Kiertomäntä Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 E21-bodied 3-series BMW built into group 5 in 1977. Car had 1.4 litre straight-4 engine producing around 600 horsepower with 3 bar of boost and had total weight of 780kg. All this with 1970s turbo technology... Car was almost always the fastest on track and usually won if the engine managed to hold until the end, although Porsche took the championship due to BMW's unreliability. This is the ESCI's kit straight from the 1970's and I really can't recommend it to anyone. Nothing fit to anything and the plastic was as hard as a rock and as brittle as a glass, even slight twisting broke parts. Even if this is reissued, I the fitment issue would still remain. I used DIY printed JPS decals and some Reji models decals meant for 635CSi hence the slight difference with gold shade in decals. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
