What is the stock ride height and where do I measure it from? I told my alingment guy to leave it stock but not sure of he did it. Right now I have 1.5 finger in the wheel well on stock wheels and I think stock is more.
Also going down to 18 inch wheels…still stock height? I’d have to raise...
My dampers are brand new so hopefully they are in good condition and properly charged as I did not check the pressures. The other thing is the person who installed the dampers was supposed to put them on stock settings and after a few sessions I found the adjusters to be all over the place. Now...
I was thinking the same thing, but fronts are just as worn as the rears, maybe even more. Again though who knows, test with a fresh set will yield better metrics.
Yes
I see, yeah I have sent a message, if they honor that price I'll get it for sure, else, personal shipment it is.
I am thinking about a data logger that taps in to the can bus as well....Wonder if the same posi tap can be used for both, or they would need their own access at different points.
Thanks for that, EPC black friday sales seems effy, if I can't get in with that I think I'll go the same route you went, hope you won't mind if I shoot a DM or two your way.
Understood. I have E85 readily available but the power mod is not needed for the street, its for the track. At the track...
Yes.
custom tune does not equal custom ROM right? BM3 CustomRom is a type of ROM that allows custom tune and other parameters?
Also EPC shows the black friday sale on the website but not when I add the items to cart. DME unlock still shows $1600. A note states BF sale is 24 hours and starts...
What is a reasonably complete system look like? I am trying price out a package where I'd have the ability to run majority of the OTS maps from BM3 as well as future capability to custom tune.
1) BM3 License
2) DME Unlock and BM3 installation in Finland through EPC or yourself.
3) Flex fuel...
Stock car on stock Federal 595 RS-RR with whatever stock alignment was understeering alot.
Now has MCS2W with vorschlag, rear toe links and front sway bar end links. Alignment is -3.7 camber 0 toe front -2.5 camber 1/8inch in toe rear. Spring rates are 12k (672lb) front and 11k (616lb) rear...
Here is my experience, feel free to add to the top post.
TLDR: Works exactly as described on post #1 on a 2023 Prem MT. The only exception is becore selection 3000 I let the tool “merge” the “files”. ot sure what they are but skipped a step in there. This though took me 5 hours to complete...
I don’t find it acceptable, just trying to see if its user error. Although not adding a lift tab to reverse is miss on Toyota and would have prevented this.
So like I said above under heavy load, race track conditions where I grab the shifter a bit too hard, 3-2 downshift can be problematic.
However outside that this gearbox is fantastic. I mean it is one of the best I have owned and I have been driving manual cars for 25 years.
It is mind...
3 to 2 under load is pretty bad for me. Buttonwillow cw13 off ramp 3-2 downshift and streets of willow skidpad 3-2 downshift are missed more often than not. Miss meaning it won't go in to second at all and I am forced to use third.
I think what I am doing is pulling the level too far to the...
Track wheels, TPMS or not?
How does not having TPMS affect pressures lower than 24psi popping traction control back on?
Do I have to deal with car sounding the bmw gong and throw a message/caution because no TPMS?
Project Mu Club sports are the ones that @razorlab has been uber strongly suggesting. Unfortunately they have been out of stock for a while and I had to pivot the DCT 60s. They have been great and reasonably quiet on the street but interestingly after the 4th track day they started to squeak...
