My Rides - History

I need to get my wheels back on so I can 'Drive' the car properly. Feel too guilty using the rubber, except for when Pere and I went for a drive :fencelook:

@ SpeedyV I agree the 1M wheels will look MAD on the car, the CSL's as well. But I'm happy to keep the originals as they're light weight, I've pretty much spent my budget on performance mods and I think it's better investing it in performance than looks.

Come to think of it there isn't really much choice for alternative OEM wheels that look good for the car, considering offset and looks. I'm just damn lucky that Peertjies was so forthcoming and generous :thumbs:

Wow...that Z of Andy is a monster... Rocket with wheels. I think there might still be grab marks on the dashboard when we took one corner at a generous amount of wheel speed... :rollsmile:

No probs Andy... I told you I like helping out my buddies and with all the lekker visits we had you definitely considered a friend. Just need to have a lekker braai still! :thumbs:

Andy, just keep in mind that the 1M wheels are exactly the same as the M3 competition pack wheels. They are super light as well and a PITA to clean.

Got some new rubber and my wheels are back on :) Thanks peertjies for your wheels! I owe you big time :ty:

Got my hands on some new Toyo Proxes T1 Sport tyres. Always wanted Toyo's on my car :) Ever since I saw them on the GT-R 34 featured in one of the Fast and furious episodes lol

Then just had to clean the wheels properly while they were off. Especially in those hard to reach places...

Love the M with 18s, the 19s bring on its own look but yours looks clean.
BBS on the 5 series is tops too

Sorted out a little rattle in the M today. A very faint but noticeable rattle emanating from the left door speaker.

Found the culprit after removing the doorcard

So which one is faster, the Z4 or Peertjies' M3? :fencelook:

Wrong thread...
my gti... :fencelook: :biglol:

@andy: glad you sorted out that speaker...from day one we figured that something was rattling. :bravo:

So..any news on your software? :=):

We will still find out, the M3 changes better between 1st and 2nd and we've only had a feeler, the M3 seemed to claw back between shifts as I jumped the gun a bit. But too little to judge really. We'll see what happens after 3rd...

@ Rommies today I delivered the 330i back so didn't get around to the software.

I'm going to zwartkops tomorrow morning to have the before dyno done. Will check out the shop and give feedback, "Supertech auto"

Awesome remember the camera :inlove:

@Rommies: :biglol: No way a stock Gti is faster than the M3 or Z4M.

Sorry guys. We had a quick run planned but my wifey was very sick yesterday and i could not leave her alone at home :thumbdo:
We really wanted to see what diff the software does...
I think we might be able to fit in something tonight or Saturday.
Sorry Andy :cry:
