Admittedly, and I'm sad to say it, I sold the 330 to make way for an M3. Reason being, it was just too much time and money to sink into the 330 when I could buy an M3 for...

I've had it installed for I think around 4 months now. I just switched it to "test" mode, let the car warm up, and it's still working perfectly. Install time is probably around a half-hour to an hour...
Wish I had found this thread earlier, probably irrelevant by now but I had the same issue. With me, the wiring harness that sits next to the intake boot near where the boot connects to the AFE intake...
Not much new to report. Removed headlight washing system and fog lights (haven't weighed yet). Bought a set of four new Kumho Ecsta XS's 235/40/18 for next year. Oil cooler is in progress. A/C system...
Make sure when you installed the AFE intake the harness that goes under the intake boots is in front of the MAF. Otherwise it can compress the boots and cause the car to run poorly. Unlikely if the...
MOT (Maximum Operating Temperature) on the Stoptech pads is 1300f - which is VERY high for a street pad. OEM is somewhere around 800/900f. Braking power is similar, but with the Stoptech's I've...
Yes, Pilkington is an OEM supplier. I'd still rather have the factory glass for the same price. I definitely wouldn't go aftermarket, just my opinion.
CDV Delete really smoothes things out from 1st to 2nd.
Pretty sure AutoZone doesn't do that anymore unfortunately.
Wow, very nice setup! I'm planning on going Ground Control with 6" Springs at 550 or 600lbs.
Here's my DIY: http://www.zhpmafia.com/forums/showthread.php?935-Oil-Pressure-Oil-Temperature-amp-Voltmeter-Gauges-DIY
Total cost was about $270. It takes a lot of time, but as long as you have...
Good point, I'm going to guess it is mostly due to the lower redline (6,000). Assuming the oil pump issue was/is fixed, running the car to redline would have no ill side effects on the 330's. Also,...
I never run my A/C or use my sunroof even though the car has both. More to the point, I don't mind losing creature comforts for weight loss (see my build thread :rofl).
I also try to run as little...
Running with the Boot.
The reason is I want to modify the stock oil filter housing is that it preserves stock functionality and it's cheaper. The way PEI330Ci had it set up it (VAC Billet OFH) it...
Please note that running the car over 6,000 RPM's contiguously is not advised. Although the car has a redline of 6,800 (or 6,500 if not ZHP), the rev limiter should really be 6,000 across all models....
Not sure if these have been covered yet but two things.
1. The "rev limiter" does not instantaneously kick in to stop you exactly at 6700rpm, so you could theoretically rev past it a bit (such as...
What coilovers are you running? 750lbs is pretty hefty :thumbsup Are they 6" springs?
Normal operating temperature for the oil in our cars is around 230f. Optimally, oil temp would be 180f-200f. At about 280f you should start worrying, at about 300f you start to bake the oil (it...
Well Watkins Glen was a partial success. I battled high oil temps (300f+) the entire weekend which resulted in two oil changes and a loss of 4 sessions (basically a day). I could hang with almost...
Installed new rear shock mounts with Z4 reinforcement plates, front strut tower reinforcement plates, CDV delete (is awesome!), transmission fluid and differential fluid. 5 more days! :) Still need...
Installed 80C Thermostat (Cars runs at 83C), NGK Iridium Spark Plugs, and Mahle Fuel Filter. More to come.
As you guys may have noticed a majority of my pictures are down - I sold the website they were hosted on but I will be getting a new website dedicated to my car for the pictures, etc. I will be...
Looking good! What tires did you go with?
Yes, it will be very helpful when I go to do it :)
I believe I will be going with the following coil-overs: http://www.ground-control-store.com/products/description.php/II=692/CA=232 and probably with spring rates of 6"/500lbs front and rear.
