Anyone know who this car belongs too? Good effort!

Yeh saw a that while back, not a bad effort.

The Corsa did well, but go the 325is!!! E30's rock!!

[ope126]

I assume that is an SRi? :confused:
That can't be stock, my old one never sounded or went like that!!!:D

[pred8r]

I'd guess at a bit of a zorst, but then the stockies do sound VERY similar to that.

Depends on the recording mic placement, as theres not much exterior noise either.

Thats awesome
put a smile on my face seeing that.
i should show it to my beema loving nextdoor neighbour

[beep beep sri]

bet the corsa was striped out. it sounded very empty inside the cabin. id say a race seat and cage nothing more

[xplosv57]

I agree it mustve been stripped, can't really see a Corsa going up against a 325is and keeping up with it, unless the BMW driver wasn't pushing hard enough!!

Taken from ecca:


Barina SRi 2002(?):
Engine - internally stock with OEM tuning, extractors, pod filter.
Suspension - shocks, springs, sway bars, lowered, extra negative front camber.
Tyres - Road tyres for the vid (goodyear F1s I think), normally races on P-Zero full slicks.
Brakes - OEM, but with good rotors, pads and fluid.
Other - Pink valve cover http://forums.eurocca.net/images/smilies/biggrin.gif, trick roll cage, no sound deadening etc, no interior except for the dash.
Class - the car is built to improved production rules, but has to run in sports sedans when on slicks http://www.eurocca.net/forums/images/smilies/rotflmao.gif.

BMW 325is 1988:
Engine - stock.
Suspension - stock springs, Konis in the back, stock shocks up front, good bushes throughout, about -1 1/4 camber all round.
Tyres - Firenza road tyres.
Brakes - Wilwood 300mm rotors and 4 pot callipers, good pads and rotors.
Other - It's a road car, so everything else is as the factory intended.

LOL awesome, thats all i needed to know!! Put a set of extractors, exhaust, and filter in the 325is and the barina would have no chance!! That's without taking the interior out hehehe!!

[MatsHolden]

Can't really compare the two though as being on level ground, 1.8L and 92kw vs 2.5 125kw.

[PaulyJ]

[R3N]
