This is a fantastic setup for aggressive driving, HPDE and club racing, it provides a ton of weight loss and much better cooling.



Yes we use the M3 front control arms in the car. There are quite a few swapped over parts from other BMW models that really make the 128i come to life. It's a fantastic little car!

If you guys have any questions at all, feel free to ask or send me an e-mail and I'll respond as quickly as I can.

Car looks great Joey!.
Its nice that alot of the modifications ( brakes, exhaust, m3 parts) are what we are all slowly doing to the 128i's here


If you can explain to us how the oil cooler is attached to the car. I've read that the n54 335i oil filter housing can be used and any n54 oil cooler set up.


I'll email you in a few days regarding the rotors.
I did discover that the 130i used 330i rotors with the 128i caliper, so I hope this confirms what i found.
