What did you buy your Z4 this week?

Steeler · 06-16-2021, 09:40 AM

Not down on its wheels yet for a proper picture but here is the OEM rear diffuser for the pre facelift. Carbon fibre skinned by a local company.

Nate4641 · 06-16-2021, 10:05 AM

Bought a rear O2 sensor after mine threw a code while climbing a mountain last week. OOOF that was an expensive trip to the dealership. 1000+ miles into a week long road trip, wasn't something I could stop and do myself.

Finally installed the supercharger. Some work to do yet to re-attach some miscellaneous parts, but the initial short test drive was successful, in that I didn't need to walk home ;~). Yay.

Copycat!

Just did the same exact thing last weekend plus a tie rod.

I've experienced coilovers like KW and ST to become more comfortable and less stiff after driving around for 2000 km or so. I am hoping Bilstein's will come around too but its not that bad to begin with at all. I think they need a little break-in time.

Did the B6 changed the ride heights at all? I wouldn't think shocks would, but have seen reports that it did to some

Yep, just make sure to get the E46 M3 bolts and covers. The bar is tight but fits fine.

I got the 219M wheels refinished this morning. Installation is Saturday and pics will follow.

XMetal · 06-24-2021, 07:03 PM

^^Looks great, but I'm not sure I would like to clean those

flapjack · 06-25-2021, 10:47 AM

Decided to do the Porsche 996 Brake Upgrade on the Front and Rear. Bought the adapters and lines from Eric at RallyRoad and also had the Calipers machined by him (great guy to deal with - highly recommend). Had them powdercoated in illussion red.

Also decided to do the carbon fibre rear diffuser from EuroBoutique. Good quality and easy to install.

This wasn't today, however I completed the OEM muffler mod. Sounds great, no drone, a lot of work. But worth it.

deemo319 · 06-29-2021, 09:02 PM

I am still trying to work some things out

2006E85 · 06-30-2021, 08:10 PM

Headers, MILV's, ECS brake lines, Valve cover gasket, and a new tune. This is an N52 3.0si

wdb · 07-01-2021, 05:14 PM

I bought it some gas so I could introduce it to some dragons.

deemo319 · 07-01-2021, 08:32 PM

After messing up my exhaust system for that I mentioned in a previous post it finally sounds the way I wanted it to in the first place.

Went in today for part II of the installation on my second Magnaflow resonator and fabrication of a set of short pipes that were added to the Schmeidmann 300-cell cats.

Now it sounds delicious and I can now say we are almost ready for our first ZFEST in Greenville.

wyshyvanuk · 07-04-2021, 11:34 AM

Fingers crossed!!

My Bilstein B6 shocks were installed with Eibach Pro-Kit springs which lowered the front appx 3/4 in and the rear appx 1/2 in

TRiCC · 07-08-2021, 01:09 AM

Custom stainless steel side marker roundels

flapjack · 07-08-2021, 03:40 PM

After reading all the threads on the board here and the m3 forums, decided to buy the Megan Racing Headers.

Will give a review on the quality, fitment and performance, once I bolt them up in a week or two.
