tradey Member 72 Member For: 15y 11m 21d Posted 19/12/12 08:52 AM Share Posted 19/12/12 08:52 AM My seat-of-the-pants-ometer puts the g6et ahead in straightline performance, especially the 80-120kph sprint, but handling is a different thing altogether, the 335i is leagues ahead. Makes me want to reprioritise my spending away from more power toward more stability (is this just a g6e thing?). My last car was a Legacy (Liberty in Aussie) B4 Blitzen, with it's factory Bilstein suspension it handled a sh!tload better than the g6e and the 335i is a sh!tload better than the blitzen.Hi I fitted bilsteins and h&r coils in my G6ET Which lowered it 30 mm and fitted the 6 spot brembos and territory rear brakes and gt rims With these upgrades I just love the thing some of my mates are into beamers and one has an ISF etc and think im a bogan , they dont know what hit when it goes by em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that badge snobbery or what! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly just off the brake and mash the accelerator. That could explain the slow times/speeds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is actually buying a G6E non turbo to tow his race car. Edited 21/12/12 07:49 AM by gsd112 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
