So the ordered M performance GT wing arrived. This is the same for M4 DTM edition. Unfortunately, the package does not come with any screws so I have to order a appropriate set locally.
The whole GT Wing is in one piece, only 4 screws for the legs. The item itself weight atmost 1 kg, which is extremely light and different from anything I have handled before. I can see why this item is so expensive and rare. Hopefully the Wing could be installed 2 weeks from now, the coming week will be the LSD. |

Just upgrade my Final Gear yesterday. Excellent stuff and I recommend anyone who are keen to improve stability and grip.
With the new Final Gear ratio, I can feel acceleration had improved, traction is much better. Even where the original open diff was not bad, the difference is still significant. Now virtually no worries to turn on sport+ for daily driving. |

I love what you've done to the car, it looks awesome! Very tastefully done, OEM+.
Are you going to try it out at a race track? I wonder how the wing will behave. BMW recommends pairing the M performance lip with the M performance rear spoiler, and I think you've added quite a bit more rear downforce with the wing. I don't know what the effect of that will be. Also did you get any errors from installing the seats? I had Sparco FIA seats in my E92 and had the airbag error, but I didn't have any weight sensors in the seats. Charles

I really dig those wheels and seats. I've got red GIAS' in my 240 and they really hold you in position. It looks like you've done just about everything that you can do...have you considered retrofitting a larger screen?

When my garage installed my seat, they had made some tweat on the "yellow connector" under the seat rail. So far so good no airbag lights. Weight sensors is not on my F30 either I am looking at possibilities of lorry my car to ZhuHai Racing circuit for track days. Should be really fun! |

Haha there is never everything. My turbo and maniford swap is pending. Also after a year or two, I am considering to get upgrade super pro bushing and hardrace multilink arms. another thing I am actively looking is cooling solution for oil temperature (oil cooler) and water temperature (intercooler) |

There are pretty generic oil coolers that you can pick up at any auto parts store and then mount either on your intercooler or to the left/right of it (foglight area) where the air will hit it. An intercooler upgrade would definitely keep your intake temps down but I don't know that it would really affect your water temperature?

Hey guys just ordered the goodies from hardrace Taiwan to bring the chassis components some upgrades.
Really looking forward to the stronger and stiffer chassis feel! |

Glad you are doing this...watching from the back row. Won't do as much as you but going to do some things. Just bought a Carbon Fiber rear wing for my 2017 330i. Will post some pics once I get it on. Keep up the good work.
