What did you buy your Z4 this week?

Vanne · 06-24-2016, 12:41 AM

For right fang intake.

This looks like a miniature intercooler system. Is this for brake fluid cooling?

Its an extra oil cooler (engine oil) so should drop temps substantially. More cooling and more capacity.

Nice! What do your temps typically get up to during track days? My oil temp was sitting at around 225 during my track weekend. Not sure what is normal on the track.

Not sure what it is in F, but mine runs quite hot at 112 degrees C, around 10 degrees hotter than my friends mcoupe. This should hopefully bring it back to 100C or the 12 oclock position.
Could ofcourse be an indication error, but my oil px gauge shows good flow and px. And the car runs strong and flawless.

Hmm, 112 C is about 233 F, not too much above mine at the track. I wonder what the average is across the board? On a daily basis mine runs at about 195 F or 90.5 C and only hits the higher temps at the track.

What oil are you running?

Vanne · 06-24-2016, 03:14 AM

Castrol TWS as specified. Eitherway I can definitially use 10 to 15 degree temp drop. esp during track days.

Definitely couldn't hurt, that's for sure. Let us know how it works out; I'm sure quite a few will be interested in the results.

Vanne · 06-24-2016, 06:01 AM

Its not my idea, I stole it from a bloke from SA who posted on here about it.;-)

Few ideas are without inspiration. Hell, without this forum I wouldn't have 90% of the ideas for my car that I've done/plan on doing.

No_Dominion · 07-01-2016, 06:52 AM

Next mod ordered. Nothing huge, but when staying N/A, every little bit helps. Not a bad price, either.

M-Cast · 07-01-2016, 07:13 AM

I just had the rear differentials upgraded a few weeks back and got to throw on my track wheels with Toyo R888's. If you can afford to do the differential, It is by far one of the best mods yet.

You can see most of the picks here, I just set this up last week https://www.facebook.com/MCast2016/

4.10 differential is one of my planned future mods, without a doubt. I've pretty much whittled down all the less expensive items, so from here on out everything will be more of a big ticket item, which makes it more difficult to decide what to do next. The big ones I have lined up (not necessarily in any order) are:

Evolve CF Airbox and Alpha-N Tune
Adjustable Coilover Suspension
Enlarged Individual Throttle Bodies
4.10 Differential
Schrick 280/272 Cams

Vanne · 07-03-2016, 07:36 AM

Underdrive pulley, that might be next on my list if i can get somehow to hide the 229 bucks from the misses

Vanne · 07-03-2016, 07:56 AM

Sigh.. Staying at hotels lurking on the net just leads to buying Z4M parts

Underdrive Pulley UDPS54 - Purchased..

lol

What rear end ratio did you go for? 3.91 or 4.10?
I'm still not sure which one I should take.

M-Cast · 07-03-2016, 01:19 PM

I went with the 4.10, either of those will give you great results. By far it has been one of my favorite mods, I am very tempted to finalize it by adding a Schrick cam. The 4.10 with the labor was $4,166.47

SlickShift · 07-04-2016, 08:11 PM

Nothing too major this weekend. Replaced the turn signal bulb that was out (had to remove the front tire). Good excuse to use my favorite new toy, the Quick Jack lift.

86Zed · 07-05-2016, 07:39 PM

Spent the day working on 3 /M cars, found out mine needs some new KW bits and motor mounts. Order going in for Rogue pieces soon.

There you go, you inspired me on that one

wdb · 07-10-2016, 02:51 PM

I bought some M Sport seats last winter. Finally got them in the car, yay!
