ECS Tuning recently shipped out my VCG kit, DINAN coils, NGK spark plugs and black silicone RTV so once it arrives I will be looking to do the VCG/Secondary Air Pump maintenance on my ZHP![]()
ECS Tuning did not have the Blue capped DINAN coils so I went with these Black capped DINAN coils since they are identical except for the cosmetics.
The RTV needed for the gasket when putting on the new ones
and the new rubber grommets. I now have everything to begin the next phase of my ZHP's maintenance

Just ordered this blue cruise control on/off button to put in my ZHP's multi-function steering wheel![]()
. . . and I just secured acquisition for this rare DINAN carbon fiber engine cover for my ZHP tonight from a very good friend of mine
I figured out the hardware I will need to secure this part and got them too

Blauzed is getting set up for the following by summer of 2023:
- Autosolutions SSK install
- CDV delete
- brake fluid flush
- diff oil flush
- VCG maintenance
..- new valve cover gasket
..- new NGK spark plugs
..- new DINAN coils
- Secondary Air Pump system overhaul
- new cowling
- new wiper arms
- Bilstein PSS-10 w/ Ground Control camber kit install
- new TPMS internal sensors installed on my BBS CH wheels and new Michelin Pilot Sport AS4 tires (235/255)
- CSL bootlid painted Mystic Blue
There may be more I may end up doing to Blauzed as I want to continue getting this car restored properly as it should have all along...
I'm still not working on any of my cars until I have recovered from this sinus infection/allergy I've been going thru but that isn't going to stop me from acquiring parts and mods for my cars . . .![]()

Well . . . it's going to happen . . . I just took out my "spare" BMW Performance Carbon Fiber strut bar where I have been keeping it and decided I will be swapping in this part when I finish my next maintenance on my ZHP. Between my carbon fiber Gruppe M intake, my DINAN carbon fiber engine cover, my G.A.S. CCV Replacement kit and this carbon fiber strut bar, my ZHP's engine compartment should be looking real nice
If I end up sourcing the front DINAN strut bar then I will install this part instead of the BMW Performance front strut bar. I would prefer keeping the BMW Performance carbon fiber strut bar in pristine condition it currently is and have it in case the one being used in my M3 ever breaks... so far it has been solid for me.
I also have the DINAN rear strut tower brace I kept from my first ZHP. I decided I will be installing this brace when I install my Bilstein PSS-10 coilovers and Ground Control Camber Kit in Spring. Probably during Spring break time-frame. I will take a few days off so that I can dedicate my time to work on my car.
The front DINAN tower brace is in Botond's hands. I forgot to remove this part when I sold my ZHP. Looks like I will have to source a brand new one from DINAN before it becomes NLA.
