Are there any other good options outside of Autowerks and RRT? I have caster/camber plates that need to be installed, then a 4 wheel alignment. I am down in Alexandria.
Thanks

Where did you order the alcantera from? What was the cost?
It can be pretty expensive. I did not go to the dealer, but there is not a great/cheap shop where I live. It cost me $2100 for rear shocks with new reinforced mounts, front struts, FCABs, rear...
Suspension: I have just about 120K on my ZHP, and just did a suspension refresh prior to a couple trackdays this past year. I went with the Bilstein HD, which feel a bit harder than the old OEM...
Straight up trade for a ZHP sedan?;)
Yes, oldest in a booster. The other two in forward facing convertibles. The seats are wedged in pretty tight in the back of my F10 535i, but there are people on the e39 forums that swear you can...
My current DD/trackday/auto-x car is my 2004 330i ZHP. These days it rarely gets any DD time, just occasional trackdays. I bought it in 2010 after the birth of our first child, when a 2dr coupe was...
Casey BMW on Jefferson, first time I have ever been there. Not sure where the next closest dealer is?? Out in Virginia Beach or up in Richmond?
I had mine done here in Yorktown, VA a couple weeks ago. I have been ignoring the situation for some time, as the car barely gets driven anymore since the birth of my third kid. I got the letter...
Thanks, Derek. I appreciate the input.
My original question remains though, how much camber can you get running the OEM suspension, rather than coilovers?
I figure on getting adjustable plates so that I can run a more normal setting for street driving, and more camber for trackday/auto-x.
I have an '04 330i ZHP. I am running a non-coilover suspension, but I am looking for more front camber for trackdays. How much is actually possible with the stock springs?
I see options from...
I just did a weekend at Summit Point Main the week prior with Trackdaze. The M3 fuel tank baffle works great. I previously had fuel starvation issues coming out of Turn 1 at both Summit Point and...
The first car I bought myself was a '92 Oldsmobile Achieva SCX, like this:

The only reason I have a 330i was because I needed a sedan for a baby seat. The e46 M3 doesn't come in a sedan, so a 330i was as good as it got. If I could do a straight swap, I would get an e90...
In the past when I have bought a filter you got the washer, the large o-ring for the filter housing lid, and the two smaller o-rings for spike that goes through the middle of the filter. I just...
No longer in San Antonio, now in Yorktown, VA.
Unfortunately, the trackday at COTA got cancelled due to the monsoon rains we were getting. To make up for it, I took her here on my way up to Virginia.

Technically yesterday, but changed the oil, changed the transmission fluid, changed the differential fluid, bled the brakes, and gave it a general once over in preparation for a trackday at Circuit...
Too bad they don't know how to drive, or at least park.

Dead thread revival! I get the same thing at around 2 when I get below 3/8 tank. I installed the M3 fuel tank baffle, but haven't been back to VIR since. I don't get this issue at Summit Point...
I run 255/40R17 Nitto NT-01s for trackdays on a set of Apex ARC-8. Stock suspension, no issues with rubbing. I would be leary of 255/45, particularly if you are lowered. There is a thread about...
