What I want answered is which one do I buy to allow for the truck to pop more. I'd buy two of each and just take a gamble...but someone must be able to let me know what ones NOT to buy. Is it: P/N 51248137994 are the 23N* or P/N 51248187291 are the 34N*

The length (height) of both are the same. The 34N* is the more "powerful" of the two if you want more "pop", due to the stiffer spring rate used. Note that the 34N* may be more prone to breakage due to the stiffer spring rate. If it breaks, the end cap and spring may end up rattling inside your trunk's sheet metal...one of the reason I decided not to do this mod after seeing how my front ejector failed (an engineer's pessimist point of view )

23 Nm and 34 Nm
http://www.onlineconversion.com/torque.htm
23Nm = 16.96 pound foot 34Nm = 25.08 pound foot To lift the Z4 M coupe lid is 11 pounds. Two 23Nm works with my car. |

I tried to adjust the gap on the Coupe's hatch when it closes by turning the stops in the rear but they are both (left and right side) bottomed out as far as they will go. Perhaps if I pull them out and dremel more grooves/thread into the stop so I can spin it down further? The top stop ( the stop on the hatch itself) looks like it is not adjustable; just a solid piece of rubber material. Last edited by Jax543210; 02-25-2012 at 05:25 PM.. |

Question....would not the coupe lid be much heavier than the roadster trunk lid? Or am I missing something?

At least with the coupe we have the Roundel to use as a handle.

Also I don't think the weight listed for the Coupe hatch includes the glass.

Glass is 16.57 lb $400.15 retail I lifted my coupe lid at 11 lb. I don't have a roadster to do the lift. Maybe someone will. ... Last edited by Ron Stygar; 02-26-2012 at 10:22 AM.. |
