swear to god, if my wife ever found out how much i’ve spent on this so far, not even what it’s going to cost total, she’d cry for days. I feel like i’m covering up an affair.

I know your pain I just priced out a full suspension rebuild for my M3 complete with coilovers, sway bars, camber plates/arms, reinforcement plates, rtab limiters, and rebuild-able rear shock mounts. All told my bill for just parts was like $7000 I’m guessing another $3k just for the install.

Can’t wait to see the rest of the build, good luck!

Thanks bro, you too! What are you using for coil overs?

My mechanic thinks I should go straight to a Bilstein pss10 kit. I think it’s overkill because I currently DD the car, but I really want to start doing autoX and HPDE’s and get a beater DD.

This post and a car Turner Motorsport posted on Instagram makes me want to stroke my S54!

Check out ground control for coil overs too, and don’t worry about making more power until you can use all of what you already have.

Yeah I’m tackling some preventative maintenance this fall by switching all my VANOS components to Beisan upgrades.

Power isn’t important to me. I would like my car to be a little louder so I was going to upgrade the exhaust in the spring, as a sort of treat to myself.
