on the e90post forum which i have joined not long ago a few guys were saying they have beaten e39 m5 in there 335i i personally coudlnt see that myself considering the e39 m5 is 5.0 litres of pure v8 with 400 +bhp

but

yesterday i came across one, Y plate 2001 and i thought i woudl give it a try expecting to get cained

didnt happen, three times we floored it from around 40mph to well over a ton the gap remained constant at about a car length, i was soooo impressed, think he was pissed off cuz afterwards i flashed and thumbed up but he didnt want to acknoledge me PMSL

few people also on this other forum have said they have quartered in 13.5 along side a m5 which has done the same.

who woudl have expected a diesel to stay with an m5

bring on the re-map!!!


carl

 

maybe it was a lesser model with fake badging

 

lol doubt it mate, no other 5 series model would stay with it anyhow

also it would have been convincing reppy with mirrors and exhausts too

like i said the US boys have found the same

 

335d? I thought it was 320 or 330d?

 

335d mate twin tubby, 286bhp and 430 ib ft torque, goes well

 

Very good going considering your 100+ BHP down.

 

i know mate few kilos down aswell and more areodynamic also, and about 100 ib ft torque up on the m5

 

Should be an absolute animal when it's remapped.

 

You joined that forum to brag about your dad's car?

Cool

 

I used to work at the local BMW dealership but left 6yrs ago, i pop in now & again to see peeps if a need some bits etc & one of the technicians was saying that the torque is unreal on the 335TD he says people that are waiting for new M5's are buying these instead, can't see it myself but thats what he said.

Simon.

 

m5 owner has the last laugh tho, it's his name on the log book

 

its the torque ur diesel will pull alot faster at lower revs, u get to higher than 100 and u will start loosin esspecially if he's got the 155mph restrictor off, if u went from a stand still i dnt know i reckon he might win!! only one way to find out

 

Diesels are the way forward imo.

gotta agree with you there mate, as soon as they can make a power band like a petrol (if thats possible) the immense tourque will piss over petrol.


iim going to say some thing scary, how long till we see an rs desil, or a cosworth desil road car

 

I think some of you guy's should drive a modern diesel, my 730 dl with it's tuning box is nearly as quick as my RS and there's no messing about getting the revs up it's got nearly 500 flbs from 1200 revs.

 

 

I have an E39 M5, and I had a play with a 335i Petrol (not a diesel so far).

He did quite well to be fair, but as the speed built, the advantage that I had over him began to finally make itself shown (though not by much LOL)

Mind you, after the first bend, he was fucked! No LSD in these 335is (diesel or petrol!!!!). Happy to prove my point with you on a twisty road, chappie

dont they do an mtec or a sports version with a diff?

 

yeah pon, i dont really give a fuck, i dotn want to spend 40k + on a car so im okay and i get to drive it everyday, so i would say im doin alrite thanks



also i was with wiht easy to well over the ton, maybe from 130-140 onwards it woudl pull away, this handles like a dream anyhow round bends and im sure could do much better with an lsd, but i wwouldnt count it out round a track against a big top heavy 5 series

 

 

I bet you haven't even told the other forum members that it's your Dad's and are still trying to pass it off as your own!

I like the "I don't want to spend" bit too......

 

Bet an M5 would beat a 318i though would like to have a go in MY E46 M3 against a 335i to see what its like

 

not much in it really. the 0 - 60 time is the same in the M3 Cab and the 335i, bet the M3 is a bit quicker all round. I prefer the look of the 335i myself thou.

 

Each to their own mate, obviously i prefer the look of the E46 M3, M3 is 0-60 in 5.2, not sure on the 335i, mine will be a bit quicker once the super charger is on there

 

pon you silly fcuk, i posted up the day we picked it up you peanut

never once said it was mine

i just love the fact im driving it

regardign e46 m3 there lovely,

surely tho an e39 m5 is faster than the e46 m3? so therefore the 335d shoudl be with it easily

and once remapped will be really good

PON your comment is so silly, why woudl i try pass it off as my own, is that something you would do?

 

richie i have been out in few m3 demos and a csl that have been brought home etc, and i would say it feels as quick as a e46 m3 but untill you get the two together

 

does your dad know you've been racing his car then?

 

daddy dosent mind, he even told me to take it to the pod and is enquring bout a re-map

he said enjoy it

 

i await future posts then...

"look what i did to daddy's beemer"

take it easy though!!

 

thanks mate, least some people have the right attitude

 

If my old man had a 335i BM then i would be driving that a lot too, or as much as he would let me, but im not so enthusiastic with an Omega

 

 

nice mate, cant wait to have a trip out in this mate, is the ol chap gonna have it re mapped? shes a sexy lookin beast

get her to the pod!

 

I borrowed my dads Lexus once and had a race with a new Golf GTi. When I told him he said "you'd better have beaten him, I don't want you giving my car a bad reputation"

 

defo each to their own. The cab is 5.5 i believe, same as the 335i.

I do love the look of the M3 too, awesome cars. In fact the M cars and the coupes are the only bmws i really like.

 

No mate - when my cousin looked at this, he was told that they dont as they dont want it to intefere with the M3 sales market


JJ

 

yes mate jus took these when i just got back









chris yeah mate he rekons so, will be 350+bhp i think and 500 ib ft torque once remapped

when you back me old son

18th may fella, lloking forward to a trip out in her fella.
