At the end of the video it said 1/4 mile in 13.139s.
Stock Z435is the one hes buying does 1/4 mile in 13.1s accord to this
http://www.fastestlaps.com/cars/bmw_z4_sdrive_35is.html
so even his stock car could have beaten the M6 in 1/4 mile.

Besides M6 has the air curtain.

[Hasan Shaikh]

It's too close to the fence.

[SHkater]

Wow, if you look in front of the Z4 at 0:40 you can see the air being bent, why isnt the same thing happening in front of the M6? Aerodynamics perhaps?

hello mate
I sorry to say, you have no chance.
Lets get the info right first.
Z4is has only 335hp and does 0-100 in 4.8s
2009 911 turbo has 493hp and does 0-100 in 3.1s (and is 35kgs lighter.)
if you really want to beat the 911 you bought the wrong car. Buy a 2012 Nissan GTR and your problem will be solved.

With a few modifications you could beat a Carrera S. well that will cheer you up.

[SHkater]

I guess the only reason that ASR 135i could keep up with the 911 Turbo was because they had a rolling start. It would be very difficult to deliver all that power to the rear wheels without traction.

lets find a good school for me and you together .. . hahahahah :lol:

but no seriously dude ,, m5board.com will not teach you a lot about the rest of the BMW cars ...

here is an example for the upgraded turbo 135I ,,, SH!!!!!T

I agree on the school and the M5Board.

And I must say Youtube will not teach you anything about any car for that matter.

Here is some food for thought for you to chew on.

P 911 Turbo

Power: 500HP
Torque: 700NM
Weight: 1,595KG
0 to 100 km/hr: 3.4 secs

P 911 GT2 RS

Power: 620HP
Torque: 700NM
Weight: 1,370KG
0 to 100 km/hr: 3.5 secs

How do you explain the 0 to 60 times for these cars?

[Ehssan]

Actually, I have studied a lot, I think it's time you did the same. :rofl2:

Unfortunately Hassan , you need to study a lot before you say that :lol:

Unfortunately, you need a lot more than HP to beat the Porka in 0 to 60 time.

if you car is 2011 Z4 then you have N55 Engine , i'm sorry to say that BMW have designed this engine to limit the power upgrade Potential so that they can use the N54 for their coming M cars which is currently in the M1 ,

If it was N54 then with Turbo upgrade - Tune and exhaust system , 3 things can bump the HP to 500 on the wheel ,, you need 450 HP to be head to head with the 911 Turbo ..

ASR tuning have done few 135I's upgrade with the help of Vishnu tuning , their cars reached 550 WHP , it beats the fully tuned/upgraded 911 turbo's ..

[Ehssan]

and BTW , your car is not 350 HP ;)

[Ehssan]

Hypothetically speaking if someone had a 2012 Z4 35is (350hp 0-60 in 4.7secs) and wanted to Hypothetically fix it up to take on or even beat a 911 turbo (500hp 0-60 in 3.5secs). how would someone hypothetically do this?

Does anyone have any idea what would be required?

Being new to the European car industry I have ideas but its someone different to the simple “bolt on American car industry”

Lastly does the club have a “parts guy / mechanic or shop”? being part of the club I would rather first bring business to club members before outsourcing.

a friend with a 335 bumped his hp to above 400 easy... not even touching the turbos I think. remap, down pipes, intakes, LSD... but definitely cant beat the Porka!
