"Insert Bumper Here"

got a new piece to drive this time..
BLUIZE256 08-18-2008, 01:34 AM I am a definate for this one considering i missed today and the last one... I'm mad about today's though, because my car seemed to be running fine last night and about 15min. into the drive up to rockaway mall. . More overheating issues :(

better fix that asap because it'll over heat easily on the run im assuming.
do you know whats wrong with it? my first e30 used to overheat but aslong as i stayed driving it and didn't idle for a long time, it'd be fine.

WV Jim 08-18-2008, 04:22 PM I so wish I could make this run, but I'm going to be coming back up to Jersey a few weeks after this for the BMFeast.
For those of you that haven't made the Black Forest Run, you're missing out on a great drive and meeting some great people.

GimmieSumMo72 08-18-2008, 06:56 PM its a day that we all meet up check out each other's cars and then see what all the mods can actually do in action!
motorwerks 08-18-2008, 07:32 PM ok, never been 2 a run, what exactly is it... sorry guys, noobie here...
In short; It's one hell of a good time...
This particular run starts in NJ, and follows rte 80 across PA, and ends up in Black Forest (just outside of Lockhaven pa). It combines safe but spirited freeway driving with an equally spirited winding country road driving experience. Once at the Black forest inn everyone has a great opportunity to check out each others rides, meet and greet other members of the community, and finally get something to eat.
The driving is no less than thrilling, the members involved have proven to be first rate, and in the very least it will get you some action pics of your car, and most likely get it featured in a videa. E-FAMOUS:redspot

raceMpower95 08-19-2008, 12:03 PM Where does this run actually go? Does someone have a Google Map or something with it laid out? I am interested in coming out for it so I'm curious. Also, how far does this whole thing take place from the Philly Area, I see all the Jersey guys comin out, so it cant be that far, right? Can the whole thing be done on one tank of gas?
GimmieSumMo72 08-19-2008, 12:13 PM no... not one tank of gas... maybe about 2 - 2.5 tanks. its about 250 miles each way from edison, nj.
duce110 08-19-2008, 12:47 PM no... not one tank of gas... maybe about 2 - 2.5 tanks. its about 250 miles each way from edison, nj.
:eek:... 2 tanks, holy mother, that would cost me about 120... :(
GimmieSumMo72 08-19-2008, 01:00 PM its not the distance that's going to eat up your gas! its the fun you're going to have...
mind you i was driving a 4.4 v8...

weren't you supposed to put that pic in your sig?
you gave me that idea!
duce110 08-19-2008, 01:31 PM how fast do u guys really go... i haven't pushed my car to that limit but in other cars i have and the engine starts to shut down after a certain speed, doesn't that happen in these cars also...
GimmieSumMo72 08-19-2008, 01:33 PM dood! take a look at the sig! thats why we burn the gas!
duce110 08-19-2008, 01:42 PM ok i see how fast he's goin homie, ur tellin me that he's doin 125 the whole way... im also askin if bimmer engines start to shut off after a certain speed... i don't have any mods...
GimmieSumMo72 08-19-2008, 01:50 PM we don't go that fast the whole way...
my 7 is bone stock, did 128 for a short while and the car limited. not shut off.
shutting off at that speed would be dangerous!
DRIFTM42CANO 08-19-2008, 01:56 PM Gas mwhahahaha i PWN at gas consumption filled her only once and with 4 ppl in the car
fuck that next time im only takin one person
duce110 08-19-2008, 01:56 PM ok well my apologies, limited... ok i guess i should make this trip...
ublemaschine 08-19-2008, 03:41 PM Couldn't go Sunday. Had some racing to do. I will probably be availible for this run though. I'll see if i can get some other locals in on this too.
thrilos5 08-19-2008, 04:20 PM I should be able to make it
WV Jim 08-19-2008, 04:24 PM You know, the funny thing is that Mo was still in the parking lot at the Rockaway mall when he hit 128 mph.
:)
BLUIZE256 08-19-2008, 05:07 PM i really hope my car is intact for this..
I'm def. not tryin to miss out on this again because BMW couldnt figure out how to build a proper cooling system. .

Basically, it's one straight road.............
Route 80 West to Lock Haven PA ( 2 hour drive )
Route 120 past Lock Haven U ( 1 hour of mountain roads )
Stop at Black Forest Inn - food Etc...........

