  • A customer of Al's had some very specific ideas about what he wanted his BMW to do, with the right budget and the right people to do the job - just about anything is possible!

    I like how Bill thinks! This is a very smooth, slick build. I remember watching these race in the Australian Touring Car Championships back in the 80's under the JPS Racing banner and they were monsters in the Group C era. Really nice to see one in such immaculate condition - well done!

      As a teenager growing up in the 80's I too fell love with the Mighty Bayerischen Meister Wagen back then first with the JPS 635 of Jim Richards then the ultimate 1980's BMW came out to take on the world... the E30 M3 and I was amazed at the performance of a na 4 banger going up against the V8 Holden the Ford Sierra and the Nissan Skylines. They might not have won all race's but they still held their own... I ended buying 7 years ago a '93 E34 M5 Touring while I was living in Germany and found that the engineering and build quality and how well it drove was phenomenally brilliant even for car that was 18 years old at the time and had over 400,000 klm on the clock. It was THE best stock standard car I have ever bought. And when it was sold two years later prior to moving back home it remained stock because I felt I had no need to improve what was already a pearler of a car from the factory.

    2JZ is the obvious choice for you guys in Australia, since you have easier access to it. If the same car was doing an engine swap in Europe, then it probably would have been the N54 engine from BMW.

    A lot of BMW enthusiasts will, no doubt, go nuts about this, especially with how valuable 6s have become in a lot of markets. But this makes a lot of sense in Australia, and for Bill who clearly loves his autobahn stormer having had it for 30 years. This was clearly a very high spec 6 having a lot of toys that were very rarely, if ever, seen in a lot of markets until the end of the line Highline models like the power adjusted sports seats. I hope the family have another happy 30 years with this re-engineered wunder wagon...

The Beemer was no slouch, but the Siemens electrics did not like Malaysia's weather very much. BMW cars were assembled in Sarawak at one time.

    • @OllamhDrab
      @OllamhDrab Před 5 lety +1

      Sad to say, in some ways, I can already empathize. A flappy-paddle that works snappily (Or, even one of those Tiptronic levers or by whatever name, so something is there for your shifter hand) would be a nice compromise for a daily. ) As real sport-based cars go, I think I'm a holdout for the oldfashioned stick and three pedals whatever happens.
