upgrades for a fastroad / part time track car..

[RichIS]

right going to be givin the old girl a bit of a overhaul over the next few weeks/months ready for when i find a m52 engine .. all ready changed all the rear beam buses and trailing arm bushes for genuine bmw ones

so next thing i was thinking was e46 m3 cab rear mounts ? think these are the ones that are classed as a upgrade ? also the m3 wishebone bushes which ones to go for the std bmw m3 ones or the polybush version?

any thing else worth changing while im at it and feeling flush lol ?

Just think of it like this, Safety, Brakes, Suspension, Engine which IMO is the order they should looked at too.

How low is your car? some adjustable toe and camber might be nice at the rear, as well as some good springs, as for brakes stainless steel brake lines new fluids and pads should surfice.

What about a service, or fluid service? Diff oil? gearbox oil? if you haven't allready got one LSD?

Andif you can live withought it, ditch it to save weight.

the cars lowered about 40-50mm id say not 100% sure tho, whats involved in adjustable toe and camber just diffrent bushes ? cars already fitted with some unknown spec billies and weitec springs , ac-schnitzer arbs,

brakes are brembo discs all round with mintex 1155 i think pads got the braided lines to go on

just done a full service about 1k ago oil was changed in the box 2k ago fresh oil in the lsd when it was fitted 500 miles ago

got a set of bucket mounts but just trying to find a set of seats that are useable every day but still hold you in was thinking along the lines of the newer shape civic type r seat or any seat out of a newer 3dr hot hatch
