First time taking my e30 to a faster speed....

[supergripen]

wow!! cool pic Slide.. 240kph and some revs left!!

 

[Slide]

Super, Am sure your car can do it too. Just need a bit of clear road and go for it! I don't think it a true 240kph as i think BMW's set their speedos to read a little high.

But this proves that with the 4 speed GM auto box at least the 328s are not limited to 155mph, as there is no need. No more revs to go.

BTW for all the kids out there, don't do this. It's very very bad.

I have to say I've taken it around 200 following these two mini cooper S forum owners to Sepang. Also took it up to those speeds several times but its a little unstable cause my left front shock is completely gone.
Once I get them replaced then it back to tailing those minis again.

In the Z, I've been at 200 with the top down. Damn that thing is like riding a superbike at high speeds.

RedZ4,

We dun encourage publicity to our "runs".......you never know who is looking here : h34r:

U forgot me too, on that day

Hope u stayed back to see us in action on last Sunday....

today morning at Kesas Highway, heading towards Subang, a whole bunch of vehicles moving like cows in the fast lane, this includes a latest Merc as well. I could not tahan no more after following the procession, at a turn I overtook all of them about 6 vehicle from the slow lane side.

in less than 5 seconds I saw in the rear view mirror heck all the peskies look tiny. Then I saw my speedometer, GOSH I was doing 140 .. quickly I slowed down h34r:

the machine was so smooth did not feel any thing. Real Scary

I am yet to fix the new lungs for my machine. (Inlet manifold 325 and BBTB)

My favourite stunt is going at speed in the curves really enjoy my LSD

yeppee :yahoo:


never regret having an E30

btw, where were you. I don't recall having you follow real closely behind after the toll.

I didn't get to stay back to watch the entire race. Only got to see the beginning and had to leave.

So what happened? How did you do?

Thanks to a low credit on my T&G card, I had to take a ticket.......then u guys no where to be seen after paying.....

 

[tkew]

Tried the wira 1..6 at 190km down to singapore, same when the car is still new. Tried my 46/320, 6 -port, at 180 only so far it feel like it is a little heavy to go beyond this, is this because of the 18" or some other reason.
Can some speedster advise on this.

 

[bmwky]

hmmm....after all this talk mabbe Plotong is not so bad after all. Time to take another look at the humble wira.

 

[535i]

Speedo error ?

I m doing 110kmh in my car and a proton wira following me was doing 120kmh++ ....

BMW's speedo oledi reads higher then the actual speed, then there is also the rim size and tyre factor to take into consideration.

 

[c-square]

during my younger days (when the Balls are supposed to be bigger) I took my wira 1.3 upto 160km/h travelling from KL to Penang at 4.00am. Had no choice because need to follow a S300 Mercedes (driven by a client, whom seemed to forget that I was only in a proton) for a presentation in Shangri-la Penang at 7.00am. Now, I don't even dare take my e36 to that speed (bola sudah kecut)
