Red face Hi - This is Vijay

I have been wanting to connect with gearheads like me ... Am nuts about anything with an internal combustion engine and wheels in even numbers..

Looking to move back to bangalore from Atlanta in a couple of months

snaronikar,

The maxima makes 246 lb-ft of torque..Have not dynoed it ever.. It makes a lot more power than I can really use

easily gets to 55 mph on first gear if I floor it have hit 125 mph at max.. It happened when I was driving alongside a 540i who had a radar detector ..too expensive if I get caught at anywhere close to that.
