Nearly out run by a EVO IV at a traffic light sprint last Saturday....
lucky that i can still win with a few car distance to the next traffic light by full throttle
I'm sure it will definitely out run me if the distance is longer or the driver shift faster.....
Damn..... I NEED MORE POWER!!!

Spacer is hub specific, i.e. my spacer is made for E60 so it will fit all E60 regardless of size of wheels etc...

I have 4 spare spacers - 12mm in the boot of my car. You can try them out and see if you like the look of the wheels more flushed with the body... However, depending on the offset of your wheels, it may stick out further away from the body or not wide enough!

I think it will be quite hard to outsprint an Evo unless the guy is crap at driving and doesnt know how to drive it properly!

You should get a 530i instead of your current car
A modded EVO IV can hit 0-100 in low 5.x seconds - if it's a real EVO but not a MR with EVO kit. FYI.

It is getting much too hot now so I am planning to get the 3m Crystalline sometime this month.
this stuff is the best to block UV 99.9 and IR at 97%

for 5 seater $5380 all 9 windows with 5 years warranty
for 7 & 8 seater $6000 all windows too with 5 years warranty
1st car full price and the rest 10% off
if like to join put your name down.

i think that guy is definitely real crap ...... (young MK looked guy with gf sit aside....)
cos i can tell his shift skills from the engine sound.... loud and slow
pretty slow shift about 0.7-0.8 sec delay between each shift

but i do see his car from the mirror boosting up very fast.....

damn I miss the feel of turbo power from my 180SX....
