Congrats, do the sound generator mod, only firewall end.

Many safe miles :thumbs:

Thanks bud. Will definitely have a look at that

@Chris, the sound generator mod has been done already ( was first thing thing I did when got it ) Hope you're having a blast with it!

Excellent..

did you do the software? or was it done by previous owner.
would love to know just how much of a difference it makes..?

good to know my car has a sibling

Previous owner did software. Tells me there is a difference especially in sport mode. Unfortunately dont have stock car to compare with but ill maybe do a few runs and log it

It was software and a decat, and it made a noticeable difference Never got actual figures but my guess would be around 20nm extra torque and around 12kw more in power.

Congrats Chris, I really like the coupe z4's :inlove:


Did you sell the e46?

 

[Donovan2412]

Congrats Chris looks great!

What's happening with the old car?

Solid buy

 

[NavZ]

Which LEDs did you get for the lic plate.
Need a pair myself

Congrats,

I may sell the e46. Im first doing a little maintenance in the form of sump gasket replacement, LCAB, fixing scratches and seat occupancy sensor.

Bought at Racing Edge in Parow. Like R100 a pair. Just ask for the T10 park light bulbs that dont throw errors.

 

[Serg_ZA]

Nice buy. Love the looks of these hardtop z4's

 

[NitroNori]

Looks very good. The interior looks neat for its age. Enjoy

 

[ChrisBrand]

So have done a few minor things here and there.

Decided I liked girth more than length so went for the Sports Aerial.

Chicks dig it...

R477?

Menlyn Auto quoted me R583.....vultures....and I have only been loyal to them from the start.
Might have to start looking at using another dealer, even though they are further away from me.

Back on topic:
Looks good!

The guys at SMG Tygervalley always give me 20% discount.

Just ask next time that they do the same for you.

Congrats Chris, beautiful car. The 3.0si in manual is a real peach. If she gets treated anything like your E46, she's going to be immaculate.

Thanks very much for the kind words bud! Much appreciated

For the aerial you can go non-OEM for substantially cheaper - I've kept my OEM long aerial and just got a short one from China off of ebay for around 4 USD. Obviously it's slightly lower quality, but it's largely a part for appearance rather than actual usability.

Just for those still considering - I couldn't stomach spending R500 on a piece of wire with some rubber on it!
