Blue Thunder]

Decided to splurge on some Supersprint hardware:





These are originally made for E46 M3, 2 x 2.5" - will incorporate into a custom exhaust. Old exhaust sold and will go into the car the S50 engine went into

The preferred setup is:

headers -> x pipe -> cutout valves -> mid box -> rear box

But due to space restraints the cutout valves might have to go between the mid and rear boxes. I want to have both the possibility to have crazy loud V10 and then a track day compliant setup also

But I have plenty time to figure that out, delivery is in week 11
