Sounds just like my old M5 (not much of a surprise, that, haha). Good stuff!
ive only "launched" it quickly off the line a few times ever. being NA its a doddle to juggle it just right but it wasnt intentional to touch the limiter.
been speaking to a couple e36 m3 drivers on the evo board and they get much higher average mpg than i do so MAF and lambdas are a MUST and they could result in more firepower

Ahh man... I was down near hanningfield yesterday in fact my mechanic is just less than a few hundred yards up the road from those lights. Some awesome roads over that way. Looks like you had just enjoyed some watery lane fun!
Good job.

All the e36 talk here and after driving a 323 yesterday I'm seriously wanting a 328

Drink the same as a 323, cost the same in servicing and 200 quid dearer to insure. Only 400 a year more than the Golf this year.
Sounds nice! I'll be going for an E36 M3 next I think.
By the way, how did you mount your phone? I've got a cheapo suction-cup mount and it rattles all over the place, no good for videos.

I've used a nokoa cr-115 with my sgs2 a that doesn't shake too much

I've just got an e36 evo vert for a weekend toy, takes some getting used to how hard you have to drive compared to the M5 , it seems to rev forever. The throttle is annoyingly hard going, it's slightly better after cleaning the link to the throttle mech but still seems heavy and not very responsive. The butterflys do seem stiff when opening them under the bonnet though are they likely to need lubing up?
Mine was overly stiff *sigh*
First it was due to someone previous misfiting the *boble* on the end of the cable. That was an easy fix but it went stiff again after I refited it incorrectly in a hurry. Now that its sorted its miles better to drive. Gf hated it, it was very hard to drive smoothly at all

The cable seems fine when the throttles are held open, much easier to operate, previous owner gave me a cable but not fitted it due to the the pedal feeling ok when not connected.

Mine is very hard aswell, I bought a cable from bm last week for £22 I lubed all the moving springs linkages etc on the throttle, and the new cable made it loads better but compaired to my other cars it's still stiff but I think that is going to be a normal s50 thing.
Watery Lane, just for you.