The list is growing at a nice pace. Hopefully, we get a chance to talk to the guys from the Liberty state park meet at the end of the month.
Plus, the BFE in October should have a ton of Bimmer enthusiasts.
We could have over 100 + cars on the BFR in October :redspot

is the guy to harass it seems. He was the one from here that did all of the posting in the june thread. I guess we'll all have to pm him until he agrees they'll come:evil2
Black E46 sedan 08-22-2008, 10:40 PM They dont shut off. I believe most of them are limited to 128mph. I know for the E46 series the speedometers are off by 7%. When I hit the governer (128), my speedometer reads about 137 mph.
The engine does not shut off. When you hit the limiter it just like letting off the gas. Even though I hit 128 pedal to the floor, the throttle will let off, then accelerate to 128, let off, 128, let off...the whole time the pedal is too the floor.
I know other bmws have different limits also. M3-155, zhp-155, not sure what the others are

My car is getting better and better each day. :)
Black E46 sedan 08-24-2008, 07:15 PM My service engine soon light is on, I need to get my new exhaust on, I have a stupid looking metal grill in my front bumper because I hit a raccoon and it was cheap to put in but o well haha
conway 08-24-2008, 08:52 PM Man, I may have to come, it's 1hr30min to rockaway mall, how long is the drive from there?
sbblowz 08-24-2008, 08:54 PM its like 3 hours id say. if u want u can meet up at my house and we can cruise together to rockaway mall.
DRIFTM42CANO 08-24-2008, 09:30 PM yea its close to 4 hours with gas stops and all make sure u have a/c
i did it without a/c i was exhausted afterwards
sbblowz 08-24-2008, 09:43 PM crap i dont have A/C :-(. but mid september weather should be good.
Black E46 sedan 08-24-2008, 09:47 PM Just crack the windows. It shouldnt be that hot anyway.
Black E46 sedan 08-24-2008, 09:57 PM So are you in conway? I wanna add another name to the list. :D
GimmieSumMo72 08-24-2008, 09:58 PM if you have an E36 i would suggest not going with the A/C on... we don't want any headgasket issues!!!
:lol
DRIFTM42CANO 08-24-2008, 10:03 PM Just crack the windows. It shouldnt be that hot anyway.
ooooh trust me it helps only a little bit hahaha
last time it was literally 100 out and goin that fast DIDNT HELP!!! lol
Black E46 sedan 08-24-2008, 10:09 PM Haha Ive been driving with no ac all summer. ac works fine but I just like to drop the windows..
sd203 08-24-2008, 10:11 PM Is Conway going to join us ?
The car is running great, but found out something i didn't expect.
If I turn the A/C on - it seems to disable the Dinan transmission software somehow.
I notice the tranny shift pattern in SPORT mode doesn't rev as high with the air blowing.
Probably a precautionary safeguard built into the software.
Met some cool dudes at the BMW dealership today.
They're buying a new M3, and will be joining us on the run.
But they might bring a Mercedes, if they can't get the M3 they want, at the price they want.
Speaking of the new M3
CPO ( Certified Pre Owned ) looks to be the way to go
I want one bad !!
Steve
GimmieSumMo72 08-24-2008, 10:32 PM my ear is still numb from the last time!!!
as for the A/C... I ran with my heater on 85 the whole time... the 7 ran noticeably cooler. the needle was half way between the second hash and dead center.
sd203 08-24-2008, 10:38 PM my ear is still numb from the last time!!!
I wouldn't advise running with the AC on.
The price of gas + AC will take a toll on the wallet :eek:
I actually want to have some money on arrival to the Black Forest Inn
Instead of giving it all to exxon before we get there :lol
Anyone have a laser jammer by the way ? :confused

motorwerks 08-24-2008, 10:46 PM My service engine soon light is on, I need to get my new exhaust on, I have a stupid looking metal grill in my front bumper because I hit a raccoon and it was cheap to put in but o well haha
Like I mentioned in the PA thread, I went to the June run with no rear bumper at all. At least you'll have something in there :rofl
GimmieSumMo72 08-24-2008, 10:47 PM Anyone have a laser jammer by the way ?
How about police scanner or cb radio...anyone equipped?
Those are really good questions!
seeyalaterrr 08-24-2008, 11:37 PM I wouldn't advise running with the AC on.
The price of gas + AC will take a toll on the wallet :eek:
I actually want to have some money on arrival to the Black Forest Inn
Instead of giving it all to exxon before we get there :lol
Anyone have a laser jammer by the way ? :confused
Just checking :devillook
If your driving that fast on the highway you get better mpg with the ac on then the windows open.
Black E46 sedan 08-25-2008, 12:16 AM If your driving that fast on the highway you get better mpg with the ac on then the windows open.
Yep. Windows up with no ac. Occasionally drop the window a bit for some airflow.
Care to join us?
conway 08-25-2008, 02:48 AM I have a lasser jammer :shifty, i think i'm pretty much sold. :) gas is gonna suck though.

