Danke, mal schauen wenn ich wieder oben bin, hab nie feste Termine
it's been a while since I posted here, there were some updates in the last couple of months first I tried to fit these into my car, some front spring strut tower reinforcements of the 3.2l M3, but I need some longer knurling bolts for the guide supports :-/
I also had the stock ECU remapped (Fuel / Air ratio, ignition etc, raised rev limiter to ~7000 RPM) and the throttle body has been adjusted, no numbers yet. then I fitted new brakes while replacing the stock vented 286mm rotors with 300mm rotors of the 3.0 Z3 Roadster, will keep them until I have to replace the pads and/or rotors, then I'll get some better parts in the same dimensions
due to a Track Day of the German "M-Forum" I gutted out the rear of the car what saved me ~43 kg, could've been more but I didn't want to part it out completely (meanwhile the spare tire found its way back under the car again for better weight distribution and underbody aero) replaced the Z3 rear reinforcement plates with a custom built steel tower strut, painted in Imola Red II, it's a 1:1 Wiechers knock off and only cost me 10 € without the paint.
last but not least the last update for entertaining purposes xD a friend from Tampa / Florida sent me the CruiseCam short bar mount for the seat headrests on which I put my FullHD Sony Camcorder, remote controlled so I can start and stop recording whenever I want without stopping the car, I also can take pictures and zoom in and out.
to get an idea of how the results of recording my driving looks like you can watch these videos Part 1 shows me giving an E46 M3 convertible a really hard time (also managed to overtake it but it's the driver's fault lol)
