Good work Mert.... Regardless of how this turns out, much respect for doing what most would have never touched. You keep setting the bar higher and higher. Good luck.

this is the mod I've been waiting for. I've been planning S85 swap sedans, S62 swap sedans, and autocad designing a CF monocoque e46, but this is impressive best of luck to you in your part time AWD M3 conversion. should be one of the sickest pioneering innovations. don't give up!
I put your project on par with impressive's S54 xi sedan- if it works...

Congrats on the little one

Just saw this thread car looks ridiculous, kudos on taking this route and I hope it exceeds your expectations.

I would just like to first say sorry for giving you crap sometimes in the past on the forums. I appreciate what your doing and if everything comes together the way you hope, you will have one mean M. Good luck Mert I truly hope that everything turns out good for you. We had a n/a M turned into an xi from one of our local New York sponsors and from what I understand the customer was not happy with the end result. But by the looks of things, you are doing everything possible to make this car reliable. You seemed to have changed your attitude lately and it takes a big man to change his ways. Best of luck to you and this really awesome project.

*EDIT* Congrats on the new baby! It's an eye opener when you now have something that you have to put before yourself/makes you grow up faster and appreciate the little things in life.

is that the max width and max side wall you can fit up front? or do you have to do some testing with that yet?

245s up front have similar circumference as that of 315s which I ll run at the rear axles.

I also did not want to have lots of traction for the front differential, more rubber more load on the front differential.

I have Limited Slip Diff on the front axle as well. Has been tough but did a LSD on the front as well.

If 245/315 combination wont yield enough traction, enough means 62-125 mph in 2.2 seconds, wider rubber for the fronts will be tested.

sweet sounds like we will see some 275's on the front soon!
