Haha! Thanks mang! Every one kept covering their ears when I went to do a burnout. No mufflers will do that, I guess.

It was a pleasure meeting you! I look forward to more events and gatherings.

Thanks David. I had 100 oct in it. It's not tuned for 110 oct. and yes it has come along way since that run. Lol. Make sure you give me a call when you pass back through.
Same problem i was having last time at the track. Time for LSD!!!

Have you checked into what Nissan charges for maintenance at the dealer for that car?
It's more than the E55

I got in 18 runs for the day. Its the S54 motor, but the transmission on these Z4M's are pretty crappy because BMW can't find a way to fix the 2nd gear grinding issues. BMW usually just swaps the transmission if you complain too much.

The best I ran was a 13.4@106.8 with a 2.05 60ft. I had more runs with 2.01,2.03,2.04 but grinded 2nd gear so couldn't get a clean run. Had fun for my first time at the strip even if I was one of the slowest lol..

I am switching to a 135i with the N54 in the next two weeks. Already have parts on order so I can be in the low 12's and not be so far behind everyone else at the meet lol

Try to go for an 08 135i...stronger motor.

I have them and everything will be posted in a new thread. My camcorder died in the middle of uploading, and I've been working all day. They will be up shortly.
