If the run was done in a gear with a 1:1 ratio i.e 5th for the s420g you can divide the wheel torque by the final drive ratio to get a more approximate torque figure. Easy 200+ rwkw with a tune. Do the cams allow for more top end power?

Ah yup, that owner piped up in the auction of the car in this thread. 1 owner car apparently.

This one?

Same, if I like the Alpina.

The H1 engine is a heavily modified N44 V8. So bills I'd imagine are oil leaks, coils and coolant leaks on top of supercharger potential worries. It is a cool engine though, 700nm torque and 500+ hp.

130kms I wonder how much that unique radial supercharger would cost to replace if it shat itself.

Hrmmm.

Decided to give the interior a bit of a spruce up and make it a better place to be. The driver seat has some typical bolster wear and the leather was looking a little shiny in areas. Using a 10:1 mix of meguiars all purpose cleaner, a bore hair brush and half a dozen microfibre towels, the seats and leather surfaces are much cleaner. Not a fan of leather conditioner so I only applied it to areas exposed to UV rays and wear and tear i.e inner door handles and seat bolsters. Drivers seat before : Cleaning process : After a few hours of vacuming leather cleaning and further detailing : Finished of with a thorough cleaning of the steering wheel. Amazing how much grime accumulates. Used the same cleaning process as for the leather in the rest of the interior :

You forgot less torsional rigidity. /troll. Great little cars

Nah..

Imo the nsx is the prettiest out of that list. Also the best overall performance. If i won the daily keno i'd buy the csi though and restore it to as new. I'd say the lotto strike might be needed if it's blowing smoke on hard accel.

4 e39's yes

You mean number 5? Looks like an absolutely immaculate example. Be great for a track day with the brembo's

Yeah headers and a tune nets about that based on overseas results. The standards headers are the most restrictive part of the engine setup. They share the same part # as the m60 v8 headers I believe.

You could use a parts catalog for bmw's i.e bmwfans.info lookup the exhaust parts of something like the e60 535d. The exhaust clamps should give you the measurements. Probably in mm. The e39 m5 exhaust is 2.75"

Sure. PM me.

That was the other M5... Sorry Russell !

New windshield wipers and a nose job. Before : After : Fitment is spot on. Not bad for Made in Taiwan

Where's the pix

Wheel alignment done!

Do it Michael.

Seems to have gained an extra 20whp

BS as in Bimmersport, right? ;-)

Spotted this at a Dealership in Auckland on Sat morning. Dealer did say it's not quite ready but will be asking around $40k. Very low Kms. According to carjam the mileage was at 79k kms April this year.

Maybe try re-bleeding?