Looking forward to Sept. 14th

Mark850 08-25-2008, 08:01 PM Where does this run actually go? Does someone have a Google Map or something with it laid out? I am interested in coming out for it so I'm curious. Also, how far does this whole thing take place from the Philly Area, I see all the Jersey guys comin out, so it cant be that far, right? Can the whole thing be done on one tank of gas?Hey Dave , I'll tell ya what..You can go for free if you shoot video and take pics when we stop..I'll pay for your fuel if you do so ..Let me tell everyone here ,Dave IS AWESOME WITH A CAMERA!!!! He shot my car.. http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1019376 And he's just as good with video.. If we all pitch in say $10.00 It'll be worth it..He can do posters of our cars also if needed.. If nobody wants to pitch in some cash for Dave , like I said I'll pay for his trip...Oh and BTW here I am Steve..Just got in from Vacation... I lost my forward radar detector in the 850..But I did pick up a MIRT and have that onboard..
Black E46 sedan 08-25-2008, 08:11 PM Nice, I'll pitch in some $ for Dave. I want to see some good pics and video of the run and some of my car.

u got my approval frankly i think the event would make a bigger impact
sd203 08-25-2008, 11:45 PM While I initially wanted the Black Forest Run to be a Euro car rally
I've come to realize that the run is about the car enthusiasts, as much as it is the car.
I've run with a Subaru wrx, Honda S2000 , a Mitsubishi Evo, as well as an NSX
Solid cars in their own right.
Who am I to judge a person because of the car they drive ?
If it's a Sports car ( And not a Tonka toy )
It's fine with me.
Of course, we may have members who disagree, and want the Black Forest Run to remain a Euro Sports car event.
If you feel that way, let me know why you think it should stay Euro.

DRIFTM42CANO 08-25-2008, 11:52 PM i was just thinkin about tru enthusiasts in mind
no raspy exhaust heaps with tincans at the muffler and bulgy hideous bodykit and 5 foot wings allowed
im just sayin for there to be more enthusiast cars like ranges from evos to sti to supras or s2ks or nsx..real cars.
idk what everyone else decides

The Majority of cars will be BMW & Porsche anyway
So I don't think it will be a big deal.
Frankly, we're all doing the run to have a good time.
Just as long as the Fart cans and 5 foot wings stay in the garage. :rolleyes
DRIFTM42CANO 08-26-2008, 12:21 AM hey steve which BFR is this like the 4th or 5th?
raceMpower95 08-26-2008, 04:03 AM Hey guys. After giving it some thought, I came up with the following plan. If everyone can handle tossing in 5-10 bucks (or more if you're feeling generous), Steve and I will do the following. I will shoot pictures all day, edit the majority of them, and post up a thread for all to enjoy. Mind you, these will all be professional quality shots, not just snapshots. I will also provide edited high-res versions of any of the shots to those who ask. I will also take requests for specific shots of peoples' cars. Furthermore, Steve will film the event with his professional quality video camera and we will edit together a well-made video for everyone to enjoy. We will post it on YouTube and let everyone see/share it. Steve will also do a segment on the run in his full-length DVD due out sometime this year. Copies of the full DVD will be available upon completion and release.
If this sounds acceptable, then I look forward to seeing you guys there. Obviously, this is all contingent on how much we can get together. Dont get me wrong, we both love hanging out with everyone and seeing all the cars the day of, but it is very tedious and takes a lot of time/work to edit all the photos and videos to the quality that we strive for, so make it worth our while! Haha.
No worries though, I know everyone is pumped about this run, and it should be a great time. I'm looking forward to it.

Dave,
We need to promote this run beyond the BMW forums, and get the other Euro cars involved.
I will reach out, and start contacting people personally as well.
I'd like to get the New York Motor club and Alex Roy involved.
I will send an email with a call later today to try and confirm.
The NYC guys are usually big on this, and should be with us.

Bsaint 08-27-2008, 12:43 PM I really wish we could find a final starting meeting spot other then the side of the road, I could get a bunch of sick cars to come. They are not sure where or what time to meet up because people are meeting up at different locations.
Also it is kind of hard to get some artistic shots while on the side of a highway with cars going by. If we can figure something out that would be great.

Steve,
I called Mark850i
He's going to get in touch with dave, to coordinate the PA meeting point.
The NY/NJ crew are meeting at the Rockaway MAll at 7 AM
We expect to join you in PA near the 476 - 80 interchange, at 8:15 AM
There are plenty of places in the Poconos to stop for Pics and filming.
You, Dave and Mark are the point men for the Philly crew.
The rest of the PA members are meeting us near Williamsport - Lock Haven near the university at 9:15 AM ( Another great place for pics and filming )

