So the Hack Engineering Billet brackets arrived, they are beautiful, make me really want to replace some interior parts with billet now...
Fitted those to the car which I actually decided a spacer needed to be added to the outside as the weight of the stock silencer looked like it was overstressing the polybush.
Whilst under the car I noticed a downside of powdercoating your OEM parts. As soon as they get dirty they look terrible, I now really regret not getting some nice photos of the underside when it was fresh... Even all the new BMW nuts and bolts already look old and its only been about a month.
If anyone reading this wants any E46 M3 parts, my current list of parts that I have to sell are:
Passenger side front knuckle with brand new bearing installed
Passenger side front knuckle no bearing
Brand new BMW Trailing arm bushes (and bolt/nut)
Rear subframe
Front subframe
Rear Upper arm (both sides)
Rear anti roll bar
Rear trailing arms (both sides)
Stock M3 radiator (nothing wrong with it, just installed the Mishi one)
3x OEM front wheels (8j), two silver one black
2x brand new Kenda KR20 224/45/18 (still stickered)
Will be throwing all this stuff on ebay soon so message if you want something
The good news is there isn't much left that needs to be done to the car now. Just need to get the handbrake bracket fitted, have someone make up the AN lines and then the car is ready to be used at as many drift and track days as I can get to...
Current list of jobs to do:
1. Fit Dual Caliper System
2. Figure out why my boot and battery tray are constantly filling up with water...
