not bragging, I thought I was going to lose and was just doing it for fun. If I really want to do thangs I hop in the M3

[Thizzelle]

BMW had the option to run a straight 6 when they designed the M3, they chose to start new with the S14 because it was lighter and created a better weight balance. This is very well documented. An S14 belongs in only two cars, the M3 or the 320IS. Nothing else. If a 2002 needs more go, pull the head, send it to someone who knows how to do a good port and polish job, add a cam and big carbs and go from there.

Yes I am a purest when it comes to keeping a car whole, I'm not a purest when it comes to modifying the correct motor to be bad ass. In the case of the M3, the motor makes the car, otherwise its pretty much just an E30 with a very expensive and very effective body kit. (A bit over simplified, but you get the idea.)

true, onlything I would do is go from a 2.3 to the EVO 2.5L once this one starts taking a shit.

Vivek, that's my parents' neighbor's car. Nice guy. He's had that thing forever, sad to see he's selling it! Hahaha and that's the road we used to all fuck around on and go retardedly high speeds on. Harbor bay pkwy.

Ahhhhh fuck, i'm going home tomorrow after my last final for the first time in 2 months + ...which also means I'll be seeing my E30 for the first time since mid January! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:bow::bow::bow::bow::bow:

Based on the last pic it seems like a fun road to go 80+ on hahaha

[craiggroves91]

Fuck, I hope it's not that. There's no vibrations or anything, and it's not a consistent whine at all. Just squeaks off and on.

Springs and shocks are common to squeak back there I think?

Maybe old bushings?

my car sneaks in at around 30s and 1:20s. Can hear the supercharged M42. :D

All bushings are new. I believe it's one of my exhaust hangers, the one on the subframe. I could replicate the sound by pushing gently on the muffler.
