Oops, my post got cut off for some reason.

The rest of the article has been posted in the first post for those that missed the rest of it.

I am surprised it only runs 235 in front, although an M3 standard has 245. I would have expected a 265 square set-up....

This is why I have KWV3 and Akrapovic Exhaust

Funny how there are still debates on this forum over which is the best exhaust system or the M3, yet the GT4 and most racing teams use this very system.

It is the best for performance, weight and sound

Am I missing something? Electronically controlled differential? Did they change the diff as one of their mods but it's not mentioned?

Nice

I don't remember where exactly, but this M3 E92 was faster than the M3 CSL E46.

Testament to the marvel of deliberate engineering. Interesting that they just changed the pads.
