The E36 became the embodiment of the luxury sports sedan, and the standard that other manufacturers strived to reach. As such, the BMW 3 Series became wildly popular; BMW manufactured 2.67 million E36 cars worldwide from 1991 to 1999.
The new E36 featured a more aerodynamic design, potent dual overhead cam engine, multilink rear suspension, and a more luxurious interior than its predecessor.
Veteran author Jeffrey Zurschmeide delves into the different methods for extracting more performance, so you can make your E36 even more potent. He explains how to upgrade handling and control by installing aftermarket coil-over springs, bushings, sway bars, and large brakes. Producing more power is also a priority, so you see how to install and set up cold-air intakes, ignition tuners, and exhaust system components. You are also guided through work on cylinder heads, cams, and pistons.
Each major component group of the car can be modified or upgraded for more performance, so you can build a car that's still balanced and refined yet better. If you want to make your E36 a quicker, better handling, and more capable driving machine, this book is your indispensable guide.
