ATTN: anyone want to take out a slow BMW?

**OnURleft** · 08-19-2007, 12:14 PM

This isn't a huge call out or by any means a fast car like some of these Vette's and turbo cars that dominate this section..but i'd like to chime in regardless of our slower car. Me and a buddy have a 1993 M50B25 325is with 170,000 miles, with gears and a tune and an intake and we'd like to see how it fairs against some other imports with bolt on's (I.e civics, preludes, hatches..whatever. We're really looking to see how the car does as we love how stout it is for a 2.5 but we can entertain small $ money runs for FUN..The car is all BMW and you can check the almost stock 2.5 under the hood if you don't believe us. It has full interior. We're looking for a good run to see what level this car is on before it gets something big

We always like fun running...so if your at any of the meets and cars go out we can line up.. But i'm looking for quick imports that would give this BMW a tough fight or loss..not cars that trap 109 hah. We also have a LS1, cam'd, tuned, headers, no cats, intake etc GTO in the family so i'm pretty familiar with how they run.

**The Creeper** · 08-19-2007, 12:38 PM

Nice. Ill race the Ls1 then. Death to a gto would be fine with me. Do you go to alot of the bmw meets, My friend seems to be on the bimmer forums often.

I'm all over Bimmerforums and at the meets. I am mainly at track events etc. but we put together this 325is and alot of people talk shit about 325's so we'd like to see how it runs against some imports for kicks. We rarely run the GTO but it wouldnt have a hard time putting a good pounding on a stock 6.0. Its about as fast as a C5 Z06

**The Creeper** · 08-19-2007, 12:50 PM

Yea id expect the loss. Im saving for cams/headers now. How does the 325 compare to e36 M's?

depends on what mods the M has but i'm looking for jap imports as I drive an e36 m and can run him whenever. Most 325's won't touch even stock M's without F.I, 2600lbs and bolt ons or spray

**On_Her_Face** · 08-19-2007, 05:39 PM

banannaftw should be all over this soon.

Yeah looked at his thread. Hopefully he'll be up for a clean run from a roll. We can do best of 3 or whichever and put some change down if he wants once we get some new front tires on the 325.

**On_Her_Face** · 08-19-2007, 05:58 PM

i think he's actually getting a new tranny right now, not too sure though

hmm..hopefully nothing to huge. I'm banking on driver skill to keep this sub 200k sagging headliner mobile infront.

**Big J** · 08-19-2007, 06:27 PM

I've got a 2.5L

**Maniaç** · 08-19-2007, 07:48 PM

I would give yoiu a run in my GS4, it has a few bolt ons

I like that idea but outdriving whoever i'm racing plays a part so racing a slushbox would eliminate some of what i'm looking for. But hey come out whenever we get this thing set and we can do some fun pulls

i think it would be a good run, his Gs is pretty quick. For what it is...

Just another slow wrx, its down right now.. but i should have it back hopefully by the end of the month.

keep in mind the 325 is mostly all bmw. Stock exhaust, stock as hell. Just a tune, cat delete and home made intake and a limited slip

I'd love to do this but everytime I mess around with someone with a WRX they seem to be alot faster then whatever their owners claim. 101 trap is a good amount over stock..pretty much/almost stock evo territory.

**Nyteryder** · 08-19-2007, 08:17 PM

SLushbox? such harsh words, would a 100 dollar bet change your mind at all about a race.

negative because the auto still negates one of my only few advantages in the race to start with. I've run G's, and Sc's..and quite a few in my 540 so I know how they run and its not quite fair to a 93 99% all bmw 170k 325is if you know what i mean...think about the numbers.

edit: my bad..
Didn't know it was harsh and i guess it isn't in the lexi world but a slushbox bimmer is like a hot chick with downs over on bmw forums

that was on my stock turbo set up. lol. and stock evo territory? look at what i did to a stock evo 8 with only a down pipe and exhaust..

lol at the narc calling nyteryder's 240 a slush box...noob

**IndianStig** · 08-20-2007, 04:31 PM

Thanks Billy, yeah man, I'll run you. I gotta break in my new clutch though, gimme 2-3 weeks because my car only gets driven weekends now.

I have an RSX that you can run too that might be a better match up. PM me.

**IntegraXTR** · 08-20-2007, 04:48 PM

Guess no one wants to take you up on your offer. I have a little civic and would like to run your m3. PM me time, location, etc.

**On_Her_Face** · 08-20-2007, 06:05 PM

rocky's rsx-s?.. whose faster u or him?

**IndianStig** · 08-21-2007, 03:41 AM

rocky is still ahead of me, we have to race again with this new setup, not much will change though. we'll see though, still got some issues with the clutch.

the RSX I was talking about was alberts because i took an e36 325, but this e30 is lighter so who knows should be fun. if it happens

**On_Her_Face** · 08-21-2007, 09:10 AM

ohh i wasn't sure if u were faster than rocky's car

**Z U L8R** · 08-21-2007, 10:15 AM

i'll run the bmw ^^
