In this thrilling episode of Gintani's automotive escapades, we delve into the adrenaline-fueled world of high-performance car building. The team reminisces about their glory days crafting record-breaking v10s and V8s, with a special mention of the iconic e92 M3 once owned by none other than the late Paul Walker. A collector's eagerness to breathe new life into this legendary machine reignites their passion for the project, promising to showcase it at various car shows and events for enthusiasts to revel in.
But wait, there's more to this tale than meets the eye. Gintani takes us on a nostalgic journey recounting the serendipitous encounter between one of their own and Paul Walker himself on a chance flight. What started as a casual conversation about cars blossomed into a lasting friendship, culminating in the team building a supercharged e92 M3 for the Fast and Furious star, all thanks to a favor from their mutual friend, Roger. The camaraderie shared over a shared love for speed and horsepower forged an unbreakable bond that transcended mere car talk.
As the team reflects on their time racing the e92 M3 in heart-pounding time attack events, they fondly recall the triumphs and challenges faced on the track. From setting street tire records at California Speedway to navigating mechanical setbacks with the car's rod bearings, every twist and turn in this automotive saga adds layers of depth to their shared history. Plans for future modifications, including a twin-turbo project on an E90 M3, were tragically cut short by the untimely loss of both Paul Walker and Roger in a devastating accident, leaving behind a legacy of speed, friendship, and unfinished dreams on the asphalt.
