it has been covered before and I'll say it again, a good pump gas chip such as GIAC or VAST plus turbo back and it's damn close. I can tell you that from a stop light the M stands no chance. From personal experience I raced an M3 with my old 00 S4 with turbo back (test pipes) and a GIAC chip and I started to pull at the end of third gear and on. BUT, this e46 M3 was not stock...exhaust for a fact and the rest of the mods unkown since the guy would not roll down his heavily tinted windows and talk to me.[:D]

i ran a modded m-tec m3 from a roll and a dig..same outcome he saw my awe license plate frame..
my mods are an abt chip, 710n's, and a uuc vm1 exhaust

ive never raced one before but ive been witness to a few of them.
bart raced tonngi in his e46 m3 and they were dead even says bart.
if you know anything about barts car its puts down amazing numbers for a stage 2+ car.
he raced another one that was cammed and tuned if i remember correctly and got a few lengths on it. im pretty sure they dont stand a chance. bart if you read this add some knowledge.

When I was stock I actually kept up pretty well with m3s, although eventually they would pull on me. So though they would end up a little bit quicker, I definitely wouldn't say that an m3 would KILL an s4 stock vs stock.

I'm basically stock tiptronic with just a darintake and i raced one from a roll and i got him by a car up untill about 130 and then we stopped because he wasn't gaining at all, but i think it was smg not six speed.

you will destroy him smg sucks all though bmw made it a little better after 03 but it doesn't matter still sucks and convertible haahahahhaha add at least 200pounds anyway he is still a vagina lol so he won't have the honor to see your tail lights getting smaller.

yeah but we are talking about justin here. His car, although stage III, somehow manages to make less power than a stock hyundai.
ive never raced one before but ive been witness to a few of them.
bart raced tonngi in his e46 m3 and they were dead even says bart.

Hey thanks frimmel. Yeah, I raced tonngi and we were dead even every single time we did a pull. Off the line though, I couldn't see him anymore (for obvious reasons, thanks quattro!). I'm actually just stage 2, so I don't have downpipes yet (just the rear cat delete, which isn't much).
I raced tonngi's friend though (Mike) in his e46 m3 with headers and full straight pipes as well as a few supporting mods and I pulled 2+ cars on him. Everytime I raced tonngi though, I was heatsoaked (errr). When I raced Mike's M3, I just turned the car on and warmed it up. I solved that problem though, with a front mount [up]
Frimmel do you remember when we were coming back from that bbq that Val set up, I raced that other kids M3 (the dark blue one)? I had about 2 lenghts on him as well.
So yeah..
stock m3 vs stock s4 = m3
modded m3 vs chipped s4 = either dead even, or really close.
my s4 vs modded m3 = [up]

I raced a Z4 M Coupe a couple time and beat it everytime on the strip. Those are lighter than E46 M3's, but E46 should be easier (I was stage 2...but my cars a freak). Stage 2 + should pull on E46 M3's...not much but you'll pull.

You're just spouting shit out of your ass and have NO idea what your'e talking about. I've owned TWO M3's, the SMG tranny have been exactly the same since 02. A stock E46 M3 would lay the biggest hurting on an stock S4, they run 12's stock with a (read GREAT) driver. As i've said before, and i'm not going to go thread hunting so don't ask there is a guy in bimmerforums who went 12.6@109 with a stock tire/weight/everything M3 on a cold day in NJ. He posted a video, and he was a vetern member. He was a professional drag racer for a living, so yes, he can drive. But shows the car has it in it. No even stage 2 S4 has a chance against an E46 M3, sorry. As much as I love these cars, and love owning one facts are facts. Some of you guys raced people who blow at driving, plain and simple.

An M3 is a beautiful and fast machine...but no match for a 2+ S4. I don't care if you owned 10 M3's in the past. 350hp and 400trq from a stop light and it's game over! The driver of the M3 might think he left it in reverse![drive]

You are completely loaded with shit. Come on...I mean obviously a BMW fanboy at heart. I've beaten an E46 M3 before downpipes on pump gas. That makes me stage 2...and faster than a E46 M3. What now? I cheated? lol
I remember hearing about that 12.6 pass and iirc he was on slicks. But it's just a glory run, you don't see anybody repeating those results consistently. Likewise, I'd like to see what a professional drag racer can do with a Stage 2 S4 in the 1/4. 12.6-12.5 is more than possible on stock turbos.

at the drag strip tonight i talked to a guy with a e46 smg with cf hood, header, didn't quite hear what he said for exhaust, but pretty sure he had something other than oem as well as a few other thing,he said that his best was a 14.5. probably a shitty driver, but that is the time he gave me. i
i raced an e46 when i was just chipped and he just barley pulled on ever so slightly. but i was right there with him the whole time. the old guy wouldn't even make eye contact with me, much less talk.
I would have thought the E46 wouldnt be as much of a problem as they are for a chipped S4. That's one of 2 cars i would consider selling my S4 for, the other is a 911.

