You're not pulling our legs are you?
Is that the "other" car you track? Off topic question: any ideas on brake cooling ducts/systems for our ///Ms? I'm no where near needing this (but I'm hoping some day I will be). There are others here who may need to think in this direction at some point. P cars seem to be able to use GT3 parts on "lower" model cars (e.g. Cayman) from what I've read, but I'm not aware of any approach for the Z4M. Thought I'd ask given what seems like your experience/expertise with that kind of thing...No worries if you'd rather not chime in on this. |

On the GT2/3 the lower pan directs air up towards the brakes, however on those cars the radiators are on the outer inlets (IE they don't flow through to the brakes like the Z4M inlets). I'm not sure how much more effective it is over our cars which have the inlet feeding the brake duct area directly. I've yet to experience brake fade with my Stoptech kit and a proper pad so haven't needed to explore it. If that does indeed happen we'll just fabricate an inlet plate for that back of the rotor that attaches to the hub and feed air from a duct in the front air dam (although I honestly don't see that happening).
