How does the e46 compare to the clio on track?
@Just_A_330ci2 ай бұрын
Totally different experience from the ‘club sport’ spec clio to the full on e46. Rear wheel drive is so much more engaging and rewarding but a much bigger challenge. Clio feels nippier due to the shorter wheel base but the e46 is much more planted and the grip is next level. Compared to the laps I was doing in the clio vs the current e46 laps there’s about 10 seconds a lap in it around Oulton Park but my driving has improved some what too. If I had to pick, I’d always have the e46. But have another clio for the weekends again.

I have always had BMW E36 but in the process of dropping an M54B30 in place of my M54B22 in my track car (also meaning I need to keep the Getrag 250 for now!). The oil pump situation scares me a bit. I’m thinking loctite it and leave it. Regardless of what people do, even upgrade to VACmotorsport kit etc it seems to fail with one failure mode or the other. Madness.

Valuable info here, never realized how low oil pressure gets during hard braking or cornering in this car
@Just_A_330ci11 ай бұрын
Even with a baffle it does drop here and there. Improving the baffle design would be a benefit. At least the ‘lower’ oil pressure is when the engine isn’t under load.

Do you have a super damper on the car? I heard that sorta solves the whole harmonics thing above 5000rpm, a bit pricey though.

Hi Tom! I have been following your build since forever. Congrats on everything you've done to your car. I've learnt a lot. How are you feeling about the Schrick cams? I've been thinking about them for a while now but never made the decision. Are they worth it? Thanks!
@Just_A_330ci Жыл бұрын
The cams make a big different to the engine, previously it was out of revs at 5,500 but now revs nicely to 6,800. If you've seen the build threads online there a plenty of dyno graphs on there for comparisons.

Initially reading it off the Canbus on the standard ECU. Now I log all the data through a Canbus logger through the ECU Master Black. Same principle just different ECU.
@garethrichardson4037 Жыл бұрын
Thanks for the reply. Sorry I'm an amatuer at these kind of things but in my e46 m3 I'm seeing the standard oil temp gauge rise to 3/4s of the way round on track, is this normal as I back off and cool down once it reaches those temps and do you know how accurate the standard gauge is to the electronic readings you're getting as I've heard it reads high.
@daniurcu99792 жыл бұрын
You sure it only has 264hp? A 2.8 with schrick cams can make 260-270 hp, i would expect the 3L to make closer to 300 with schrick cams, considering it has double vanos and bigger displacement

Oil pump holding up okay? I’m stuck as to what to do with mine after seeing your experience. Part of me thinks to just grin and bear it and get a harmonic damper.
