I'd almost swear this is one of MattH's jokes. Sadly, I'm probably wrong.

Nope. Is legit. That, and Matt H was never this funny.

Only if you unfurled your spinnaker.

Maybe his speedo is in kilometers. Either way, this is one of the funniest threads I've read in a while. :laugh:

It only goes to 85 mph, as evidenced by an earlier pic in the thread. I'd love to see how he hit 140 mph on those dry rotted 13" tires...

I don't think I remembered to say thats not the stock motor in it..... I don't remember what he pulled it from but it was rebuilt and then dropped into it. Ill see if i can get ahold of the guy again to see what they pulled the motor from. But its not the original motor. And the speed limit to the road I was on was 75mph and I was passing every one like there car was sitting still. When i get back from basic and I get my shifter fixed I will record a video of the acceleration and where the gears stop. I hit 30-35 and when i nail the RPM right 40 on a constant. same with second. It took a minute and a half for the speedo to catch back up. And I will do a tune up on the car when i get back and get it on a dyno to see where my actual hp sits. I will have money after basic and ait so this will all happen.

So your engine pulls to 8000-plus rpm. Cool deal.

I really don't know whether to laugh, cry, or be angry. OP, we didn't just fall off the 140 mph turnip truck.

I want to laugh because you are either the biggest dumbass or biggest troll out there.

I want to cry because you have the only M10 e21 that will go that fast and i am really jealous. Especially since it sat for 8 years and all you did was fix an intake leak.

I want to be angry because you really think we are ignorant enough to believe your crazy stories and i really don't take well to people insulting my intelligence.

Get in touch with the real world. and physics while you're at it.































and post pics of alleged girlfriend.

That would explain much. Won't he be embarrassed when he finally figures it out...

Nah; I don't think so either.

The car came with a completely rebuilt, cammed, lowered compression M10. Ready for boost. But, I'm going to rip it out and go with an M20B25.

Then did a little test fit of the BBS air dam. I think I'm going to roll with it. It'll eventually get painted and a front euro bumper added. The headlights will be replaces with a modified set of E30 smoked ellipsoids. Lots of plans, just have to find the time to make it all happen.

Coilovers and camber plates are on the way to address the less than ideal rid height.

Shit, I just read the first post. I thought this was just an E21 free for all. It was doomed from the onset. I'm out. Peeeaze.
