We need the attention of BMW E30 M3 purists everywhere. Yes, another fool has desecrated one of these ultra-rare homologation specials. We love every bit of it.

The biggest shortcoming of the E30 M3 was its engine. The chassis, weight, and dynamics were all top-class. So although the S14 four-cylinder had character, it wasn't much of a performer. In the modern era of racing, 200 horsepower isn't going to get you very far. Not to mention, when inline-sixes exist, why throw a four-banger in your race car?

Taking something great and making it greater

had all these questions answered for themselves. So when they decided to build an E30 M3 for the track, the expensive four-cylinder had to go. Nostalgia and brand loyalty is cool, but far from the fastest option.

What is fast and cool is a big turbo 2JZ-GTE inline-six out of an MK IV Toyota Supra. The one found in this E30 M3 makes a healthy 1,300 horsepower. So with all that power is it a drag car? Nope. It's actually going to thrash the Nürburgring Nordschleife. You might be thinking, isn't that too much power for the 'Ring? You'd be right to assume that.

Yet, Buldre Racing doesn't seem to care. They came to the 'Ring to go fast and that's what they'll do. The last time this M3 was on at the Green Hell was 2018. Even with full racing slicks, this purpose-built coupe will light up the rears in any gear. Complete with "Swedish Gold" aka Öhlins dampers all around, the M3 is well set up for grip.

Featuring a dry sump oiling system with E90 as the choice fuel, you know this is a no-expense barred track car. When you're making well over 1,000 horsepower, cutting corners is not an option.

Lighting up the Green Hell

Nürburgring mainstay got a chance to go around the 'Ring twice with the owner. Throughout the laps, you can see the driver needing to feather the throttle, even on the straights. By the time boost starts to build, it's either time to shift or brake. Yet, the Buldre Racing E30 M3 only knows going all-out.

Unfortunately, on the second lap the car would lose a wheel stud and have an issue with the driveshaft. Yet, that didn't stop them from getting sideways at 130+ MPH. What else are you going to do with 1,300 horsepower in a race car? The team also has a 1,030 horsepower 997 GT2 RS built for the same purpose. Notice a theme? So if this E30 M3 offends you, you may reference the prominent sticker on the rear glass: "FLAT OUT AND ZERO FUCKS GIVEN".
