Welcome to the E21 resource, the worldwide owners gallery, and get your answers, fast! ____ Scroll naar beneden voor het Nederlandse forum! https://www.bmwe21.net/forum/
I am Secretary of the Classic Camaro Club (but also love old BMWs even if they don't have a V8) and we came up with this header!
the plan is to post up You Tube clips of your car in action/ firing up or whatever.
I have just returned to the IOM with my beloved E30 Hartge on trailer- which has been on blocks in a barn in Inverness for 5 years- and started first time! Well done BMW. (PS Camilla the camaro convertible won't start after just one winter in storage)
I know it is an E30 not an E21 (which I am looking out for) but you guys will hopefully let me off that one!
so Gentlemen START YOUR ENGINES!
If asked and permitted (etc) I might drop in the Race Camaro soundtrack- WDYT?

well guys here are the sound runs of my racing Camaro
they are very well produced by a Swedish Film crew who flew over to record the sounds for a forthcoming release! They placed 25 mics all over the car!
see:
They produce downloads for Mobiles as well
Butch is the name of my racing car and has a small block V8 that revs to 7800rpm (as you will hear!)

Here is my bmw with an m50 swap -
unfortunately theres no Hi def - 28 microphones stuck on my car by some guy who had to fly over lol. All i had was a spotty mate with a crappy nokia phone.

lol now theres a challenge! gotta love the viaduct.
think it really depends on what your using to record the noise with and how good the speakers are your playing it through..

Yes! U can't feel / hear the bass. If u get those mounts done before Sunday, u get to hear it first hand. I can cross your palm with extra coin if you help me fit them at your work!

this was taken back in the day..... 2008?
the 320 was still in it but the motronic was fitted. sounds very similar now as it still has the same backbox but different set up. plus the 325i sounds better too!

They didn't need 48 mics for these just one man and a camera;
