just a couple more things i'm planning ... yellow banana performance brakes & strut bar and will call it quits.
Good choice!Also love the sound of the performance intake. Here a shot of my yellow bananas.

QUOTE(GeekinE90 @ Nov 19 2010, 03:12 PM) Both front and rear. Rear does not plug and play onto the 325i (only fits 330i and E93's) due to handbrake size differences. Visit Obermaier off Jln Ipoh to customize the handbrake drum so that it fits. damn sui la bro .... ![]() Added on November 19, 2010, 3:20 pmbtw, care to share the damage done?

Result is less than what you'd expect for the $$$ spent, and it comes with its own headache after. Agree, that the better route is either a pure bred ///M car or 335i with a nice Vishnu tune.Check out my buddy's Stage 1 Procede, on an otherwise stock 335i AUTO! It also took out the M3 CSL on a roll and the E39 M5. Good value for $$$. Procede Stage 1 vs. Cayman S vs. Golf GTI APR Stage 3 This post has been edited by GeekinE90: Nov 19 2010, 06:27 PM |

Yeah, sometimes I don't really get the aftermarket mods. The modders just tack on this and that thinking they know better than the engineers in the car companies themselves who have millions of dollars worth of test equipment and years of expertise. BMW especially goes thru so much pain to ensure 50:50 weight distribution and the driver just spoils it by adding different wheel sizes, spoilers, lighter hood etc etc.
I understand if you maybe want cosmetic changes but what's the use if you have a 700hp beast which wheel spins on every engine speed and stalls at every start? But one man's poison is one man's meat. I'll keep my road car stock thank you. But if I have a track car one day, I'll be modding the hell out of it. Also, gimme a shout when anyone's coming to Germany! We do TT with beers. |

Don't get me wrong, it's what all of us wants to be.It's true that BMW themselves have so many variants, but I know people personally in the automotive industry and a lot of them cringe on what kind of junk people put on the cars. Maybe it's just hitting too close to home because they put so much effort in bringing the best drive possible. I can only speak for BMW though because I know how much R&D is done in bringing the best driving experience. But if you think you can bring out the best in your car, go for it. I like to see creativity in others and I hope you share your experiences too! P.S.: But I do know a guy who wasted 30k Euros on his M3 only to go back to stock because the mods are just killing the handling of the car on the track. Looks great on the dyno though Anyway, loved what you did with the BMW performance brakes. |

I personally think it's cool to have experience modding up a M3 to 700hp and learning the limits of each component in that journey.
