Right now I have a question/problem, I used E36 M3 exhaust from mid section all the way back, shorten it and got it fitted, but I had to trim the left side of the diffuser to let the dual tips fit and frankly, I don't like it, you can't tell from 10 ft away but you can see the trimming up close, will 323ti diffuser clear the tips? and does anyone sell them in North America? | | | 07-22-2012, 10:15 PM | #36 | Member Join Date: Oct 2011 Location: GTA Posts: 34 | | | | 08-27-2012, 04:50 PM | #37 | Member Join Date: Oct 2011 Location: GTA Posts: 34 | Here it is doing some track action with the racing dynamic's temp finish and 235/40/17 Toyo RA1 car performed well but ABS wasn't engaging. | | | 08-29-2012, 05:15 AM | #38 | Member Join Date: Oct 2011 Location: GTA Posts: 34 | Here is some video from the track event: | | | 09-02-2012, 01:51 PM | #39 | Member Join Date: Sep 2011 Location: Toronto/Munich Posts: 83 | Hey Sam, Car is looking great, Rudy sent me the video from Mosport, he said the car was a blast to drive (My answer was I told you so ). Did you ever figure out your diffusor issue? I'll PM you on Max, see if I can help out. | | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
