EdgeOfSanity's weekend track day build

[rwense]

MCS turned that blown damper around quickly and I got it back last night and installed this morning. Took the car for a long drive today, felt good to drive it again, its been sitting for the last 2 months due to weather, traveling, and broken parts. Ride quality is much better with the MCS coilovers in even if it is noticeably stiffer. I have always hated the way bmw's ride, this car is no exception. Rides a lot like my S4 does now, just stiffer and I love the way that car rides. Feels fantastic at highway speeds, can't wait to get it on track. Setup makes some noise at lower speeds, nothing at highway speeds. Mostly the dampers are noisy. I'll put some more miles on it this week, adjust the ride height a little bit this weekend and call it good until I get the verkline arms in.

Also, I installed the Rapid Designs rear diff brace earlier this week. Really nice part, love the quality and the looks. Makes a noticeable difference with shifts too and it was super easy to install with the Verus scoop.

Fuel system up next.

Hell yeah! The brace looks sweet with the burnt Ti exhaust.

Thank you sir

If you have the space, I *highly* recommend getting a string kit. Either pre-built or building yourself. It's completely changed the game for me, saved me many times, and I no longer rely on a 3rd party. Also, with your setup, it makes alignments much easier, once you get the hang of it, than OEM parts. The learning curve is actually not steep at all. I'm an idiot and I got it pretty quickly.

Yeah, I was already looking at how to do string alignments on youtube these past few weeks. Didn't realize anyone sold kits for this, I was going to make a trip to home depot and build my own. My only concern is my garage is not perfectly flat, it has a slight slope toward the entrance so water runs out.

I have a similar space. As long as you shim each corner you should be all set!

I bought a BG Racing kit about four years ago. It was a little cheaper back then. That said, it's easily payed for itself many times over since.
