What is your 1/4 mile time and mods?

[drifty340i]

she does 15 flat no joke i reckon i could almost get into the 14s if i was not running 17inch mags. ive driven other "grey market" 325i and belive me mine is quicker.it has a factory hi flow extractors so i know its a little different.i brought it off my old man and he brought i new so i know the history.
yip it does have a 3.64 diff

[nzer]

I really call BS on that one! HC only in NZ? sure, and in 1986 all of the 325i cars I have come acros had a 3,64 rear diff vs 3,73later, which would also slow it down in the Qmile

A few of these highcompression motors are around in NZ - The cars came badged as M325i from the factory (but not all M325i, got the high compression motor). When I was rebuilding my motor the high compression pistons were an option from the dealer.

Granted that is half a second faster than most people get from a standard 325is, I can see how it is feasible assuming it's a light car (close to 2500) with the right driver, considering the slightly stronger motor

[drifty340i]

just yo be cheeky but that run was with full car audio to!2 subs amps etc
my car has no air con fitted so that keeps the weight down and its the 2door which is a bit lighter to.

bump from 7 years ago!!!

Anyone have 1/4 mile times?? Specifically more times for the 318is!

EDIT:

Do I win the prize for the resurrection of the oldest thread ever? ;)

[5Toes]

Maybe

[TimR]

Yes, THE PRIZE YOU DESERVE!!!!! 1983/ 96 inch Shovelhead Harley, 70% Nitro 8" slick 9.50's 165 mph Slow for the time but when steering amounted to leaning or dragging steel towed boots, after 2 years i'd had enough, Sorry its not a BMW. WE SHOULD ALL MEET AT BANDIMIERES in Denver on a test and tune day and go for it!!!

Yeah what are people getting with M50's?

Wrong time of year to ask that question huh?

I have seen this thread before, but unfortunately a swapped car will not have an M42 in it. Unless it is a 2002 with an M42 but no one does that...

There ya go!!

But you DO know that in the reference frame of a bystander on the street, your stopwatch will be counting the seconds slower than his stopwatch that he is holding, so your times won't agree, even if you both started and stopped your stopwatches simultaneously, which of course can be a problem because simultaneity is also relative in different reference frames. Not only that, but your rest frame is non-inertial, so your measured time can't be the "proper time" anyway.

...So go ahead and take (approximately) 0.0000000000000000001 seconds off that time...
