raining out and car is stuck inside for the day. shot of my numbers from race day decals and my interior thru the front. went with siver harness to stick with the silver and black theme. i need to find a single bbs csl rear wheel to replace a cracked one. not sure where to find that if anyone knows.

looking good so far, got more exterior and interior pics?
Also, those wheels should be the standard E46 ZCP wheels no? M3forum.net or e46fanatics guys would know. |

I will take more in time. Waiting on build ones. That would be nice if they were standard zcp. Does bbs make those as well. Have had them off and that is why I thought they were the csl bbs wheels.

Nice!
But why -2.7 camber in the rear? Sounds like a bit much. Usually -2 to -2.5 is the sweet spot.

I'm unsure. That's what I thought also but primebmws build that inspired this one is running -4.5 front and -3.5 rear and seems to work really well. Also has aero which may be the reason?

That's just an unusual number, it could be right. The key is to ask why -2.7 in the rear. More negative camber in the rear will cause understeer. You might like it. I used to run -2.5 in the rear on my 330 and it did well but I would run into understeer around slow, tight corners but was pretty easy to control. Now I run the least amount of rear camber I can (-2.0 right now) without rubbing, That really makes the car rotate and oversteer more.

That is dependent on a ton of factors and could in fact be what has been done. Won't know until I try it out. Doubt its very far off. We shall see. Two different people can drive the exact same set up back to back and disagree whether it oversteers or understeers. How hard do they get into the corner, do they trailbrake properly, does one set the nose of the car better, who is smoother back on throttle, which runs better line?

I am confident that Eddie knows how to set up a cars suspension. This past weekend he raced the E46 M3 and it was cornering slightly faster than the 911 cup cars.......and everything else including GT1 cars.

Oh, the car will oversteer with -3.5 in the rear if the front and rear sway bars are set to do so. Why so much rear camber? So you can put the power down early in the corner increasing exit speed. The key is to get the nose to bite and stick without under steer. This takes a little time to dial in perfectly even for the very best race teams.

I wouldn't touch the sways until you get close. Generally, a square setup with -3.5 front camber will get you pretty close to neutral.
The limitation that most run into is front suspension travel on an E46. Which is the opposite from my experience on the E90. Sometime people complain an E46 under steers and start throwing upgrades at it. Really, they should try to increase the front suspension travel. Increase height, spring rates, and compression damping (if your dampers can take it). I'm not saying your setup is right or wrong...just throwing out possibilities. If anything, you should be very hesitating to change anything unless you clearly understand what the issue is.

put in new set of rs19s and found out both front and rear rotors are close to minimum thickness. BBK probably in the near future i would say. shot of the mcs and hypercoils. also put on my ad08s for street use and track in the wet.
