wow... didn't think it'd go 0-60 that fast... I'll have to take mine out for some tests.

Why did it need a new engine in 87?

I do my hot roddin' in my 87 325is


i took it out and did a 0 to 60 run to check rpm's at shift and et. shifted at 4500 and hit 60 in 8.81. standing start using power brake method for takeoff. maybe speedo is off but i don't think so. car also gets only 20mpg under normal driving. btw it is an 84 528eA w/ engine replaced in 87 or so by po. oh well, it's a great car and it's my daughters daily driver anyway. so i'll stick to hot roddin' in my 80 528i. thanks for all the help.
