Put a few things from old car on it, LED's thru out, Short shifter(has to be one of the best mods for 1 series), glasses holder, boot springs.
Just waiting for plate transfer to be done and black grilles to arrive.
Am after full red leather interior if anyone knows of any for sale?
Chassis copes well as i've upgrade most of it, just rear feels like a boat cause i've not got subframe/bushes/lsd on yet.
Haha, i never actually knew he had uprated his till i came on this forum. Wish i had cause i would have asked for a
passenger ride. Probly could have learnt a lot off him too before i bought mine.

Really! Bloody hell, you really need to get that sorted
The proper bushes utterly transform the car. Rock solid at the rear, but also huge improvement to the steering feel and accuracy!
The inserts do just about cure 80% of the boaty rear though and are super easy and cheap I guess.
John has had the 1M, then 120d, 330d and now 320d since then! We still keep in touch and we'll be seeing him again in June on our Scottish jaunt.
So finally got all the rear end stuff i've been gathering for last 2years fitted.
Fully poly bushed m3 subframe
M3 Arms
Eibach Camber arms
Adjustable toe arms
Kept 135i bottom arm for suspension & 135i brakes
M3 e93 rarb
M3 diff
1M Prop
Csl gearbox bushes
CDV
RTD 360mm Shifter
Braided brake hoses
3 series hubs, wheel bearings and discs, wheels now sit 10mm further in & have enough clearance for 265/30's without rolling arches.
Got the car aligned on tuesday and had to drive home in the snow, so am waiting for all this to pass so i can test the car
Ive not quite got as much power as you but find the 135i brakes are pretty good with ****hot pads, I also found cornerweighting the car and getting as much camber as possible on the front made worlds of difference, particularly on track. I might have missed it but have you done anything for oil cooling at all?
Loving your work though, look forward to bumping into you on track sometime (not literally)
I went with these 371598912495
What offset are your wheels, i tried to search yours
other day lol. I never had clearance issues before i put hubs on, only went for them so i could get et35 spec wheels on with a 265

Yeah all i need is decent pads for these, but i've always wanted a set of AP's and i enjoy the build too.
I'm running 2.5degree camber up front just now with 32 arb, it's more rear end i need to sort, it's a bit soft and too low. Will get it properly setup/corner weighted when new coils go on.

Oil cooling still standard cooler just now! If i do more and more track days i might upgrade it
