if you hadn't missed third and managed the same trap speed as the other 13.1 run, with the 1.9 60" time.. you might have got a 13.00 or possibly just in to a 12.99 area.

what wheels/tyres?

how much tyre pressure did you have?

what suspension?

16psi boost? what turbo?

nice work for your first outing..

will get much better as you get used to it

Hey dude, i was next to you in the 13.1 run. Not fair you got more boost than me :(

What car where you in what time did u get?

Ive got 17inch mag wheels on my car and i put the back to 20psi and front i left basically normal. My cars got cut springs, i wana buy sum pineapples but im scared it might slow me down.

Yee ive got a gcg hi flow so my car spools up quickly, but i found my car went the quickest when i got a bit of wheelspin other times i tried not to wheel spin.

I was in the rexy wagon dude, i think i got like 13.8 when i ran you.

I sure did'nt expect you to pull away hehe.

When you going next? i might pose more of a threat then :(

Nice going there man. It takes quite a bit of practice to get the most outta your car on the 1/4 with a manual car.. My 60fts are always 2.4 so I need more practice..

Make sure you get a 12 next time you head out :)

yeee i hope i get a 12 nxt time jst keep my 60 ft down.

bmxwrx: Im going back in couple of weeks coz my mates taking his xr6t in for mods. He ran a 14.3 in auto last night and wana see the difference after the mods. Your cars a sleeper looks stock standard what have you done to it? Im hoping to do a few little mods before i go out next, suspension etc.

I'm running untuned atm with bigger turbo, top mount cooler and 3" zaust. Getting tuned soon, so next time i hope to be in the 12's with ya, gotta get a good jump tho :D providing my clutch is still good for it hehe

Was 14.3 stock for a xr6t? Those whales can get moving real fast once fiddled with, i'm sure you'll find out soon too.

Let me know when you going next dude, we'll have a chat next time.

    • Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i. 
    • Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.
    • Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.
    • Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.
    • It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.
