Just a quick Hi before I start hounding you all with question :-??
As part of a fund raising measure / skint after wedding exercise I sold my Z4M Coupe. Rather than let Visa have the lot I decided to get back in the 'drift' saddle and buy a Z3 (another part of the exercise was getting rid of my competition drift car too :ymsigh: I've only had it a short while, so the not a lot of progress, but I need to glean some more info of people before I carry out any of the big jobs (fit coilovers, Hydro etc) So at the moment it's just cosmetic, getting my black & red theme off the ground.
Anyway enough of me bleeding my heart (-| Here are some pictures:
Photos from the ad and as I bought it 70k on the clock, lady owner for the last 4yrs, bought from BMW Approved Used:
Then test fitted some 19" CSL style wheels I had in the barn (excuse my dodgy phone pictures):
Didn't expect them to fit (offsets) but turns out they're spot on:
Lovely concave on them, just needs a drop (hence the coilovers to be fitted)
Then Plastidiped the front grill:
And the rear bumper
(really pleased with how this turned out)
So that's it right now. I'm not going to run with the CSLs, they are a good 30mm bigger in diameter, too much of an increase in ride height. I've bought some Spax coilovers to go on, 30mm rear, 35-55mm at the front. Also got some black 18's to go on. Then sort out a Hydro and alignment. Then get it out on track to see how she goes
