2000 Alpine White III Z3 Mcoupe

[Gizmo]

although I have a Z4M, the Z3M is still my favourite .... it seems a bit more untamed.

you lucky to drive her Gizmo.

Its your car she prefers over the Z3M. I simply love the retro styling of the Z3M inside and out, centre consol with the chrome gauge surrounds matching the cluster and the pull type light switch ticks all the right boxes for me. Z4M screams 21st century with LCD screens and such, Im an old school kind of guy I guess...

My Lord, I was guaranteed that those shocks would work perfectl... but the rear toe went bananas after I installed them.. hence a complete suspension refresh I planned and gave up... correct shocks should bring the rear back in line..

I got those brake lines locally, will provide the details tomorrow... guy was very helpful, could make up and hose you want.. but those a proper HEL lines...

I miss that car man, amazing machine..

Elton is the right owners, no Question.

Konis will be sourced, Bilsteins will go into my E36, problem solved!

Initial measurements on the rear shocks has them around 10cm too long. Will be dropping the whole rear suspension for a thorough cleaning and inspection and installation of the powerflex products.

Please do, one of the things I want to do on my car is a brake system overhaul so can replace the lines then.

Rear is from e30, front is from e36.

The evil work of the BMW bean counters. The car was intended to have four cylinders and compete with the Mazda MX5. Therefore it had to be as cheap as possible. When that plan didn't quite work out, more power was added but it was too late to fix the suspension.

I've got the right stuff!

WOW, this will be a brand new car once all these expensive bits are installed...

Nice one Elton... :clapper:

 

[Gizmo]

When I pull out the old shocks I will take side-by-side pics to show the variances.

Warren, I have the rear rubber shock mount caps, or whatever they are called.

I could possibly drop them off at your place Monday after work.

Ted from Imcomex is a top guy! Very well informed and knows his product better than anyone else in this country!
Funnily enough, I met him like 10years ago when he owned Afrishox, small world.

Add insult to injury why don't you.

 

[Gizmo]

No insult intended, purely for educational purposes.

True story, I should have known better.... only myself to blame...

 

[moranor@axis]

will be much better now with the correct suspension

Are these the Bilstein B6? What's the Bilstein part number on the rear shocks?
