Here is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own the history and legacy of Horsepower Freaks at a fraction of the cost. In the past year the car has only been tracked once. Well over $150k has been invested in this vehicle. This is the same vehicle that has been on the covers of multiple magazines throughout the years.

BIO:

"The E46 M3 was reinvented by Horsepower Freaks with a completely new approach to power and style.  The elaborate body kit was designed by Perry from Asuka Design to deliver a low coefficient of drag, plenty of down-force and stunning looks. Everything from the front bumper to the rear bumper was painted with Standox paint including the roll-cage, engine, and interior trim pieces.  

The car was stripped of several hundred pounds of excess weight thanks to HPF.  Nearly 40 man hours were spent stripping the chassis harness of all non-essential items or swapping OEM stuff for lighter gear.  Even with the added weight of the cage, wing, widebody and turbo kit the M3 weighed in at 3,127 lbs.  With the driver in the driver's seat, the car now has near perfect 50:50 weight distribution.  

One of the most important aspects of every car built for the track is traction and loads of it.  HPF chose VIP Modular for their extremely strong and lightweight wheels.  The 19x10 and 19x13-inch wheels were custom built and feature a gloss black lip and matte finish on the center. VIP Modular even etched the letters "HPF" directly onto each wheel.  Wrapped in Hoosier R6 265 slicks in the front and 325's in the rear all of the necessary traction is there. 

The handling was critical to this track beast and the parts were chosen wisely. HPF selected the OS Giken differential and improved acceleration exiting turns and increased durability. A set of KW Variant 3 coil-overs were chosen which provide dampening and rebound adjustment and the UUC lower control arms were used to add rigidity and adjustability.  HPF took chassis tuning even further and installed their own front under brace to tie the front suspension points together.

The entire chassis was dramatically stiffened with a custom gusseted roll-cage built and installed by Racetech Motorsports.  The interior was stuffed with Sparco Circuit Pro race seats and RCI 5-point seat belts.  HPF retained the factory dash and modified it to fit within the roll-cage constraints to keep the BMW feel.  The steering wheel is a Vertex which easily disconnects from teh Rothsport Racing quick release hub.  To monitor engine parameters, this beast was equipped with an AEM fuel pressure guage, AEM oil pressure gauge, AEM boost gauge, and an AEM wideband.

Running the fully built HPF S54 engine, the block was bored and plateau-brushed using state of the art Sunnen equipment.  It was then balanced and stuffed with HPF-spec pistons, rods, main studs, wrist pins, rings and bearings all done by M&B Cylinder Heads. The stock S54 head flow so well, that HPF didn't need to massage or modify the head or even the cams, but it did require ARP L19 studs to clamp it down. The S54 utilizes dual VANOS technology that allows HPF to position the camshafts + or - 20 degrees for every RPM and every boost level, giving all kinds of timing adjustability along with the drivability of a grocery getter.  

This vehicle was tailored specifically for the track with the HPF Stage 3 Turbo system that make well over 800rwhp when the button is pressed and 650rwhp when the button isn't pressed.  The HPF Magic button is right by the steering wheel and switches maps when the driver wants an additional 150rwhp on those long straights to pass everyone and everything. To hold the power HPF turned to JDM manufacturer OS Giken and their triple clutch. As most of you know this car is the real deal. It has been on the cover of countless magazines.

To feed the six-shooter, HPF installed twin Walboro 255lph fuel pumps in addition to the factory fuel pump. To maintain fuel pressure, AEM's high volume fuel pressure regulator was used which feeds fuel under pressure to HPF's fuel rail and into six RC Engineering 1200cc low impedance injectors.  Okada projects plasma direct ignition coils store up spark energy and NGK racing spark plugs fire the intake air charge for each cylinder. The boost comes from a Precision dual ball-bearing billet wheel turbo running an .81 A/R.  The turbo spools insanely quickly, yet still flows enough to make 800rwhp surprisingly well. 

This is achieved via computer controlled boost feedback through the HPF/AEM EMS system and the TiAL 44mm V-band wastegate.  To vacate the intake system of pressure when the ITBs are closed, twin HKS Super Sequential BOV's were installed one directly in front of the intake manifold, and one directly after the turbo.  To cool the intake charge a massive HPF intercooler was used which measures 24x12x4 inches with a 95-percent efficiency rating. All of this cool air is forced into the engine via the HPF flow benched "orange" intake manifold which equalizes air to all six cylinders.  To keep everything tight under pressure, all of the silicon couplers were designed by HPF for precise fitment and they all utilize 5-layer silicone so the t-bolt clamps won't loosen up.  

