In a nutshell, the said vehicles are equipped with a number of performance modifications that makes the 2014 BMW M3 and M4 more powerful and faster.

We live in a rather fast-paced world these days, a world wherein one could find information about anything a few clicks away. In a way, we can think of the people of the world being drawn somewhat closer to each other by way of media and news through the internet. By being shown how people […]
Last entry, I talked about the M3 feeling a bit lacking in the power department. The S50B30US was never a monster, with a rated output of 240 hp and 225 lb-ft. It’s not bad, but not great, especially by modern standards. This build wasn’t meant to create huge amounts of power, but instead to create […]
It has been a while since we last saw my E36 M3 project car. With every project, there are surprises that come along. It’s inevitable. But sometimes these issues can be a lot more serious than originally expected. But after the basic maintenance items, we turned our attention to getting the car fit for use […]
Quite frankly, I’d like to say “I’ll take on of each, please,” but that would be a lame cop-out. The debate between the M3 and the 2.3-16v is basically the story of how the 1980’s era Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft (DTM for us normal folk) turned into the legendary series it has become.

Once thing that tends to be forgotten is basic maintenance. The importance of proper maintenance CANNOT be overstated. So before we even toy around with the M3, the […]
The US-spec E36 M3 is probably the least admired of the M cars. Some say that it’s not a real M car, primarily due to its engine. The S50B30US is basically a mildly tuned M50 motor out of a 325i. M purists also point out that this engine did not rev very high, or have […]
Okay, so technically The Empire Strikes Back is Episode V… but this isn’t about Star Wars. A little over a month ago, my little E30 made a comeback. It participated in the 1st leg of the DTM Ph Cup, which is a club racing-level event dedicated to the cars that competed from 1984 to 1989 […]
Let’s get one thing straight before we begin – I’m not a car expert. I’m not an engineer, nor am I a professional race car driver. I’m a fan, just like you (and since you’re reading AutoIndustriya, I think it’s safe to assume you’re a car fan). This little corner of cyberspace will be dedicated […]
