    Default '05 M3 vs 5.7 GTO vs '95 240sx

    Sat night pretty much sucked other then the race between the "05 M3 and the 5.7 GTO. I always go up there to run someone, so I had to jusp in with the M3 and the GTO so I can actually have someone to chase after. everyone else for some reason just stayed back. every run between the M3 and the GTO, the M3 won by a few cars. the guy with the GTO said that the M3 jumped every time. I don't know about the first 3 times they ran, but the last time I opened my window and got next to the M3. I then actually heard the 3 honks. But damn, those were the most spread apart honks I have ever heard. the M3 left on the 3rd honk but the GTO laft about half a second later. probably cause you can't really time that 3rd honk if they're so far abart. but anyway, M3 won again and this time right at the end of that 4th run I can swear the GTO's reverse lights came on for a split second. Oh and thanks to the guy stuck in my racing seats, I driving the nearly stock 240sx didn't just lose really bad. I lost really really bad . Good thing for the torque , I got up to about 130 no problem every time to be able to see who won, kind of.

    M3 - chip, exhaust
    GTO - I think stock, the guy just bought it

    the GTO also comes with a 6.0
    they specifi when the are either 5.7 or 6.0
    I don't know what they have if they don't say on the back

    04 GTO's have the LS1 which is a 5.7
    05+ GTO's have the LS2 which is a 6.0, 05+'s are also distinguishable with true dual exhaust, and the optional hood with ram air ducts...

    both are good motors, just a real heavy car.....

    Kyprotonite, what are you running? car, hp, mods.....

    making sure the damn thing won't go back if I ever decide to go drifting like the normal one did last time and left me on the side of the road 5 minutes after i was done drifting with the heavy ass 350Z rims I had on

    and I'm also planning on boosting it or installing NOS
