Wish list from ESC

I did complain several times to them regarding their packaging of parts with some success, and their projected delivery / ship dates are usually optimistic.

One link for feedback on ECS Tuning has 544 comments and has ECS Tuning rated at 1 star with 100% of the responses at this rating. As an engineer, I find this curious, as statistically, this would seem very unlikely...

Seems like there is a bit of a smear campaign going on here...

I've been ordering from them for about 5yrs and only ever had 1 part mix up so I was surprised when I read those bad reviews. To be on the safe side I ordered as much of that wish list as I could from Bimmerworld and the rest from ECS. ECS got 1/3rd of the business and the rest went to BW.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind, there's always stuff that is needed.

Well, parts are slowly starting to trickle in, today the 034 mortorsports engine and trans mounts came in, still rubber but much firmer than stock and my new wheels.
APEX 18x9ET31 and 18x9.5ET22

Funny how that works out, huh?! My parts list for wanting to replace the OFHG on my N55 grew to touching brakes and transmission...

The ECS order arrived today, only took a week, everything is there, a few other things came in as well. The shifter is the Garagistic short shifter with UUC DSSR, Garagistic doesn't make one for our cars, I may have to modify it for length but I'll see when I get there.
The Bimmerworld order should be in soon too.

I was going to suggest the ECS shifter rebuild kit with the stiffer Turner bushings, but looks you've gone way past that.

And yeah, I've ordered tons stuff from ECS over year last 7 years with no issues. They've had a handful of parts that said they were in stock only to find out they're endlessly back ordered, but their support has always been helpful, making it easy to cancel or substitute parts and ship the parts of my orders that are ready now.

The rest of the order came in from Bimmerworld By the time I install all of this it's going to as close to a new Z4 as I can make it.
Bimmerworld told me that this Coolant Expansion Tank was the last one to be had, apparently they not going to be making them anymore.
