Shoulda gotten the Eldors coils. Better quality I believe. I got the same kit from FCP with the Eldors.

Not for a 128i. The Delphi coils are the latest iteration of the part for our cars.

Extensive testing of all the coil options hasn't shown a difference or need for anything else. wish I could link to the forum where the data is.

Having data would be nice. So far, most of the info has been anecdotal and indicating that the Delphi coils are the best choice for the N52.

Got some FZ-201M's in 255/35/18 for my rear wheels.
Attachment 2394742 Attachment 2394743 Initial thoughts are that these are amazing in the dry. I can now put down power in 1st-2nd gear. Definitely transform the car. Last edited by JM98; 03-05-2021 at 08:46 PM.. |

I received another headlight today. Slightly different style. P/N 63117170294
Once I get a few sets of these and actually figure out what's what I'll sell them.

I still have an anti-trap error that I can't clear, so I'm hoping this will fix it. New VO has taken, but still have an error on the cluster. EDIT: It did work. Warning in cluster is gone!!! Officially done with the sunroof delete after two years

Finished my brakes. F30 front calipers and rotors and E90 328i rear calipers. I also swapped over to Motul RBF 600 fluid. The rear rotors required a hand brake adjustment but that was simple and feels a lot better now anyway. It was getting a bit loose.
The pedal travel even after bedding is going to take some getting used to. It's pretty long. It has to be from the increased volume requirements of the new calipers both front and rear. I think the Zimmerman Zcoat is probably clogging up the pad a bit so I'll probably rebed in another month. Going to try coding and the ABS bleed some time soon to see if that helps anything but you can't really get around the physics of a slightly undersized master cylinder. Might get a 135i MS.

Far left is 1x halogen for the two rings. On right with the pressure tangs is the D1S xenon. Never knew what the middle was, either way, moderately unimportant.

Whiteline rear subframe bushings done! This was actually really easy, and took just over 4 hours. I just picked up a bushing removal tool on eBay for $67.50, and followed syenisch's instructions. (https://www.1addicts.com/forums/show...an+alternative)
I may have just gotten lucky, but my bushings came straight out very easily without heat or lubrication. I haven't had a chance to go for a drive yet though - have to turn to on the wife's list first. |

The larger piston is exclusively for the fronts, look at the system diagrams on TIS. I actually had a discussion about that with someone else in another thread.

Not how that works. Google take-up cylinder. The take up cylinder may only effect the front, but the "working area" is still only 22mm or whatever.
