I'll be darned if this is not one of the highest if not the highest mileage Z4M on here.
As you are turning this into a track monster I would question why you have chosen to go with the following parts:
Maybe it is something to do with your racing class rules? Looks like you have decided to go for monoball front camber plates and RSM so why cheap out on the other bushings? Not sure if you might have forgotten to mention the RCA - Upper Inner Bushings. These also cop a real hammering and are also available in upgraded monoball designs for zero deflection.

You can buy them at your local BMW dealer or lots of places online.

You just sandwich them between the top of the camber plates and the strut tower. No welding required, it is a very DIY install.

Luckily my shop GT Peace in Chantilly, VA have them on hand and will toss them in while they are installing my suspension on Wednesday. They are also going to make sure they don't interfere with the Vorshlag camber plate adjustments and leave enough thread for a strut bar. FTW! Thanks for sharing! |

I owe you all an update, so far everything is going great!!! I just mounted some 265/35 pilot sport cip 2’s today and the car feels amazing. Quite an upgrade from the worn out rs-3’s.