Too bad the MOST EVER recorded was 263whp for a cammed, full bolt-on E36 M3.....280whp is not possible in and E36....not at all. Most Cammed E36 M3's make about 240-250whp with full bolt-on's.

you are right stock vs stock m3 wins by alot (b5),now m3 vs stg2 might be close but a stg3 will destroy a stock m3 , now I thought I read somewhere that smg got tweeked in 03 but if that's not true then ok.. I'm not going to look around for that article either, but again if that's true smg still sucks .

I have to agree on this. My of my friends have M3's and my old S2 S4 could only pull on 100 octane map. On 91 I would loose, but then again I had a mild APR chip.

I don't want to toot my own horn here, but I raced a bone stock 335i over the summer and walked him much harder than the M3. Told him afterwards once he gets a chip he'll be walking me...maybe. [:D]

The #1 reason I bought the B5 S4 was for AWD. I know there's a 335XI AWD but i'm not a fan of BMW's X-Drive...I was really temped...until I saw the price tag. There really isn't anything out there that can replace this bitch.
AWD, turbo, four doors, 6 cylinders and bolt on mod friendly. Any other choice? Nope. B5 S4. [:)]

That makes no sense. No, we're comparing a B5 S4 to a E46 M3. Our cars came from the factory with boost. That's why it's faster...is your point saying that you should add a turbo to the inline-6 to make things fairer? Then how bout we upgrade our little K03s? It'll go back and forth but that's not the point.
The point is Stage 2/+ S4 > E46 M3. Not modified to hell, single turbo aftermarket M3 [rolleyes]

Heres a question why the fuck is the standard for turbo e46's the gt35. That thing is small, i mean sure it's a good turbo to add some pep, but a GT4202r would be a much better monster for the e46.
Umm yeah for a basically track only e46 M3. The gt35r flows MORE the enough air to add more then just pep. Its one of the best ALL AROUND turbos for the car. There easy to get, reliable and make for a very good all around fast car.

all this is irrelevent. I used to own an e46 m3 before I sold it for the bitch s4 i have now.. now with a chip the s4 i think is in competition with a m3..e46...its drivers game and a matter of how healthy each car is, shoot, actual m3's? they were all over the place man, they arent all created equal, it s aknown fact some are stronger than tohers stock..some 280 some 296 at wheels some less
smae with s4..
But this is irrelevent because I think its close between chiped ko3 s4 and m3..but irrelevent because who gives ahit a shit, about the ko3 s4....
This car was meant for ko4's or more..now in this form it bats the shitt out of the m3...fuk the m3 and all its pretentious american owners, theyre mostly dickheadss that circlejerkk each other on forums and know many useless facts, and are fools that think whatver they pay more for is better..
they are some of the bes t customers on earth...
the m3 is wonderful, but not most its owners in us...the s4 with ko4 or more will rape little m3, m3 with superhcarger is also a joke
makes high number at peak , but its bullshitt numbers,..unles s its some craxy sshit like a bhs stage 2 or some ridiculous 20 thousand dollar setup..lol, even then, wihtout slicks..they make no threat in 1st and second gear

Mike sucks at driving...and his headers got loose from the head which is why you killed him. But I dont care, you beat him. Im your witness.
But you cant beat me... And stop lying about being heatsoaked. thats like the excuse besides boost leak....
And of course bart will say something. BUT frimmel was there. He knows that it was cool that night. and it was not humid or even hot enough to get you heatsoaked..

HPF's M3 ran 11.66 at 129. A Customer car ran 11.3 at 133.
In terms of looks,i have to be honest, the m3 looks better then the s4 from the factory. In terms of pure performance, prolly the S4 is the better canidate. Lets be honest, theres not many cars out there that can run high 11s and have the reliabilty of ko4s and stage 3 setup.

