Awesome build! I love how the APR mounts look to be inspired by the DTM cars.




Also, love this shot below

Thanks for posting pics, have been trying to look for details on your car ever since the Continental Tires video was released.

Lovely car! Are you running the 275/35/18 RC-1 or is that a new unreleased size?

I didn't watch the whole video but that e36 Had less than half the power of the EAS M4 yet was significantly faster.

The 228 was also impressive with quick lap times and a 200 hp deficit.

I'm just not that impressed with how the new m3/m4 costing so much and then add high cost supporting mods and huge horse power yet a measly 228 is nipping at your heels.

Still, very nice builds though.

Definitely not a race car with those rotors. Looks like a trailer queen.

I don't see how putting a bunch of expensive bolt on's onto an expensive car are impressive. x5mad

I mean, the thing looks awesome but what type of development work did you guys do to make sure this thing runs lap after lap. HOw are you able to run a jb4 on track without any supporting cooling modifications?
