What did you do to your M3/M4 today?

rmmiii · 09-13-2021, 09:41 PM

Have you tried all 4 track tires in back seat with seats in normal position? That leaves trunk for box of stuff plus jack plus chair plus cooler of water, . . .

F82 that mostly worked - drivers seat had to move up a bit. I'm hoping g80 with carbon seats I can stick 4 track tires on appropriately covered rear seats and appropriately covered track or street tires.

Haven't tried yet as I haven't bought the track tires yet.

Video 3 or 12, I think, specifically mentioned what you may be referring to.

I haven't, but debated it.

I might try and fit them while they're unused and clean.

I also might just drive the 40 miles to the track with them on to save the hassle and not make a mess.

I need a support vehicle

rmmiii · 09-14-2021, 08:47 AM

Tire Sherpa.

I generally put track tires on and street tires in back seat. Depends how I feel about putting street back on at end of 2 day hpde.

I agree support vehicle and /or tire Sherpa would be awfully handy. Not sure the going rate for either

ATX_G80 · 09-14-2021, 01:01 PM

Added the r44 diffuser and cs style trunk lip. Also had the car ceramic coated and plan to take some shots this weekend.

Can you post more pics of that lip from farther away? Where did you purchase that from?

that's a common option. not sure i wanna put a tow hitch on the car though. if i can transport the track wheels + jack and a few tools I would be happy. I not going to track the car more than 1-2 times a year. I have access to race prepped cars for that.

Remington · 09-14-2021, 09:35 PM

What did I do today, thanks for asking.

I picked up mine today from the SC Performance Center. Fantastic day flogging their M4, visiting the factory, and running the obstacle course in an X5.

Pictures to come.

Which springs did you go with and have they fully settled?

I went with AST springs and they seem fully settled to me, I have only had them on for about 100 miles though.

Seems perfect. I’m, fingers crossed for xDrive, going with these AST’s too.

mattssi · 09-15-2021, 10:20 AM

Speaking of ASTs - any issue getting them within alignment specs?

m20e3087 · 09-15-2021, 04:58 PM

Catless DP, MSS HAS rear only (waiting on parts and tools for the front) and 13mm spacers.

kayt69 · 09-15-2021, 10:56 PM

Got Full front end PPF and ceramic coating done today. Found a twin at the shop!

That spoiler looks great

Making sure it fits in the garage..

Mperor · 09-16-2021, 01:56 PM

Just got my "china" OEM-look front lip spoiler, R44 rear spoiler, painted front reflectors installed. Also got the custom x-pipe and spacers. I am waiting for the lowering options for the all-wheel drive.

The R44 rear spoiler is larger than I expected in person than from the pictures, need to get some use to... but I think I will like it.

The china knock-off came out MUCH better than expected, I save close to $2K and really can't tell the difference from the OEM Performance one
