1M would be cool if it didn't look so squished and was always in the shop

I have two friends with the 1M, I see them in 3 series courtesy cars more often than their cars lol.

Dude never buy that garbage me and my buddy hooked one up i mean chipped it and replaced various parts, lets say boost was 21psi, after that the car just kept falling apart drive terrain is garbage we never ever would recommend that car.:shakes head:

Was that English? Let me help...

Dude, never buy that garbage. A friend and I hooked one up (i mean chipped it) and replaced various parts (lets say boost was 21psi). after that the car just kept falling apart. drive train is garbage and we never ever would recommend that car.:shakes head:

PS; why is a car garbage if you undid what the manufacturer did not intend that car to do? Don't get me wrong, not being able to modify a car sucks, but you think bmw gives 2 ***** about you and your over hp and tq blowing their tranny/axle/diff components? I'm sure they tried to make that car run 100-200k in stock form to never have an issue. If you want power and reliability out of a car you messed with that wasn't intended for your goals, then I suggest you dig in your pockets and put in new gears, synchros, axels and LSD diffs etc. and not make it out to be there fault.

anyone who has ever "raced" a car knows that even if u have more power, u still need to know how to: shift if its 1/4 mile(manual) launch if its auto. if its road racing(track) u need to know how to use that power and use the brakes!!! U ever watch " R U Faster Than a Red Neck"???? there's your answer in a nut shell. Power does not mean faster:driving:

Be careful not to eat beans and drive if you do boost your Z. It may be disastrous!

yeah i know my English is bad thats why i became an Engineer not an English teacher/professor, anywhoo dude believe me its a pice of crap car we gave it power, little by little and every time we did, something went wrong or broke so we replaced it with aftermarket parts. First it was the oil pump, then the electrical started burning, then the intake manifold got a hole from 17 psi, then transmission broke(replaced under warranty) then we finnaly hit 21 psi with JB4 and found a boost leak on bmw straps we thought we where good it held up for 2-3 weeks then clutch slave cylinder broke we where pissed at the point cuz it was like "AAAAAAHHHH WTF Again something broke" ( ohh i almost forgot about the inter-cooler leaking, and the screws that hold exhaust fell out and the exhaust was dragging on the ground at some point ) by this time it was well knows to us that bmw sucks monkey balls, well from there Sandy hurricane came and relived us from that nightmare, and here i am about to boost my 370z with GTM MHI tt's we will see how it holds.

Will let you know next year .

You should tell this story in a BMW forum

Please god tell me you are not an engineer of anything critical or has people's life on the line.....:shakes head: This post makes my head hurt to read.
