Worked on a single piece front clip this weekend. Due to the Varis Lower Spoiler and the Splitter, I finally just pulled it together into a single piece that just bolts on to the front of the car.

Now I just have to work out the brake ventilation.

Finally started working on getting the airbox installed last week and have had to wait for some additional parts.

ECS had mostly what I needed.

IAT Relocation Harness, CSL Dipstick Tube, CSL Crank Case Vent Hose and CSL AIr Shut Off Valve.

I have decided to go with Epic for the tune. If any goes with the Geoff Steel Airbox, you will need to also change out the throttle body boots as they use the earlier version that has a 60 mm fitting versus the later model S54 which is 70 mm. Lastly, make sure you get these clear coated. I went with 3 coats to prevent coloring from the engine. Theirs only has the gel coat.

It would be nice if these guys provided a little more instruction and packaged the additional parts needed once you get the installation process. We have one month to get this completed and broken in for the next event. Keeping my fingers crossed.

The direct fit for the M is the E46 None M version. The quality is great and better than a few of the others I have seen.

Having issues with the DME and throttle actuator, it is a little frustrating was planning on heading to the track this weekend. I have a few people trying to isolate the issue. We are not getting power to the throttle, we have spent 2 days chasing down and testing wiring issues, but everything is leading back to the DME, I am waiting on one person to get back in town before I purchase a new one.

Hey buddy, how is it going?

Couple of questions man, that part number for the fly wheel you listed previously is NOT for the z4m, and is only for the z3m. Not sure if that makes any difference, but found out as my freaking pressure plate won't fit the lightweight flywheel. My flywheel part number is 520-180-240 which is the proper fitment for z4m.???

The clutch plate will fit both, but the pressure plate won't.

What did you end up fitting to your car?
