1997 BMW M3/4 Turbo

[Para]

I'll be moving into the Athens area in September. This board was recommended to me by a few people so I figured that I'd check it out. I'll post some video's and pictures of my car tomorrow on the other parts of the board.

BMW drivers don't have shit sticking out of them everywhere?

[Echonova]

With BMW's the prick in on the inside.LOLOLOLOLOL..... I Keed I Keed. Anyway, Athens is a cool town. You will like it here, it's like San Diego but without the nice weather, awe inspiring sights, and general laid back attitude. On the up side, there are less homeless people and it's pretty cheap. What brings you this way?

[Echonova]

Anyway, don't let me ruin your impression of this board. There are some really good people here. Hope to see you around!!!

[GSRteg®]

You must not have watched the video's. 0-60 in 3 seconds on street tires and low boost.

Welcome Paradigm Guy. you will see a few guys like CT9A from kills section try to taunt you, dont fall for the trap. :goodjob:

Thanks. I guess someone has to live up to the ricer name.

[ct9a gsr]

I don't get it... is that like me saying someone has to live upto the pompous asshole BMW driver name? I'm not one to stereotype but you sure are fitting the bill pretty well. Jeez... I ask a simple question and you can't answer it, but instead try to flex with a woopdie-doo video of you driving with a pair of pre-conditions like you're going to impress onlooking readers... I tried to be nice, but I suppose that doesn't work well with someone as arrogant as you. Learn some humility while you still have a chance... just some friendly advice for you.

... now answer my question and don't be shy now... is it fast? ^_^

[2.3 Evo 8]

Damnit Charles, it won't let me rep you you bastard.

actualy hes one of the most humble guys i know.

he posts vids showing the vehicles acceleration and also you see his numbers in his sig. yet you still ask is it fast? why would you ask is it fast? isnt it obvious its not slow? theres absolutely no reason to ask twice or thrice.

[Fr33way]

0-60 is sweet for mag racing but do you have any 60 feet, ETs, or trap speeds?

Awesome car BTW, hope to see more of it.

[drmcivicsi]

damn charles be nice, i say you 2 race =)

[GGPIS3]

i say they just have a pissing contest and get over with ikt. whoever can piss the furthest distance wins 10,000 rep point on SSI... wooohooo! lol

[iloveboost]

This thread took a different direction.

Charles picking on the Bimmer guys, haha.

LOL - I drive an 800 HP M3 as a daily driver. Does it look like I need your advice on what you think is smart?

That has to be one of the most pompous-asshole comments I've read in awhile on here... very humbling of him to say indeed... as well as his retarded answer to my is it fast question. Yes, it's obvious he's not slow... that doesn't mean the opposite is true as well. Besides... I'm not asking him if its fast because I don't understand what his #'s mean (616 ~ 800 depending on how much enzyte he takes before he posts?)... I'm asking to get an understanding of his idea of "fast" and to see how arrogant he'd be in the face of that question. If he was humble, maybe he'd actually get his head out of his own ass and be nice... especially when being new on a big forum like this.

Besides, being humble around people you know means nothing when you're an asshole around people you don't.

[iEvo]

ok i can see whats coming.....can i video??????

[drmcivicsi]

lol haha i know im a asshole but i got to point something out u saying u make 800hp daily on a t67? i fucking call bullshit i want dyno sheets and vid?

[iloveboost]

lol haha i know im a asshole but i got to point something out u saying u make 800hp daily on a t67? i fucking call bullshit i want dyno sheets and vid?
I think he means 800BHP, which he is still shy by at least 30HP even if he factors a 25% drivetrain loss.

[drmcivicsi]

I think he means 800BHP, which he is still shy by at least 30HP even if he factors a 25% drivetrain loss.

lol then again he better watch what he says cuz theres a big diff between 800 crank and 800 whp i still think its bullshit i want dyno sheets and a vid if not then its just bullshit or a race with a other 800hp car

[2.3 Evo 8]

O.o

You don't know what I know BO!

[Leadfoot_mf]

so i guess the question still stands. is it fast?

[2.3 Evo 8]

It's thuper fast! Geez weez guys don't you know a thfast car when you thsee it?

[Para]

Looks like I'm behind a few posts...

No 60 foots or 1/4 times. I haven't taken it to the drag strip without breaking something yet. I'm bringing my DR's out to GA though so we'll see. I put in my new (built) axles on Friday so the only things left to go are the tranny and subframe. I don't thing I have enough power to destroy either of those.

As to the is it fast guy...When you asked the question I figured you were some 16 year old kid who didn't know much about cars, I answered accordingly. It didn't seem like you were asking if I think it's fast. But yes, I think that it's fast, do you?

For the BS guy. Let's go with just 20% drive line loss. How about my pink slip againt yours says that I can hit 640 RWHP which would be 800 hp? I'll pay for the dyno.

Iloveboost - check your math. 75% of 800 (25% loss) is 600.

[iloveboost]

Oh noez, m4th 3rr0r.

I fail at life.

[hydroshutter]

Putting up your pink slip to your '97 M3 to prove a dyno war!!!?!?!?

Ballin', fo sho.

[Para]

Ballin', fo sho.
It's not about ballin'. :) I wouldn't make the claim in the first place if I couldn't back it up. I don't even know what the guy drives, but as long as it pays for my dyno it will be worth it to me. ;)

FWIW, it's clear that this forum isn't for me though. I didn't join this board for any reason other than to meet some fellow car enthusiasts for when I come out to GA. But this crowd isn't for me, even if they do like cars.

[b0ki]

Nice car ... i am happy to see more and more boosted BMW :) to bad iam not boosted :D

Charls but this ways 600 rwhp M is like driving a 750 awhp evo.... so yeah is kinda quick. at least i think phil cars is quick :P


Ohh u never know maybe his # are pump gas # LOL

[RJ's325ITS]

As to the is it fast guy...When you asked the question I figured you were some 16 year old kid who didn't know much about cars, I answered accordingly. It didn't seem like you were asking if I think it's fast. But yes, I think that it's fast, do you?

Paradigm relax.. Charles "CT9" has a quick car is an evo8 with some shit done to it, and he is a pretty cool guy we have hang out a couple of times, he has a couple of videos for you to get a better idea of who you are talking about; check out the evolution of the evolution cool video.

I think you profiled a lot of this guys with your answers, yes some are 16 years old w/ rice out hondas but some others are your age and drive cars as fast as your and also had your same knowledge about cars.

Daniel "Iloveboost" is another cool guy.... he loves racing and he is very humble and doesnt talk BS like half of the ppl in here.

Daniel relax Para is a cool guy too.

Paradigm I think you should wait until you come and you can meet all these guys and person, half of them are awesome and halt are a bunch of deeee deeee deeeeessssss.

__________________________________________________ ____


Charles you and him will be one of those races that is worth making a video, no matter the out come. he has a lot of game for you but I think you need to be at you max potential like him..... remember that BMW are fast with low power; like my that at 340 tag along with a 430 vett.. picture his with over 600whp on pump gas low boost, it will be just like your evo fast as hell on pump we can only guess in c16...:ninja:


---------------------------------------------------------------

so far BMW have a 17% drivetrain loss.

[RJ's325ITS]

Welcome Paradigm Guy. you will see a few guys like CT9A from kills section try to taunt you, dont fall for the trap. :goodjob:

when are we racing Shawn........... :thinking:

[The Creeper]

A GTO calling another car slow. Oh the irony. :rolleyes:

[The Creeper]

I don't see the irony in that. My car has 4000whp. True story.
