An m3 will still spank you pretty bad dude...
actually a 4.57 geared S2000 will stay with an M3 til about 70mph, and then the M3 slowly starts to pull.

hahahah i laugh at anyone who says that. That means uve raced one and lost to it that bad. 1/4 best they beat me was by 3 cars. Thats from 0-100. From a 45-100 roll they only are up by 1 car till 100.
both cars in stock form, a properly driven M3 will BURY an S2000 by about 8-9 car lengths by the end of the 1/4 mile. 45-100 it's gonna be at least 5 cars.

ok are you talking E36 M3 or E46 M3? cuz if it was E46, then you raced a poor driver.

by the way, what are the pro's and con's or 4.56 vs. 4.57's?

they seem too close to even make a difference. Do the 4.56's have the whine that the 4.57's have?
4.57 con = you can't get them anymore

4.56 pro = you can now get them.


any questions? lol

uh hondata? there is no hondata for the S2000.....

top speed of an ap2 is around 155 or so.

however, if you get 4.56 gears, that's going to drop to around 135mph or so.

Umm no guys u bring me a m3 and ill race it. My bro who is a low 12' second Evo Mr puts 5 cars on me from 45-100. And he rocks m3's. Im not talking out of 1 race. Ive raced m3's day after day. So u say 8-9 cars i laugh sooo hard at that and freeway 5 cars even worse. Motor Trend best time for an M3 is 13.3
Motor Trend best for 05 S2000 is 13.9
Difference is .6 and if u think .6 is 8-9 cars, then its your word i guess. .6 is around 3-4 cars and i lost by just that much. And it was a 01-02 M3 hard top Stick.0-100.

ok maybe i need to explain the laws of physics here. lol.

if two cars finish the 1/4 mile going roughly 100mph, but one car does 13.9 and one does 13.3, that's a .6 second difference.

at 100mph you are moving roughly 146 feet per second.

so, if you're .6 seconds apart, that means you're going to be *roughly* 88 feet apart. our car is what... 15 feet long? that means the other car is about 6 car lengths ahead of you.

in other words, an M3 (which can run 13 flat by the way) can put at LEAST 6 cars on a stock S2000 in the 1/4 mile.

if your brother has a low 12 second evo, and he can't put more than 5 cars on you, then your brother either DOESNT have a 12 second evo, or he for some reason can't drive to save his life when he races you.


so, the reality of it is, a properly driven stock M3 will put 6-9 cars on you in the 1/4 mile. in stock form. and on the freeway yes it's gonna be 4-5 cars. the M3 has better top end than the S2000, especially above 70mph.

Get u but u still wrong. U just talking while ive gone to a track HAve raced M3's and know for Sure 3 cars is around .5 .6. M3 does not run 13flat. And if u think my bros car is slow and cant drive i welcome anyone who thinks different to come and try. The owner himself said 3 cars. The owners brother himself from watching outside said around 3-4 cars. The difference From his time slip was .6 better then my time and dont bring up reaction cuz his was .1 better then mine. So u are just saying while i proved it. Other way i can prove it is, my friends srt-4 modded had a m3 first, second, and a bit of third, and he was spinning tires 1-2. If u really have a s2000, go out right now find a m3 stick hard top and run him from 0-100. If u have honestly say u lost by 8-9 cars then fine but id still think its your driving then, but if u can honestly say u lost by 8-9 cars then ill believe u. Im talking about things that ive done, not off the top of my head. There are people in the forums that back me up. So u go run a m3 and come back and tell me im right and that u were wrong.

Dont think im trying to start a fight, i like it when people talk about this things. I do it all day long. So i respect u in your comments and also no hard feelings. But i still think u wayyyy wrong.

And about the Evo it was off a roll. Off launch its a joke and by 1/4 its more like 10 cars. It is a low 12 second car And thats At palmdale sea level 2700Ft. U do the math people
