I definitely have plans, but they will be mild compared to what I have done to some cars.

Thanks guys. I was really searching out a unique Individual blue car, and I couldn't believe when I found Rob's car for sale. The Rust Brown interior sealed the deal for me.

I traded them for Rob's HRE C20. Great guy to deal with.

Really glad she went to a good home, still one of my favorites on here.

Btw, really glad you are going with Swifts. They are such amazing springs

Great looking car, can't wait to see what you have planned

Chill72 · 01-19-2014, 08:09 PM

I love Volks but they look way small on your car, put those ZCPs back on it ASAP. This is a show car, stop making it a race car...it's too heavy.

DR.Nefario · 01-20-2014, 12:32 AM

I can't wait to see how this thing turns out. All your other cars came out legit and I'm borderline obsessed with LSB so I'm sure it will be good.

I'm thinking about going with the same specs for my track/summer set-up, do you have any clearance or rubbing issues on the ZCP suspension?

esquire · 01-20-2014, 02:10 AM

Not really feeling the te-37's on that beautiful color. Congrats on a great car. Do what makes you happy. But also be prepared to accept people's opinions on this forum. That's what forums are all about afterall

micha3l · 01-20-2014, 03:00 AM

Looks great! As soon as its dropped the wheels will look fine, wheels always look too small with huge wheel gap

Powerbeast · 01-20-2014, 09:40 AM

Please post pics after lowering

Ringer · 01-20-2014, 10:36 AM

Very nice colour!

Oh god sometimes I miss this car so much haha.

VOLK TE37 FTW

Nice looking car, too

jacobe92 · 01-20-2014, 11:09 AM

I've always admired this car. A little over a year ago when this car was at EAS in Anaheim I took a picture of it. I'm glad it went to an M3 enthusiast. Oops, just realized it's not of the same interior. It's not the same car. Nevertheless, it's a beautiful color. Lol

So are you the one that burned all the rubber off the rear PSSs on the ZCPs?

This won't be a huge build for me, but I would be lying if I wasn't tempted by the supercharger kits. Definitely planning some more suspension and brake upgrades.

I don't drive show cars. I never have, and I never will. I own a race car, so this is a street car for occasional AutoX and track days.

I can see how the 1/2" or so of lip before the spokes start can create a smaller looking wheel visually. I would never run 20s on this car, but I did have 19" Volks on my LMB E92 M3, but I really wanted a more track focused square setup this time.

What do you have planned for yours? Don't forget to keep your What's Up thread updated. Not even close to rubbing anywhere with this setup on the OEM ZCP suspension.

I realize not everyone loves the TE37s and that they tend to be more popular with the track guys and the OC guys.

I think it will look better. I was looking at it today, and the wheel gap really doesn't bother me as much as it did when I first installed them.

Will do. They are set to be delivered on Thursday, and hopefully I will get the time to install them this weekend.

My LMB E92 M3 was definitely the car I missed the most once I traded it in on a C6 Z06. The more I drive this car the more it confirms in my mind that the E92 M3 is the best all around car money can buy.

Only my third set of TE37s, and my fourth set of Volks (had some GT-7s).

All the LSBs seem to have gravitated to the OC. I am glad I pulled one away to the sorta East Coast, haha.

Thanks. It was a great car and getting rid of it was a mistake. The oh so rare Speed Cloth single humper with 6MT and carbon fiber roof with no options. My new LSB is nearly the complete opposite, but I get to experience both now.

Me too. I would still prefer the Carbon Leather over the custom painted Piano Black trim that Rob had done though. Wish I could find someone to make the swap with.

Haha yes that was me. That was actually what sealed the deal to switching to HRE's (his set had newish PSS while mine were... used haha).

I'm sure you couldn't find someone to swap CF leather with you for Piano trim though.

Time Lord · 01-20-2014, 06:27 PM

Why are the wheels so small? they didnt have bigger sizes?
