E90 M3 vs E30 s52

[e30trooper]

Thats a cute race. Doesn't seem like your doing more than 80mph

pretty sure if it was a 2nd 3rd and 4th gear pull. FYI 3rd gear reaches close to 90 in a chipped m20b25 w/ g260 on a 3.73 diff.

he was probably racing a e90 325i...its okay everyone gets them mixed up every once in a while. here is a link to quarter mile times for your weight to power ratio. your numbers still dont add up...http://robrobinette.com/et.htm

By your calculator, M3 ~ 3700lbs, 400bhp = 12.888 quarter. Stripped e30 at ~2500lbs, 253whp = 12.499...

kylelauffer 24v swaps are very diferent than M30 swaps.....
This car is fast bud.
its not a stock S52 its very modified...
Still a stock s52 is very fast on a E30....

Im running Bbs rx204 17x8 et38 with some cheap Toyo 235/40/17 the tire says 180 treadwear. I have to check the psi of the tires becaise maybe is to high. I have a 16x8 style 5 for the track but Im not sure if they will hold the power!

You shouldn't be slipping through 4th gear on 235 tires with 250hp and 100lb in the trunk unless the road is really wet.

And you have bald/crap tires. And an open diff.

Sorry for my comment guys, I just realized that this isn't in the U.S.

Have fun racing on public roads.

Uhmm I walked my buddies stock RSX-S (05 IRRC) in my S52 M roady. I know the E30 would eat it alive.

It was from 2nd to 4th gear

By your calculator, M3 ~ 3700lbs, 400bhp = 12.888 quarter. Stripped e30 at ~2500lbs, 253whp = 12.499...

Thanks, your number matches mine!

205whp/250hp and 253whp is equal to 300hp they are two worlds apart.

And you have bald/crap tires. And an open diff.

I have bald/crap tires and my diff is no open! Tomorrow I will try to post pics of my tires a video doing a burn out with both tires and the weigh of my car.

[sharky]

I was going to say, I have 500 whp and get traction at top of 3rd, 4th if Im not completely hammering the shit out of it

[Luis325]

Yeah his tires are killing him... its like driving on ice with those bald tires...
