Hmmmm ... I will check on them and see how, though I am sure they aren't replicas. Thanks!
Oh noooo ... another additional mod to think about then. Recommendations? :sneaky:

Thanks guys! Photography's another side hobby of mine, but I'm still learning the ropes when it comes to shooting cars.
That's like 5 people saying that I should lower it ... oh God help me. Any recommendations?
Meanwhile, stay tuned for more to come this Saturday. I'm bringing her to get her better stopping power hahaha

Tintin if those are original breytons means they really got very poor qc because I have changed rim countless times haven't seen so much balancers on one rim in my life..
U will be surprised when u see those japanese wheels.. Especially like volk racings .. They are usually alot easier to balance
Just my 2 cents

Perhaps drop by 1.5 finger gap.......or 15mm.
That's quite 'Normal' as M-sports suspension drops 10~15mm.

Thx. Hmmnn.. that sounds like a very nice height actually. I can't bear to lower until have to crawl over humps. Alamak.. now I am tempted.
Tintin - pls share with us results of your investigations ok?

Thanks dude! Next meetup!
Thanks Sam! Don't do this to me leh - I'd orignally had a whole list of mods planned for her, but lowering was not on the list. Now that you guys are saying that a little bit of lowering wouldn't hurt ... I'm really reconsidering. Any recommendations? 30mm and 25mm rear? Meaning?

Nothing changes the car's exterior more than a suspension drop and correctly fitted big rims!
I feel that you can drop by 30mm front and 25mm rear. Eliminate the wheel gap!
Example:
Poison poison!

Clearwater is Anna's. Mine is sapphire black, got it last year already. Still sourcing for the shoes leh, looking around, but think our ride not much choices. Would like to consider BBS also.
The Performance brakes... sigh... felt like kanna cheated. Well, for the good part of it, it really does looks good and of course, good braking power. When I was considering to buy it at the POJ promo, the part sales guy was telling me it will be 6-pot in front with the pheonix yellow caliper and 2-pot at the back with smaller pheonix yellow caliper. All will has new disc, with the front being grooved. I felt the price was good for the things we are getting and considering they are Brembo actually.
When I collect my ride, i was like "errr"... something is missing ! The back brakes doesn't come with the Pheonix Yellow caliper ! I approach the parts department, then they said the back brakes are un-painted, i.e. similar to the stock. Then they show me the parts details, and it stated that for 125i the back is normal performance brakes, but its still better than the original stock, only the 135i will come with the 2-pot pheonix yellow caliper. They said that 125i do not need such high stopping power.
Apparently, the parts sales guy did not give me the correct info
Tintin;452947 said:Thanks dude! Yes do consider the GTS-Rs, they're real pretty.
Your ride's Clearwater Blue right? You might wanna consider the gunmetal version - they'll lend a nice contrast to your ride. Get 'em from Zane over at Coco, nice and accomodating folks.
PM me when you are ready for new shoes, I wanna come along heheheh.
Post pics of your Performance BBK pls ... I kinda regretted not installing them during the POJ Promotion - bloody good price for 6-pot front and 4-pot rear.

actually i didnt even consider mine when i complimented yours and i sincerely mean its NICE, bro. you have done a good job polishing putting in nice shoes. you could install coilovers and adjust it down gradually in stages to clear the necessary humps and bumps on the road without damaging the front. the other guys are right to point out bimmer front are easier to clear than other cars. but, a good rule of thumb for the e82 would be 4inches from ground on the outer most front lower lip. next wk the rear spoiler would be ready for you to claim it. best is thursday or friday.
