Must be nice doing 155km in a corner 
I hate those MK too, they bought a e46 and think they bought a ferrari cos their friend only got 94 civic or collora......
Glad u win Dav, i remember there is a honda odyssey wanna race with me abt a year ago, he was right up my ass and flashing his light ( but i was in the slow lane) but he forgot he is driving a van n i am driving a proper car
I was doing about 120km in a tight corner but definitely my car can go a little bit quicker.........but i saw him stop significately before the corner cos his car may turn upside down if he doesnt slow down People are bored these day and some idiots will race you even u let them pass 
How the e46 accelaration compared to your 525i?
my old 325i is abit faster on corners and with a 325ci it will be even fast than a stock 525i but with my mod we are about the same, it down to the driver in the end.
you should try out my stepwgn next time you caome back it dont feel like a van anymore with the arm bars now.
I would say that the body got about 70% of a stock e60 now after mod. It feels like a car not a 7 seater now.
1 thing I need to do to the stepwgn is 18" wheels, the 16" I got are crap right now. I will change them after next year when I have some more money.
BTW Keith, I have got the shop to order some more rotors and my real 1s too so when you come back them will be ready for you to install.
The rotors are very good and better than the stocks.
when I was doing 155km on the corner I slow down from 175km in about say 6 meters which is good but I know that brembo will do better but cost 35 time more in money than the 1s I have now.
there a guy call Billy and he is a mad driver he also mods all his cars and have 6 cars and a stepwgn too and out run all civics and level witha WRX.
he like to race alot and driff all the cars too. mad but cool

To E60 brothers in HK,
Hi everyone, i am about to purchase a used 2003 530i. Can anyone suggest where I should take the car for inspection before i make the purchase. Is there any particular problem area I should pay attention to?
Thanks for your help!
