Off-topic discussion / What is your 0-60 time??
« on: March 14, 2009, 07:42:37 PM »
Sorry guys, but i had to ask.

What was the original, and maybe your own current 0-60 timed on a track, and maybe the miles your car has (compression ratios if you want too :D)

just curious, and thanks.

Engine management / Crankshaft Position Sensor?
« on: September 01, 2008, 03:34:50 PM »
i had the same problem one night coming home from a friends house,  floored it, and i think the cams just rolled over, and got out of sync. i had to rev the engine near red line all the way home or else the engine would jerk. disconnected my spark wires, took off head gasket, got in the car and cranked the engine, real quick, two or three times. Replaced the head unit, wires, started right up and ran fine ever since. tell me how it works out.

Shipping to the US might be the killer, but would you be willing to fabricate sell and ship your invention?

If not would you submit your design to fabricators here in the states to use?

The new Lambo Gallardo Supperleggera has it, the new Nissan GT-R has it, and if you don't know what I'm talking about, get out from under your rock and watch these.

In Japanese (i know), but gives you a real look at the guts of the car

is their any form of this on the market for our M42 BMW's? If so, share, and if not, why not?:D

Swaps, Turbos, Buildups / Power gain on a 16 year old's budget
« on: August 11, 2008, 03:11:26 AM »
anyone got any ideas on custom fitting manifolds and exhaust systems, a lot of our cars are missing the driver side high beam for the cold air intake already, has anyone fitted fatter pipes on their exhaust system for the calculated maximum size, and and what about, this is just a thought, maybe selling them on M42club?

are you telling me nobody on this forum has done the calculations for the back-pressure on the stock M42 engine, and custom fitted fabricated pipes w/ or w/out converters and/or resonators?