I highly recommend it :D
I'm not sure about Dinan installers near you, but i'm sure there has to be one reasonably close.
sd203 08-27-2008, 03:20 PM In short; It's one hell of a good time...
This particular run starts in NJ, and follows rte 80 across PA, and ends up in Black Forest (just outside of Lockhaven pa). It combines safe but spirited freeway driving with an equally spirited winding country road driving experience. Once at the Black forest inn everyone has a great opportunity to check out each others rides, meet and greet other members of the community, and finally get something to eat.
The driving is no less than thrilling, the members involved have proven to be first rate, and in the very least it will get you some action pics of your car, and most likely get it featured in a videa. E-FAMOUS:redspot

at 7 AM
Steve :)
Black E46 sedan 08-27-2008, 07:53 PM Are you going to get the DINAN chip before the meet ?
I highly recommend it :D
I'm not sure about Dinan installers near you, but i'm sure there has to be one reasonably close.
Closest is in Allentown, about 2-3 hours away. I'm really not sure what I wanna do though.
sbblowz 08-27-2008, 08:28 PM can i get ur number steve?
sd203 08-27-2008, 09:49 PM Closest is in Allentown, about 2-3 hours away. I'm really not sure what I wanna do though.
Know what I think is in order ?
ROAD TRIP :D
Will they put the chip in for you this Saturday ?
We'll get the crew together, and head to Allentown.
We'll do a Pocono run :redspot
sd203 08-27-2008, 09:51 PM Here's another idea........................
How far are you from State College ?
There is a BMW dealership there
Can they put the chip in for you ?
They have to be authorized from Dinan to do it, however.
just a thought

mills84 08-27-2008, 10:15 PM What all is entailed in "putting in" the chip? I dont see why I couldnt do it for you... If I cant, I work with about 5,000 electronics guys who can.

sd203 08-27-2008, 10:41 PM Nowadays they download the software right at the dealer
You bring the car in, they hook it up to the computer.............and about 10 minutes later..................you're good to go.
Quick software install.
At least, that's what they told me when they did my car.
I'm not sure if Dinan sends an actual " chip " to the installer.
Of course, if they do..........
ask Mills84 to do it for you,
We'll buy Mills84 a Shot & beer when we get to Black Forest.

Mark,
Thanks for the info.
It's always good to know where these Mod guys are
You never know :devillook
A few members might need to stop by :D
Black E46 sedan 08-27-2008, 10:57 PM Thanks for all the help guys. I checked on DINAN's website and most of the dealers are in the Allentown or Philly area. I'm not sure if I'm gonna get it chipped yet though. Decisions, decisions...that $ will be going towards other mods if I don't chip it though.
mills84 08-27-2008, 11:11 PM I watched my mechanic do my 2 EML's and my DME..He chipped all 3 of them in 10 minutes tops!!!!
I'm a network & hardware guy. But I can socket/soldier/de-soldier boards so "chipping" is something I can do. I work at an electronics depot for the army so if someone didnt trust my work theres plenty of engineers here to do the work for anyone if someone wants it.

but if u want to get it done my guy can do it for you easily
Black E46 sedan 08-27-2008, 11:57 PM I'm not getting it chipped yet. I made up my mind its getting a different exhaust put on probably next weekend. Then from there I may still chip it.
sd203 08-28-2008, 07:45 AM I'm not getting it chipped yet. I made up my mind its getting a different exhaust put on probably next weekend. Then from there I may still chip it.
Suggestions on exhaust -
Hamann
Eisenmann
Hartge
Dinan + chip
It will cost you a lot of $ for a good quality exhaust. :D
Do it man !! :redspot
Then chip it :alright

Black E46 sedan 08-28-2008, 10:38 PM I'm planning on finding a used muffler and run dual 2.5'' stainless piping with no resonators. Searching the classefieds...
or
I do have two glasspacks and two AA exhaust tips sitting in the garage. Anyone ever hear glasspacks on an E46? I don't want it too loud. Some guys on E46fanatics love it and others say don't do it. I wish I could hear this setup in person. If I do this it will also be the dual 2.5'' stainless piping with an H-pipe and no resonators.
OR........should I just weld the two AA 76mm exhaust tips onto my borla muffler. The only reason I dont like my borla muffler is that it has a single 4'' exhaust tip. With just doing this, I will have enough to chip it right away. :devillook

Black E46 sedan 08-29-2008, 11:27 AM 1. Find a used muffler (good quality) and run dual 2.5'' stainless piping with no resonators.

2. I do have two glasspacks and two Active Autowerke 76mm exhaust tips sitting in the garage. If I do this it will also be the dual 2.5'' stainless piping with an H-pipe and no resonators.

I have little notes that I have ready to tape to BMW door handles if I don't get to talk to the drivers. Last night I saw a white 135i and the driver looked young. Later I saw his car in the parking lot so I taped this note to his door handle.

I listen to her. She just doe's not want to get up really early lol. But I'm up everyday at 6am, I figure why not just go. I'm gonna be up any way and I end up waking her up and she'll be up all day untill it's time to go to sleep. But I'm gonna stick behind the pack so I can get to know the roads.
