Thanks! I have not been with the shop for about 3 years.
More updates soon!

This car will most likely remain as a overall street car with limited if any track driving as I have a car for the track already.
I had regular v3 on my old e90 and they were perfect, i had 2 way club sports on my old m4 and they were also perfect, so I decided the go with something better then v3 but not more then needed, This should make a perfect balance on a street car.

I did not!

Finally got to changing the rod bearings!
These are at 91,340.

To note, I haven no maintenance records on the car but I do think its been mostly stock its entire life.
Not the worse ive seen, no sign of near failure but worn for sure.

I replaced with BE Bearings and BE Bolts with new stock engine mounts while I was in there.

The work was done by Prime Performance and IMG Motorsport.

I found a private supplier that makes the closest OEM Gts lip setup ive been able to find,
I will be running that instead of the oem.

It came with the full slider and mounts just like the OEM
I still have to unbox the rest but will have pics when I do!

Does the supplier ship internationally?
