Today we're going to take a tour of the Dinan S3 M3, the

brand new V-8 M3, a great little car.

We stroked and bored this engine from four liters to 4.6 liters

with intake and exhaust tuning it makes 527 horsepower and

407 pound feet of torque.

Fantastic little car to drive. It has the benefits of a big car and power with the

V-8 motor and the torque of the large displacement and also the

benefits of a small 3-series card from the handling so it's the best

combination right now of any BMW made.

the heart of the Dinan S3 M3 is the engine

It comes as a four liter V-8 and it's stroked and bored to 4.6 liters. In

addition it has an underdrive pulley,

a cold air intake with a high flow filtering carbon fiber connecting pipe

board throttle bodies

and a middle and rear exhaust section.

And only the stroker motor comes with the black chrome valve cover so you can

distinguish it from a normal M3 engine.

The engine produces 527 horsepower and 407 pound feet of

torque.

But the great thing about the engine is the torque.

With the big displacement increase it has grunt at almost all RPMs which really

makes it a nice car to drive everyday.

Now I want to talk about the Dinan M3 suspension. I'm going to start with the carbon fiber

struck brace.

A lot stronger than the aluminum unit and the carbon fiber accents the cold

air intake and makes it look really nice under the hood.

Dinan's larger wheels and tires which are a lot lighter

and also the widest in the industry in the front

275 front tire on a nine and a half inch wheel.

295 rear tire on a 10-inch wheel.

In addition a unique feature of the Dinan suspension system is new spring

perches front and rear and shorter bump rubbers that increase suspension travel so

that when the vehicle is lowered it'll still get good mechanical grip and good ride

quality.

In addition a larger front anti roll bar bar which helps the car put down power

and a strengthened rear toe link

which makes the car more stable under acceleration

and makes the car a lot easier to drive in the limit.

And all the suspension components

are designed to match the electronic shocks in the car.

Let's talk about the Dinan exhaust system.

Two and three-quarter-inch pipe

from the header at the engine all the way to the rear of the car.

We have four resonators incorporated into the middle exhaust system along with an axe pipe

and a helmholtz chamber in the rear muffler. The helmholtz chamber in the resonator is

designed to get rid of the boominess that's often associated with an aftermarket

exhaust.

In addition we have four large black ceramic coated tips with Dinan etched into the

top. So it has a great sporty look as well.

Let's talk about Brembo brakes.

Dinan uses Brembo brakes because they're the best on the market.

These are the largest Brembo brakes made for this car, 6 piston front caliper and

4 piston rear.

These are the same size breaks we also use on the M5 and the M6 and this little car

really stops great.

Thanks for coming and taking a tour of the new Dinan M3.
