It should actually be the perfect one Restomod then this vehicle is the ultimate candidate for the award. The BMW 2002 by Magnus from Sweden. Specifically, a copy from 1970 and the perfect starting point for a crazy one Father-son project. The car is from the ground up restauriert and each small screw was turned at least three times before it was installed. In 2019 Magnus participated in a car show (Bimmers Of Sweden) and even received an honorary award for the restoration. After But it was only really rebuilt in 2002. In the front there were the original ones 2002 Turbo fender flares and also the OEM front apron with a cooler tow strap was assembled. In addition, the body is in the elegant BMW 354 titanium silver painted and there was also a set of multiple parts Alpina rims.
specially made Alpina-Alus
They are from CR Custom Wheels specially made and measure 17 × 8,5 inches on the front axle and even 17 × 9,5 inches on the rear. The wheelset is equipped with Nankang AR1 semi-slicks. And then there is the highlight under the bonnet. There is an ultra-clean planted one there S54B32 in-line six-cylinder from the BMW E46 M3.
However, it only fitted after extensive changes to the Bulkhead inside and for sufficient stiffening there was also a highly polished one Domstrebe. And the engine has also been modified as befits its status. The factory 343 PS and 365 NM torque were apparently not enough for Magnus. He built forged ones Wiseco flask, there were forged ones Pauter connecting rods, MaxxECU management (Chip tuning) and one fine balanced crankshaft.
Exhaust system from the BMW 1M Coupe
With a modified OEM intake manifold, bespoke Velocity stacks Nuke Performance fuel pump, 790 cc injectors, One DO88 aluminum racing cooler and many other small changes, the engine went a long way up in terms of performance. However, we are satisfied with the exact numbers not in front! We have some information about this Exhaust System. That comes from the BMW 1M (E87) and could after "Lift" from the trunk floor (Incidentally, the aluminum fuel tank is located in the trunk) are installed. And she even has a special one Opening in front of the rear silencer to give the in-line six-cylinder a more than befitting soundscape. The system fits optically perfectly to the rear of the classic and the "M02 Competition"Lettering.
ZF BMW 535d gearbox in the BMW 2002
Incidentally, the classic is switched by means of ZF BMW 535d gearbox (The underbody and transmission tunnel have been extensively modified), there is a Tenaci flywheel and Clutch and on the rear axle is a E36 M3 differential installed. And of course, a completely new chassis had to be produced to ensure that the performance gets onto the road appropriately. The choice fell on one Öhlins R&T coilover kit with Millway MotorsportCathedral camps, there were modified BMW 2002tii Wishbone and Sellholm tuning stabilizers and also a completely new one Bremsanlage. And one from Tenaci with 6-piston brake calipers and perforated and slotted 320 mm brake discs on the front axle as well Tenaci 280 mm discs at the back with a hydraulic handbrake. And inside? Magnus relies on a mix of old and new.
an E46 M3 OBP pedal system is also installed
Magnus modified that dashboard, the Door panels and headliner (the latter is black), he built Recaro BMW Performance seats with BMW M seat belts and also modern Auto meter ads, a modified one E46 M3 OBP pedal system (Racing - pedals) as well as a Momo sports steering wheel are built in. With small details like custom-made Deep pile overmats, a leather-covered Center console and a perfectly fitted Tablet screen the cabin is impressively rounded off.