The E46 M3 has to be one of the most overrated cars out there. I think it might have something to do with the way they're driven, though. To have a chance of seeing the advertised peak HP, you really gotta rev the piss out of that motor and shift just before the rev limiter. A lot of these young punks that drive them don't realize this and they don't pay attention to where they shift. It can make a huge difference.
I used to smoke these all the time in my old stage II Cactus Green S4. It wasn't even close.
I even raced an E46 M3 in my $1K Dodge Spirit a year or two ago and had him until we started to hit Autobahn-like speeds. My best trap ever in it was a 103-104. Here's the video:
http://www.titsup-racing.com/video/spirit_rt/spirit_vs_e46m3.wmv
On most of those runs, the M3 did not start pulling until 120-130.

When I was stock with 3.91 gears, I pulled on 3 Stage 2+ S4's, so results may vary. [up] At Sac, I also ran a 12.89 at 108 in the LEFT LANE. [:D]

My best run in the Spirit was a 13.0. That was with a couple bolt ons and a blown headgasket. So yeah, the Spirit and E46 M3 are pretty close in performance. A driver's race. [:D]

how much does smg vs 6spd matter? ive been waiting to race this kid at school(who is a giant vagina and does not surprise me at all) who has the smg and convertible option. i say that puts him at a severe disadvantage
you both are giant inflamed vaginas... uhh yeah a healthy s4 at stage 2 should be able to get one. esp one with the smg.

lol so much hate in these thread. I will admit to the following
the Audi S4 is fast. very very fast. and can be very fast with very little. so on the highway or on the quarter mile they are fast.
the M3 overrated? overrated cause people who race them think they are the fastest thing on the highway.thats not what they are even meant for. I want to resurrect this thread so people who are so narrow minded can possibly learn a thing or two.
Im not gonna deny the M3 isnt the fastest thing nor is it a slouch.
The s4 and the m3 were made for different purposes.
S4 : comfy car meant to go fast with its biturbo engine.
m3: a little harsh stock ride and meant to handle on a road course/ auto x /etc but something I would never say is "lets take it to the track" crap.
each car has its own pros and cons and when people start noticing those and giving respect where respect is deserved is when people will understand real motorsports.
on a side note, its like people comparing the 911 Turbo to a C6 Z06. the C6 is faster, handles better and is cheaper yet peopel still hate. but car for car (both meant to do almsot the same thing) Z06 wins.
yo tonggi this thread is OLD lol

Can i still leave him to see my cars ass?
M3 stock 6speed Convertible VS Stage 2 TIP S4
whacha think
you should win out of a roll and out of a dig, I am stg 3 TIP and I have beat up m3's real easy (with bolt on on the M3's) , but I would not mind doing a run on a turbo or S/C M3

BBK will not save you from an M3 on a road course. you need to jack up the body and put a whole new chassis under the S to turn and stop like an M3. and if the M3 has had any suspension work whatsoever, it will be embarrasing. no doubt you have a much faster car though[up]

Too bad the MOST EVER recorded was 263whp for a cammed, full bolt-on E36 M3.....280whp is not possible in and E36....not at all. Most Cammed E36 M3's make about 240-250whp with full bolt-on's.
do you smoke crack maybe for a 3.0 but a 3.2 e36 with a euro intake manifold porsche maf,long tubes,uuc exhuast and sun cams put down 310 whp on a mustang dyno
when i was stage 2 + pulling 4.3 fats times i took a dinan stage 2 e46 that had a racing hart header and sun cams witha decked head by 2-3 car lengths revhard was there it was during woodward dream cruise

You are correct. an M3 with the perfect alignment settings and coilovers even cup kit, game over. Even E36 M3s can walk Stage 3 S4s on the track. But of course people will come here syaing that guy can't drive blah blah blah. People with S4s that track. and there arne't man are serious and mean business so im sure they know what they are doing.
But quarter mile and high way pulls. a healthy Stage 2+ S4 will always pull on an M3 (I admit the truth unlike some here. [;)] )

considering 70% of the S4's weight is in the front and the entire engine is ahead of the middle of the front wheels, i'm really not surprised the M3 with its 50/50 weight distribution is faster on a track.

70%? that much in the front? can't be? E46 m3 is not 50/50 btw i believe its like 55/45 or something close there but not perfectly 50/50

I raced an 05 with full exhaust, some chip, and an intake and it was pretty much a walk in the park. The m3 was making a lot of noise but I could see it in all 3 mirrors by the middle of 3rd gear. started at 35mph roll each time.
My brother owned a S4 and we would race quite often S4 6speed vs. E46 M3 6speed and stock to stock the M would pull the S4. We did a full stage 2 kit to the S4 and the M stayed stock, lol was not even a race. I use to have to put him back in his place with the Supra after this happened. With that being said I am in the market for a S4 to daily, i love the way the Audi drives.
