Gintani Stage 3 Build for Paul Walker's AE Performance E92 M3 track car (w/ Video)

Raz@Gintani · 12-19-2011, 08:10 PM

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

As many of you know Gintani supercharged Paul Walker's AE performance time attack/track car. After 2 great successful years with them tracking, pushing the car to its limit and breaking records, they have now came the conclusion that it's time for more power.

We were contacted by the AE performance team and have been discussing a stage 3 build for their M3 for a few months now. Paul walker has now given us the go ahead. We have begun taking his M3 apart and we will be documenting pictures of the build as we go along. Stay tuned as we will be posting the removal, engine tear down, engine build, install and the completed project.

Sorry, my wife dislikes the fast and furious series of movies.....so every time I watch it or make a reference to the movie, she rolls her eyes at me.

Back on topic, I can't wait to see this build from start to finish!!!

seems like someone got a little butthurt with the reference...

Darth One · 12-20-2011, 03:05 PM

good luck! did he call you and say "you owe me a 10-second car".

I would ask how much a build like this costs, but I know the answer is, "more than you can afford, pal"

Raz@Gintani · 12-20-2011, 03:41 PM

Haha thank you all for the comments, and sorry about the caps in the earlier post/the misunderstanding of the comment itself, I don't know where my head was when I replied. We always recite the lines from the first F&F, I don't know how that one slipped my mind. Thanks for adding another one to the book

. I will post some more pictures of the engine bay really soon.

Engine is out

Cylinder heads off

Camshafts and Intake/exhaust Vanos

Bank 1

Bank 2

Considering the fact that this car has been through 2 full years of professional racing, has been tested and abused by several professional race car drivers, we are very pleased with the condition of the engine components. As you can see the pistons show no signs of detonation. We will continue tearing apart the motor and have more detailed pictures tomorrow.

Is that a Home Depot lumber kart?

lol, yes very similar. Our metal supplier brought it with a big shipment we had one time and said he would be back for it. They never picked it up and we started using it to move heavy loads around. It actually comes in very handy
