In Larry Chen's latest masterpiece, he unveils a BMW E92 like no other, packing a roaring RB30 engine stroked to 3.2L, churning out a tire-shredding 850hp. This beast was born out of a chance encounter with a green E92 at the dyno, sparking the idea to go against the grain with an RB powerplant. The engine, a rare find from Australia, sports an RB26 head, a combination that screams pure performance. Chen's meticulous build process saw this BMW transformed into a Formula Drift Prospec contender in a mind-blowing two-month sprint.
Under the hood, the E92 boasts a stock subframe with solid bushings and a Quick Change differential, ensuring optimal performance on the track. Nitrous injects a dose of adrenaline for spool aid, strategically utilized to keep the power manageable and the tires intact. The transmission, a Speed Tech RB25 box, with a four-speed dog set, handles the 1,000hp output with finesse, retaining the fifth gear for good measure. Chen's attention to detail extends to the modified transmission tunnel, designed for both safety and quick access during high-pressure moments on the track.
Despite its raw power, the BMW E92 surprises with its agile handling and precise control, a testament to Chen's expertise in crafting a well-balanced drift machine. This unique build stands out in a sea of conventional choices, showcasing Chen's commitment to pushing boundaries and setting new standards in the drifting world. With every rev of the engine and every drift around the corner, Larry Chen's BMW E92 proves to be a true masterpiece, blending power, precision, and passion in a symphony of tire smoke and adrenaline-fueled excitement.
