Don't get me wrong, I love Turner (own a BMW tuned by them for track duty) but what I think this video really shows is how much faster a professional driver is with an old beater with a few budget mods than an inexperienced driver(s) with much faster car. As the the track-day saying goes, the best mod is the nut behind the wheel!

chipattack912 He's definitely a professional. He drives on Turner's race team. Says right in the description: "Professional driver Michael Marsal was at the wheel, and we used Monticello Motor Club as our race track "

M3ntal he’s not a pro, he’s an amateur driver who raced against pro’s in professional series such as Grand Am and IMSA. He was decent for an AM driver, but not fast enough where he could make a living racing.

loved it so much I went out and bought a 95 325i. Now I'm on the track this year

brandon fair just bought me self a 325i 2003 and in 1 week we are almost ready for the track. Could use a lot more parts but we want to feel how the car is pretty much stock

Just bought a 95 325is with 266k from president of BMW club outside of DC. Drives like new. About to gut interior and add cage. This video was a great inspiration.

now i remember why i love bmw's ,,, the guy who waved him passed in the porsche must have felt so beaten :P

I just got my E36 and will be going with these changes as current parts wear out. Thanks for the info.

excellent video! thanks for posting

I was going to order some of these parts from you guys. But I ordered a NEW spoiler and got sent one that should be in a bargain bin at a wrecking yard. I'm still going to build the car. I'll just have to shop elsewhere. Keep the upgrade advice coming though. Your competition will appreciate it.

Great video. Love how you showed the time difference in time with each mod. Would like to see what time it does with no seats, carpets or sound proofing.

really cool video keep it up

Great video, E36 ( especialy M3 Model) is a trackday weapon.

Excellent

why did I watch this now I want one lol

Depending on the type of tracking one is doing, signaling for passing may be required. To signal with your hand, you have to have the window open. Also, in case of an accident in which the door is jammed and you need to get out of the car (fire), there's always the window.

I can't believe chip intake exhaust took off 5-7 seconds a lap. Like literally, I can not believe it

I did a track day and asked the same thing. I think it is partially for safety so if you crash, safety crews can easily get you out of the car. Also, the track day i did required you to give the person passing you a "point by" before they were permitted to pass you(so both people knew the pass was going to occur)

Hey guys, man this is some awesome work. A few questions for you, 1) you did not mention, where subframe reinforcements welded onto the car when doing the suspension modifications, or was this the stock chassis? 2) Did your brake upgrades include the M3 brake booster?

Great video! Did you guys install a antirollbar? I thought I saw one laying in between all the parts.

Many tracks require windows down driving in the event of an accident. It's easier to extract someone from the car in an emergency. That's fairly common.

The real reason most clubs require you run with windows open is safety. If you're disabled as the result of a crash, corner workers will have trouble extracting you. In the series I race in, you're allowed to run windows if they can be quickly opened or removed from outside the car.

YES!!! I love my e36's!!!

You have too at most tracks/trackdays. It's a safety thing. Even in Nascar they don't have windows.

Just bought a manual E82 135i a month ago but I still want a E36 track car 😭 was going to get one for $2500, it was manual too but it got sold

its for safe measure. If you happen to crash or go off track it keeps the window glass in your door instead of the track in case of a shatter.

Because many sanctioning bodies require that you do. 1 So you can point other drivers by. 2. So it's easy to get drivers out

Im doing a e30 soon

save money by getting a different exhaust, that thing is a grand

It gets hot as shit on the track, and tiring as well. But running the aircon will affect the performance of the car, so it's better to have the windows down.

$215 spent per second reduced - pretty good!

what about the rest of the windows?

Turner I read at the end how $ you guys spend on this 1992 E36. Thanks anyway.

whats the music in the beginning?

What's the size of those slicks?

Because he is wearing a helmet, and the car still has factory windows in it. One fast turn and his helmet hits the window, it will shatter. Also in case he flips the car so he has exits. Usually the windows will bust out, but in the event that they do not and the car catches fire, he is screwed.

I wonder what the difference would be if you spent $7500 on an e36 M3 and if the times would be comparable. More HP, bigger brakes, wider tires, and a tighter tuned suspension.

You also have to be able to give point-bys

Stupid question but I thought the most obvious and cheapest mod would have been weight reduction as its just a fun trackday car

Could you please tell what is the cost of the parts?:)

Most events require windows down for safety reason ;)

I'm sure even after the mods it was still cheaper than the Porsche and Lotus he ended up passing (;

why not try a E36 M3 ??? not too much expensive than 325is... ????

...I have an 02 e46 that i’d like to track #silbergrau

I bet the upgrades are more than the actually car price of $2300.00. Very nice video, the driver info was great too. Turner, can you tell how much it will for those upgrades. I own a 1996 E36 328is, I have done some in my own, K&N cold air, Tein springs and a OEM M3 catback exhaust. Did improved for sure. Regards to all.

You never said how much all the mods cost. So to improve the car 6-7 seconds per lap cost how much?

That thing is mean :O

as it's true the initial value of the car was low, but how much is the total amount of cash spent on parts to upgrade it? Does it really turn out to be cheaper then spending more for a better car?

@flavourboss

$5k fir the lot + a little over $5k for the base car. I'd spend another k on the the cooling system just in case aswell. But for just over 10 call it 15 for arguments sake, you have a great track car.

What ever happened to this car?

lol, an "aggressive track day car" apparently sits on conti DWS.

thats hilarious, you overtook an elise and a porsche

What the heck, yeah as someone said below me, re-upload? What gives?

And finally another 4-5000$ to turbo it, for another 24seconds off. Though it will be not even near "budget" anymore

Yup, from what i've read the "stock" engine (basically all inline6 engines) can handle about an additional 60-70HP (with the appropriate ECU, and larger injectors of course). It's risky though, success depends mostly on engine condition.. above that it's large bucks and aftermarket all the way

325is? there is a 318is and a 320is but no such thing as a 325is, because the 320is is the italian M3 version, its just a 325i with its stock stuff. a 318is has a 4 cillinder 16 valve 140hp engine, and a normal 318 haves 8 valves, the S means an valve upgrade, and the e36 325i already haves 24 valves with his 6 cillinders. the e30 325i haves 12 valves, and 22 hp less than the e36 and that makes the difference.

***** I have the trm chip and it did definitely make a difference, you have to look beyond dyno increases with something like an intake and a chip and instead look at the responsiveness increase. Ya you might only gain 8-10whp but the power that the car already makes seems to come on quicker
