[initial_g]

thats wip tyte son! love it!

[oi_oi_savaloy]

I think that'd look even better if you put different wheels on it - as much as I like the BBS's as they stand I think something else (BBS RS's maybe?). Just a thought. (and I know they cost the earth and it's not my money I'm spending!).

Why are you driving it round with the front tow eye still attached?

[ajbeamerboy]

loving the car mate keep it up. Does the rack make that much difference and how did you fit it was there much work in it.

[Cotty]

I love the pictures of the car all stickered up

Car looks so cool

car performed well at lydden hill.... (highlighted that i need an LSD) got ready for my second session, got out the pits got to the 3rd corner (sharp lefty) and my crank shaft sensor worked itself loose haha so i had to get towed off. all sorted now though

i still want the chassis stiffer... so iv got a few things in store for her

lookin into some eibach arb's, dont really need a bigger arb but do want it to be a bit stiffer and a little bit less roll without upseting the characteristics of the car i.e to much understeer/oversteer etc

i know that the eibachs are alot smaller than the H&R's.

eibach arbs work a treat for me, can't say I've tried any other aftermarket ones for comparison but they certainly beat stock!

[juniorGT]

iv got eibachs on.... no difference tbh, great for road use. not ideal for track work

[juniorGT]

a few pic's ;)

p.s keep ur eyes peeled on pbmw mag. me and my dad (red m3) will be getting a joint feature

[juniorGT]

camber/toe tabs arrived today cheers Dan.. idealy will be doing these when i find a slipper

so next mods...

UR front upper brace
UR front lower brace
LSD
fit camber/toe tabs (-2.5deg out back will be fine for road/track use)
whip the gearbox out and rebuild it as i have warn synchros in 2nd/3rd (pain in the ass on track lol)
and will be looking into a whiteline 24mm front ARB and further testing with the balance of the car so that means more seat time on track as im addicted... so a brands day will be next as its my local

GAZ coilies are future plans
