E92 General Expectation???

[jaysant1]

Hi guys. I drove a friends E90 at the track a good bit yesterday. I don't know if its just because i never drove the E90 but the entire car just didnt' feel right. The steering was totally numb which I could deal with but the ass of the car was all over the place regardless of the 888r tires. I was running 34lbs hot The suspension seemed really sloppy as well with what fel like a lot of play out back. I was just wondering if this is kind of expected with this series of the M3 or not. For comparison I own and M4 and GT3 and they both feel way more stable than this car. The M4 needed a stiffer sway bar up front for the track but that seemed to solve a lot. I am a fairly experienced track driver but just could not get comfortable driving this thing. If this type of feel is not common to the car I would be looking for some recommendations on possible suspension upgrades.

if you're coming from the m4 and a gt3, i would imagine the e9x m3 would feel a bit sloppy out back. the gt3 is a gt3, but the m4 has solid subframe bushings, and the e9x does not.
when i went to solid sub/diff bushings, the feel of the car improved dramatically. if you're on grippy tires and oem suspension with oem bushings, there is a ton of movement back there and it is a bit sloppy.
