View Full Version : Max speed in 1st gear BERM3 08-01-2005, 04:53 PM What is M3s max speed in 1st gear??? ///M3Matt 08-01-2005, 07:31 PM somewhere around 25mph...... BLKM3 08-01-2005, 08:48 PM I think it's more like low 40's..... jsedlak 08-02-2005, 03:07 AM I'd hope it is higher than 25mph 'cause my 325i can hit like 20ish in first pretty easily. Beach_Bum 08-02-2005, 11:51 AM 38.9 mph @ 8000 RPM (with 19's) http://img310.imageshack.us/img310/8053/gearingchart0la.jpg egyptntree 08-03-2005, 10:41 AM probably a stupid question but why did the rpms get bumped down in 5th and 6th 97estorilM 08-03-2005, 12:17 PM What about on stock 18's??? MauiM3Mania 08-03-2005, 02:37 PM What about on stock 18's??? Factory 18" and 19" tire heights are virtually identical, so speed/rpm in each gear is the same. -Scott Antwerp 08-03-2005, 03:26 PM Now, is that real speed or Speedo Speed? paintball pete 08-05-2005, 01:36 AM do you guys redline your car when shiffting ? rommelrules 08-05-2005, 02:03 AM I redline my car whenever I'm in the mood. What's the point of redlining a car constantly? It's neither safe nor good for the engine in the long run... Do you always sprint whenever you have to run? DMZ 08-07-2005, 05:25 AM Most likely because the top speed limiter took over. probably a stupid question but why did the rpms get bumped down in 5th and 6th =BA= 08-07-2005, 11:25 AM probably a stupid question but why did the rpms get bumped down in 5th and 6th That's where it hits the factory 250 km/u limiter I believe (is more 260-265 ish on the speedo though, havent driven the E46 M3 but in others it does) |
