Re: Hub centric rims
Hi Robert,
Lets talk about street driving. Have a look at this and tell me if it is not to the extend of Danger.

The one thing that Motorsport and Street driving have in common in regards to running non hub...
Re: 2012 GTR shaves 6secs off 'Ring time'. 0-60 in 2.9seconds!
The R35 GTR temp info was provided by a local dealer as I was in the market for the GTR and brought up the matter based on hearsay within the community. The dealer principal check with Service later confirmed that a particular...
Re: Hub centric rims
Which is why it is crucial for people to do a bit of homework rather than pay the money and hope that every workshop in Singapore knows what they are doing.
There is nothing wrong in using hub rings as long as you remember to put them on. If possible go with metal...
Re: Hub centric rims
I would go with rims that don't require the use of hub rings to fit.
I do a fair bit of competitive events and probably switch between street and semi slick tyres/rims few hundred times a year. I do not want to run into a situation where I have forgotten to put on the...
Re: 2012 GTR shaves 6secs off 'Ring time'. 0-60 in 2.9seconds!
R35 GTR in Australian 33 deg ambient air temp. 15 laps consecutively. Engine oil temp 150 deg. Instant warranty void (2009)
F458, ambient air temp give or take 2 deg variance. 11 laps consecutively, engine oil temp 84 deg...
Re: Kreissieg BMW M3 exhaust
I quite like the sound of this but I'm not sure if my neighbours will. X-Pipe makes a lot of difference depending if they have resonators.

Re: Could it be a TP catching speeding cars?
If you're doing 80 in a 70, after factor in speedo inaccuracy, fingers crossed, you might be within the grace limits.
You guys are lucky to receive empty angbaos within 1 week.
In Western Australia if you're lucky you get one in 6 months or more...
Re: Help needed: E85 FTM light
Did the workshop transfer your TPMS from old to new rims ?
If yes, you need to reset via iDrive (Under Settings) or press the reset button and hold. Right after you reset, you'll need to go for a short drive for the system to learn.
If any E46 M3 owners are keen, VAC Motorsports released a M3 CSL Replica Airbox.
Few years ago I was contemplating on getting a genuine CSL airbox. Total cost including labour was slightly over $15,000SGD.
Before people start asking about Horsepower gain, I think we can all agree that...
Re: Help! Whistling noise from E90
On my E46 M3, BMW has a Fiction Modifier diff oil to solve the problem. Took about 1 week for the FM oil to run in and sound dissipated.
However if its a mechanical problem with the rear diff, no amount of FM oil will mask problem.
You could also go to a...
Re: rear wheel drive, can you actually feel the difference?
AWD shines in track layouts that are "point and shoot". This mainly involves a lot of 2nd and 3rd gear corners.
Some of the tarmac rallys that I competed in sees that open wheelers are nowhere close to AWD laptimes. On such...
Re: Caution when going for PDR
I've used PDR on my rear right quarter panel on my E92 M3. Paint is still original from factory.
The guy didn't bother putting any tape. He applied adhesive directly onto the paint and stuck a suction cap. While not a 100% fix, I would say 80% of the dent was...
Just want to give all E46 M3 owners a heads up.
Do check your SMG reservoir and High Pressure Power steering hose periodically.
Recently sold my E46 M3 in Australia. A basic mechanical check reviewed that the SMG Feed pipe was leaking SMG hydraulic fluid (Pentosin CHF 11S ?). Reservoir...
Re: How many of you thinking of switching to Mercedes
Anyone test driven the CLK63 AMG ?
The Black Series interior is pretty comparable to the CSL but damn the premium is high.
Re: How many of you thinking of switching to Mercedes
I'll have the say the only car I've considered from Merc is the C63 AMG.
The looks and styling are more aggressive than the M3. The exhaust note is unbeatable for a stock exhaust and the HP it puts out is phenomenal.
But the...
Re: New NSX ?
I'm praying hard that there is a clause some where that states that the car must be in mass or limited production to consumer market in order to compete.
This should force them to present us with a road-going version. :)
So it seems like Honda will be competing in JGTC with a new car HSV-010 GT.
Could this be the new NSX ?
Had the youtube clip been an audio, I would have mistaken it to be an F1 car.
Does JGTC regulations dictate a car must be in mass production in order for them to compete in the Super GT...
