I pulled pretty hard on an E36 last year at PIR. It had a few bolt-ons. So did my VE. The guy was surprised for sure.

LOL, I think me and you are the only ones who get that joke. I agree though all stock honda civic si TURBOZ will do work son.
On a more serious note though a sentra with a gt28 would crush an M3. People forget about our weight advantage. T25 and cams should do the job no problem.

This is when Power-to-Weight ratio comes in and how the person drives the car. Bmw's are heavy cars with powerful engines, and lots of torque. Sentra's are light and with a strong motor set-up you can probably take him.
But for a 20VE a huge Turbo will do the job.
e30 m3's are far from drag cars... hence my original request from the op.
333 HP is the S54 motor in the E46 M3, and has nothing to do with this thread.
He's talking about a USDM S50 (3.0L) or the S52 (3.2L) in an E30. Those make 240 HP stock.
The result is a car with about 220 - 230whp in a 2700 lb. car. An N/A SR20VE with common bolt-ons will not outrun an E30 or even an E36 M3 with bolt-ons.
I ran a NX2000 w/ a SR20DE-T (T28) car on 7 lbs. from a 40 - 50 MPH punch and put half a car on him every time. That's with a 3150 lbs. E36 M3 with a 3.15 differential gear. Put my same motor in a 2700 lb. E30 with a 3.64 rear end gear and you'll be considerably behind.
If this car has a Euro S50B30 or S50B32 you can forget beating it with a T25, T28, or an N/A engine. They make 300whp - 340whp N/A with bolt-ons and in an E30 that's solid 110+ MPH traps.

SB50B32. That be the one. E36 4-door M3 motor in an E30 2-door shell. Stripped. Modified - I'm not sure of the details.
The other one is a E30 with 328i E36/E46 motor, M3 throttles, cams and the other usual bolt ons.
A lot of nitruous. My brother does trhese swaps all the time, and his personal E30 with a 3.2 runs 12's all day with just cams, lightweight everything etc.
