On the other hand my FRM fried haha. I must've touched the battery terminal on accident. Windows didn't roll up hill assist fail no turn signals headlights always on (even at off position). Getting it replaced with warranty so all good.
Cool! Gonna pull the trigger on everything soon. That's the #2013 momo hub right? Also, what size wheel is that? 350mm? TIA

It's a targa. It's like 320. It's smaller than oe steering wheel. Now that the stiffness is gone it feels like butter.

I think it's 2011 hub. I googled e90 momo hub. I ordered mine from Turner. They price matched ECS which was listed as cheaper.

Can you share how you mounted your gopro? I have an amazon roll bar mount with minimal extensions, but am still getting warp and rolling shutter due to vibration at high speed.
I use an i/o port mount. Some of my friends use Ram mount for roll bars. They're pretty sturdy too. I have all the arms and joints folded close together so to minimize the vibration.

Same thing happened to me. Now I always got the airbag light on. I haven't found a way to get rid of it without a OBD Scanner from my knowledge

Just depends on your ride height, but will work fine. The 18x10ET25 is only 4mm more toward the fender, so lots of clearance still. I'm getting ready to stuff some 265-40-18 Trofeo-R meatwagons on 10"ET25 wheels. They are almost as big as NT01 275-40-18's.... I'll post pics when everything is finished being installed on the M3.

You can run the 40 aspect ratio tires with a low ride height, just can't use the super aggressive offsets.

I prefer meaty fitments....better load rating, more progressive handling and just look more motorsport oriented in general, IMO.

It's so pretty. It's a shame you can't see it once it's installed.

I put electric tape around the resistors and friend resert the airbag warning and it's good to go now.

Can't wait to put the omp sticker on!

I have a nice worksbell quick release but don't need the wheel brushing up on my chest since I already sit pretty close to the wheel

Shit is cool though. Maybe I'll do it lol

To get the airbag light off you need a tool that can reset SRS lights. Most high end OBDII scanners have that capability. Or you can buy the peak airbag reset tool off Amazon

Car is in the shop with a rough idle issue, thought I would probe the group for thoughts. SYT said perhaps check plugs and coils which makes sense.

Interestingly the noise goes away when the rpms go up.

Yeah it's pretty close to me too. For daily driving it sucks but racing it's actually pretty cool

Does your wheel retain the telescoping feature (can you move it closer, farther away from you) etc.

Oh, and did anyone with this carbon driveshaft have a few of these little marks near where the balancing weights are? Ok trying to determine if they are normal marks or shipping damage. It looks like a very slight indentation, but there appears to be a tiny dab of black paint on it which leads me to believe it was a calculated mark.

Rough idle like when at a stop light the car shakes? Or rough idle like the tpms bounce around? If it's shaking , maybe motor mounts are dead
