Awesome progress! I met the owner of the shop where your car is at while in VIR for BMW Race School. What are your plans with these cars?
Z4 = AER? Z4M = C-Mod? GTS3?

That is correct. The 3.0 will run in HP for testing in CCA and then focused on AER. The Z4M is a C-Mod car for CCA, depending on Specs we might be in GTS3 or GTS2 in NASA. C-Mod is mostly based on displacement with no weight restrictions and the car is estimated to be around 2600 lbs with HP around 445/385 so I am not sure where that will land us. |

Been awhile since we have updated on this here, but making nice progress on both cars. Took the 3.0si out for its first shake down and it went very well after a few adjustments. The only complaint I have is the rev range and power. I am still waiting on the full exhaust and then I can add the epic tune. I am also going to swap out the six speed Z4 for a five speed which should also help. The car will be a great endurance car in the end as it runs all day with no issues.
I finally got the main car into the cage shop and the carbon body is being picked up for shipping to the US this week. Engine is almost finished with larger pistons, a little head work, adding a Tilton flywheel/clutch and went with bigger cams this round. I also added a larger oil-cooler from Zionsville. |

Sorry for mixing them up, I have more coming on both cars.

Found a decent picture of what the final kit will look like.

Really interested to see this kit installed on your car as like you said it is near impossible to find pics of it.
The final weight of the kit and how hard the install is will determine if it is worth me going this route too.

Finally received the kit in from Goke and am pleased to say the parts look great and come with all the hardware. Worth the wait, I am getting ready to look at moving forward with a group buy soon once I get volume pricing back.
Planning on starting initial fitment in the coming weeks. The 3.0si is coming back from the cage shop this weekend and heading to Roebling next week for its first race. |

Why did you only go for poly subframe bushings and not solid?

https://sxmotorsports.com/z4-perform...ckages/z4m-gt4 I am putting together multiple versions and mod packages for those who are I interested. The prices include import taxes and shipping to the US. We have been able to cut 200 to 300 lbs out of car with no problem. More depending on usage and how much you want to spend. Just as a reference for every 100lbs we cut its equivalent to about 25 to 35hp |

And to think that the weight savings is located high in the car and how this must affect its center of gravity and enhanced handling....wow!

Hey bud, you need to update this thread. Pics of those arms and new wing are sublime.
Those arms are sex on a stick mate. Hows the build coming along?