To keep the engine cool during long track sessions, HPF installed the Active Autowerke mechanical fan which utilizes a stiffer clutch as the factory clutched fan will often slip during hard abuse.  They also wired the air conditioning fan to stay on once the car is started and left the factory fan shroud in place to improve air flow through the radiator. To keep the oil cool, they designed an additional oil cooler that runs in series with the factory oil cooler." - Text by Dave Pankew of pasmag.com

BMW i5 returns as next rumored i Project vehicle

Thu, Sep 17 2015

Hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle enthusiasts may want to give each other some high-fives when they hear the latest news about BMW's reputed i5. The German automaker has been rumored to be on the verge of expanding its i brand beyond its i3 battery-electric and i8 plug-in hybrid cars for a long while. The latest rumors say that BMW could be working on a hydrogen-powered i5 crossover. BMW is in the "final stages of consideration" of expanding the sub-brand, Bloomberg News says, citing comments BMW executive Ian Robertson made this week at the Frankfurt Motor Show. There may be more light-weighting efforts, and an alternative powertrain is sure to be in order, but there are few details beyond that. BMW of North America spokeswoman Rebecca Kiehne declined to comment to AutoblogGreen. Since 2013, BMW has worked with Toyota on hydrogen fuel-cell drivetrains and might further expand that relationship, MarketWatch says, citing BMW financial chief Friedrich Eichiner. The two automakers have already worked together on a prototype BMW 5 Series sedan with a hydrogen-powered engine. That car was unveiled this summer. Earlier this year, we heard reports about an i5 that would actually be a hybrid-electric vehicle of sorts, and an extremely powerful one. That rumored vehicle – again some sort of modified 5 Series – would actually contain one gas-powered engine and two electric motors, all combining for more than 540 horsepower. If these latest rumors turn out to be true, they would mark a change in things, but we won't be surprise if we hear yet another version of what the i5 will be before it's all said and done.

BMW jazzes up the Z4 with Pure Fusion Design package

Sun, 15 Dec 2013

While the new M3 sedan and M4 coupe may be the big news, they're not the only things that BMW has in the cooker. The Bavarian automaker has just announced a new special edition that serves to highlight the Z4 roadster.
Called the Pure Fusion Design package, the specially-equipped Z4 incorporates Nappa leather trim in ivory with brown stitching covering the seats, armrests and door panels. The lower dashboard is done up to match in white, with brown-accented black leather upper dash, window sills, sun visors and instrument surround. A brown leather line accents the interior, with Fineline wood trim.
BMW is offering the Z4 Pure Fusion Design in the unique shade of sparkling brown metallic pictured here, along with other available colors, and customers can combine the package with the M Sport pack as well. Scroll down for the full press release.

Orlando Bloom gets custom BMW S 1000 R by Deus Ex Machina

Tue, May 19 2015

Gearheads can meet in the most unlikely of places. Take Orlando Bloom and Michael "Woolie" Woolaway. One was starring in a film where the other was working as a gaffer – we'll let you figure out which was which – and a friendship was kindled over their love for motorcycles. As it turns out, Bloom is a bit of a BMW bike enthusiast, and Woolie is the head of the famous Deus Ex Machina custom shop in Venice. The pair teamed up to create a custom four-cylinder Bimmer bike for Bloom based on the S 1000 R, and took it into the Malibu Hills for its first shakedown. Considering the Hollywood setting where they met, it should come as little surprise that they brought a film crew along to artfully document the experience, which you can watch in the four-minute clip above. BMW Motorrad and Orlando Bloom present the BMW S 1000 R Custom. Michael "Woolie" Woolaway from Deus Ex Machina turns Orlando Bloom's vision of a custom bike into reality. Munich/Los Angeles. Everyone knows Orlando Bloom as a successful actor, but not everyone knows about his passion for motorbikes. As a long-standing fan of BMW motorcycles, Orlando Bloom owns and rides a number of BMW models, including old classics. For his own custom bike project he specifically chose the BMW S 1000 R. He asked his good friend, Michael "Woolie" Woolaway, head of the Deus Ex Machina custom shop in Venice, CA, USA, to work with him to bring his custom S 1000 R vision into reality. The result of the cooperation, is a stunning one-off 4 cylinder bike. The S 1000 R Custom and Orlando Bloom had their first test ride in the Malibu Hills while shooting "4CYL", a production by Arthur de Kersauson and Clement Beauvais in cooperation with BMW Motorrad.
