On the inside, I installed a mp3 frontloader with sd card and usb inputs, new steering whell, upgraded to e46 front seats and replaced the rear speakers. On the outside, I installed a rear bumper diffusor, upgraded to clear lenses all round, debadged and today I am picking up my new wheels. Future plans ( january) includes fitment of the bootspoiler, and maybe the M front bumper. Under the bonnet, I have fitted a new engine. ( this does not count as a mod, but it put a serious damper on the budget.

Clutch, how come you only got 50hp from the stickers? I take it they must be in Lower case..

speak to your supplier man, they should be yeilding gains north of 75hp at least (in cold weather)

IMHO the MZ3 shifter is a bit overkill, you also have to bend the shift linkage to prevent it from touching the guibo

Is there a difference between the shift lever of the Z3 and the MZ3?
