LOL! They're still talking about you over there Sticky. You've got fans and also ... (surprise) haters.
The drama continues.
Cheers.

It's safer for them to hide over there than actually try to confront me where the moderation won't protect them.Quote:

i read some of that thread that got you banned.
m5board members are very sensitive but it looked like you were trying to get banned..
i mean your m3 is faster than any stock m5/m6 but going on a m5 forum and stepping on alot of pride doesnt do anything....
kinda like when e36 insurgents leaves the safety of the bf.c grotto in search of vindication *cough* cough*
They kept saying the E39 M5 was faster than the M3 based on Gustav's videos. Only for Gustav to finally admit at the end I was right.Quote:

I thought I was pretty nice all considering especially with how long I had been a member and how much I had contributed, they are way too sensitive. Who cares, M5board isn't an enthusiasts atmosphere.
yea, it feels like thats where the older M crowd hangs?
Not necessarily older, more like boring.Quote:

There you go, the M5board is totally a Dinan crowd. That is a great way to put it.Quote:

Then they sit around for hours talking about driving school until it is time to take their metamucil and go to bed.

great original post...
...and then came the GT-R lol
Freaking awesome awesome article Sticky... I wish I could thumbs up you, but I need to spread the love... Sorry. :(
Welp, that wasn't true - +1 given. Great article - very nice work. I am curious if anyone here has a DINAN or other stroker S65 - anyone? If so, does it have the same "low grunt" seemed to have (but doesn't seem evident in the curves)?
My pleasure and this was one I enjoyed writing.Quote:

Great article Sticky. I have no idea how I missed this in the past. Currently owning both an E46 M3 and E90 M3, I absolutely love both engines. I have vowed to never sell these two cars simply because they look to be the last of M's true philosophy and heritage implemented into their cars.
I absolutely love the S54B32 and the way it sings. Hence my choice in modifications are not to aim for the greatest power gains, but simply to augment what the master engineers of BMW M have done.
The S65B40 is an incredible power plant as well. When mated to the DCT, the thing just straight out pulls fairly hard to redline.
I am happy to own two automotive marvels.
Yep, I'm pretty awesome.Quote:
