E46 M3, E36 M3, and my POS RSX-S :)

[smokey]

Hey, new member here. I was talking with a guy by the name of "CMT" on ClubRSX and he refered me over here. I believe he's a mod here, but don't know if he goes by that handle. Just thought I'd throw up a few pics of my buddies' M3's and my little runt of the group, my RSX-S.

I have much respect for the M3. I know I'm gonna get killed for saying this, but I think I enjoy the E36 M3 a bit better It might be just me though. Just wanted to stop in and help out my buddies as much as possible since they both want to mod, but don't have the time to slack off at work and browse internet forums like me. Enjoy!

Edit: I'm slow on the internet and don't know how to post pics here. Just click the link. Sorry!

Thanks for the welcome and the help with the pics. BTW, my friend with the E36 wanted to thank you for the advice re: power programmer. He ordered it Monday so the gap is only going to get larger for me now

Hey, whats up man. Let me tell you a little story about an encounter i had with a blue RSX-S on the street. Hope not to bore you to much hehe...

I was going back home one friday evening. I was just traveling my normal speed on the road. Only like 5 miles over the speed limit. (have like 2 tickets, $140 and $520 for speeding) sooo... i was just going my normal speed when i see a car in front of me on the left lane. I keep a constant speed and then when i get closer to the car it signals to the right (as if to let me go). So right when i get next to him he pushes it... Allmost by instinct i press the gas to the full. It revs it up to 6000rpms and i switch gear, he keeps with me (a little in front) I see a car in front of me on the lane i was at, his lane was free... so i push it even harder, i red line it and then switch gears...At the last moment !! I was far enough ahead to cut him off... so i do it... After I cut him off doing about 100mph. I push it to the limit... before i knew it i was going about 140mph, before the factory chip cut me off. This was on a 55mph 2 lane highway road. He was way behind me by that time. We both came to a red light and he pulled up next to me. I just smiled... but didn't look over my shoulder. I took the next left into a small street, as he kept on going. To this day i dont know if it was a girl or a guy... or who it was that i beat... But i do know it was a RSX-S. Although he might of had a chance to beat me... I dont know if the person just didn't switch gears in time... or cared to much about his car... or just plain couldn;t do it.

Nice story. I highly doubt that a stock RSX-S could keep up with a 330 anyway. Story sounds right to me. You run mid 14s, stock RSX's at best run high 14s. Plus, you've certainly got the displacement to run us at high speeds. Horsepower is the key there, and you've got plenty of it.

Now run someone with my setup and you'd be pushed quite a bit more!

You think you like the e36, try the e30, Most fun you'll ever have in a 4 cylinder. I miss my e30
