Beautiful progress, and that is the first time I have loved a 328i exhaust note. The full super sprint is wicked!

Nice work!

Thanks

Yeah the 328i's exhaust note isn't really that pleasing

The Supersprint has a nice subtle tone, can't wait till it breaks in.

You have got a BOSS set up on your car. Looks too good! Also, is that an f80 CF strut bar? If yes, did it fit fine.. Thanks

Anton_RU · 01-20-2016, 12:58 PM

Wow, the car looks fantastic! Do you mind telling what did you do with the Performance brakes? I believe you painted the calipers, right? Did you do anything to the brake discs? Because they look much better then the standard M Performance brake discs.
But seriously, that's the best looking f30 I have even seen!

Mbeans · 01-22-2016, 12:58 PM

Nice!

Victorious · 02-07-2016, 08:42 PM

talk about inspiration

peikko · 02-29-2016, 11:58 AM

Is there anything of the original car left?!

Some really nice mods there but I couldn't live with 20" alloys on our crappy roads, it would be like driving with a jackhammer under your seat!!!!

Not much haha

Everything has been changed apart from the major components.

Thanks

Yeah 20" are hard to live with need to be extra careful when driving over pot holes or bumps in the roads our roads aren't that much better.

Ride comfort is pretty much non existent with 20" & coilovers.

First off you will need a new or used M3/M4 Instrument cluster, MOST Cable & NBT. After which is pretty much plug & play in terms of hardware side, the coding part, I usually do it myself but as it required some deep level coding, I got the seller 'Max' from Elebest in Singapore to code it.

Although the instrument cluster is working only 90% of it's functional. It still can't display the Gears & Rev lights, we attempted to enable it which causes transmission errors as the car detects their is no DCT installed on the vehicle. Not a big issues still works perfect in terms of entertainment, speedo readout, GPS etc.
