Bmw M3 Sedan Turbo *** 0-60=3 seconds

[Para]

Hey guys, I'm new to the area. This looks like the best place to post some videos and pictures. I have hundreds of pictures and a couple dozen videos, so for now I'll just post a couple of my favorites.

For those wondering, the car is fully built with more mods than most people would car to know about. The driveline has been upgraded, all engine internals to include the head internals and head work. It's a T67 turbo running 75 lb injectors and a TEC3R. When I dyno'd 2 years ago I made 616/544 on a badly slipping clutch at about 25 psi. The motor was still fresh. The car is tuned to 29 psi, and now has a stronger clutch; I probably put down somewhere in the area of 700 with the boost turned up. I run 15-18 psi for the street on 93 octane, which is probably mid 500's to the wheels. It is my daily driver.


These are from a couple weeks ago when I got together with a buddy and his C6 Vette. We had planned to go driving for a bit but both needed gas first.

Yes, his car does look great, and yes I made it look slow.

I normally have much darker corners, but one broke so I had to use these. You can see the dark ones in other photos.

We didn't have an extra person to record the video so the video's are from my mounted camera. I only had it pointed straight so the video's where we lined up with each other are boring, it's just me accelerating. Here's a video of us cruising through some twisties (http://www.texasbimmers.com/media/Twisties.wmv) though. Speeds were 60-125 or so, I was part throttle with the boost turned down, he was not. :)

Here are a few other shots, with not nearly as good of a camera. :)

I don't have any videos of me racing any very fast cars, but here's one of me vs. Stock E39 M5 (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6722984853953013525). He was doing the honking, and was on it full throttle.

Here are a couple of my favorite videos, enjoy. :goodjob:

Timed 0-150 = My favorite (http://texasbimmers.com/media/0-150_timed.wmv)

80-180 part throttle (http://texasbimmers.com/media/80-180.wmv)

Which video? The one of me and the M5? That will be my next car to turbo.

I figure if this post is better placed somewhere else then a mod can move it. :)

Although I enjoy driving at night, mountains are better for daylight.

Although I enjoy driving at night, mountains are better for daylight.or daytime, no big deal...prefer night due to not having any traffic but deer could be an issue if you have a quiet car :tongue:

Welcome Para. You found the right Atl. board. In this board people actually enjoy talking about cars and doing things such as...making videos, racing, going to the local tracks, meeting weekly and seeing all different kinds of cars unlinke a specific section of bf.c. F.Y.I if you posted those videos in the Ga section you'd get flamed for being reckless hahah, quite the opposite here.
