Over the past few weeks its gotten a little louder and I really like it a lot. Also added the Macht Schnell Performance filter.....did plugs, thermostat, coolant, etc.

More I drive this car the more I fall in love with it. Its not my daily driver and I miss driving it terribly when I use my other car(s).

So happy I bought this!!!

Looks like my M3!

Cool dude.....yeah great color combo.
My son took this quick vid after the tune:

If anyone wants my gloss black grills with the m stripe send me a pm

Finally ordered front rotors. Assembled majority of the kit on FCP and then got StopTech Street Pads from ECS .-. if FCP had them I would have ordered from there also o well

Went down to MRF Engineering and had KW Clubsports fitted. What a difference! Car feels MUCH nimbler without really sacrificing comfort.

Posted my E90 for sale. Thinking of switching over to an E92 or a Pcar

PACarGuy · 10-03-2018, 03:11 PM

Finally took it to the track last Saturday.

I just got my M3. I'm looking to get there as well. We're they difficult to install?

Nah its pretty easy, you will get a few scratches on your hands unless they are small lol

E90beemerfan · 10-06-2018, 08:42 AM

Cleaned my M3 and changed spark plugs. I was surprised how much power was lost due to bad spark plugs. Not that they had many running hours, but hard track duty and a few cylinder cut outs obviously killed performance. For those of you pushing your S65 hard at the track, consider replacing the spark plugs sooner than recommended intervals. Anyway, it was good to feel the urgency of the s65 chasing the 8600 rpm limit again

Exclusivs · 10-06-2018, 12:42 PM

^OEM or NGK? (Yes yes I know "same thing") - just curious.

Speed yellow looks great!

Not "Same thing" but exactly the same thing with different logos. Doesn't make sense to buy OEM Genuine Parts unless you're under warranty lol.

I use NGK.

Today I installed a set of TE37SL purchased from another member. I'm loving the look so far!

TE37SL in gloss black
18x9.5 ET22 with 265/35/18
18x10.5 ET20 with 285/35/18

Tires are Michelin PS4S and the car is lowered on Swift springs with OEM EDC shocks.

ItsGary · 10-06-2018, 05:27 PM

Might need to replace the alternator on my car.

The painted calipers look great behind those wheels and against the white paint.

Ordered a new alternator from RockAuto since $230USD > $265usd from ECS > $395usd from FCP

I think you may have your maths backwards on this one

I've got to say, it seems like you are constantly buying maintenance items for your car.

I beg to differ -230 is greater than -265

Mainly preventative. I do drive a lot more than most people. I personally thought I was done with maintenance for a bit until the alternator issue came. I've been putting off brakes for 8 months also.

masturfator · 10-07-2018, 10:41 PM

much needed bath. Was in an out of the shop the past couple weeks - rod bearings/engine mounts, and then the air bag + blower motor wire recall.
