What did you do for your ZHP/ BMW / MINI today? #2

Sweet! good find on the cloth seats. We had then in our e53 and loved them. Kristen's 135 has manual seats. we don't miss the electric at all.
Nothing like the sound of a V8. Awesome find!

Nice!

Are you going bc, BP?

Did you buy that M3, San? Looks good! I didn't know you could buy an M3 with anything but leather or leatherette.

I like the V8 MPG there. LOL

Thanks. The Daughter deserves it most of the time. I did a full 3 compound buffing/polish when I first got it. So it has a nice clean surface to take wax.

Just got done replacing the power steering res and finally did the transmission fluid.

6 speed manual. Replaced fluid at 98k - pentosin mtl2 1.7 -1.8 quarts.

Oil and filter

Hell no. I'm going with Bilstein PSS10.

Unfortunately it was either that or the KW V1 since that's all that FCP carries in stock besides BC. I chose to go with the adjustability route so I could change my dampening settings for street vs track.

BP, I have heard that some find the PSS10s a stiff ride. If you get them I will be interested in hearing what you think of them since the streets where you drive are terrible...


I'll be changing out my BCs in the M3 for a new set of..... BCs Decided I would rather spend the extra cash on the ZHP and finish off the rear 135i caliper upgrade rather then spend the cash on a set of Ohlin coilovers for the M3...

Pss10's dialed down to 1 are a MUCH more comfortable ride than whatever H&R's and Bilstein Sports. I've had H&R race and "Sport" Sports. I've got the 10's set on 3 and it is still a better ride and my car is low.

I planned on running them at around 4, maybe 5. Based on the comment above, 4 is looking more likely. I'd have to see how they are. I want to adjust height for maybe 2 fingers worth of wheel gap, which should hopefully be high enough to allow for a little bounce and still be acceptable for looks.
