Looks good Nick, which LSD are you using, Russ Cockburn grafted a 3 Series one into a '02 casing for me.
Cheers

Re: BMW 2002ti
surprising how much of the "underneathy-bits" like the basic geometry, rear beam, etc. didn't change much from '02's to e21 to e30.. no wonder the e36 was (for better or worse) such a fundamental change
car looks crackin'

Re: BMW 2002ti
I have just got confirmation from the organisers that I have an entry. We are in good company; Jean Ragnotti in a Renault 8 Gordini, Rauno Aaltonen in a Mini Cooper S, Jurgen Barth in a 924 Turbo, and another 327 others. We are 1 of 11 1602/2002s, 81 starters from Bad Homburg
Re: BMW 2002ti
Great news Nick. Hope to see a write up and pictures of your escapades.
The force is strong in this one ......

Frosty this morning Nick.
Car look nice. Already getting some shake down miles I see. What's your initial impressions?
Regards
Mike

Re: BMW 2002ti
Lack of rear traction compared with a 911, even with 20 gallons on board.

Re: BMW 2002ti
Sideways action then.
I've got some old pig iron weights from a 911 you could graft onto the inside of the rear quarters
