m42 goonsquad outshine em all d.o.e ;)

u couldnt pay me to drive an M42 over any other engine option in the E30. passing people on the freeway is a thing

Walking > M42

rofl those lightweight numbers are the same as my full stock M3 =P

Yup, but weight is not the only important factor or even the most important.

if it wasnt a sin dat dumb s14 would be gone and a s38 in it's place. plus the s14 puts out more power at the wheels than a m20 at the crank.

Hay guys :)

[Bimmerman325i]

Lol I really don't understand your hatred with the m42 Eric..they're a blast in the twisties and dding.
I can mob on my shit all day and still hit close to 28 mpgs

I can average 28mpg in my M3 WITH torque.

[Cabriolet]

they sound terrible like a civic, the oil pans are too un-needlessly low, they have no torque, the g240 is a sloppy crap trans, hydraulic lifters(tappets)-that fail and cost a fortune, if you run the AC you cant pass people on the freeway, leaky profile gaskets, and 8.8s 0-60

pluses: timing chain!

[Bimmerman325i]

eh, hydraulic lifters don't fail that often. Otherwise I'd be fuuuuuuuucked.

You are telling me if I had a good m42 for 50 bucks, and a good m20 for 65 bucks you would buy the m42?

Of course if probably buy the m20 lol. But if I got an m42 for the right price I would love to build one.
