my 2013

tec333 · 10-23-2016, 11:44 PM

Finally time to start with the real mods:

Plans for:

DP, flash tune (after reading #eddybro's thread probably going with BPM), MSR or RK intake, front sway bar, steel brake lines, maybe paint the calipers, CF shift knob, steering wheel, coding.

So far: (mostly cosmetic)

wheels, KWV3, 3D style front side and rear, black grill, white reflector, black side grills and door vinyl wrap, wrapped interior trim with CF vinyl.

BTW the wheels are not actually that bright and gold...even more so when there is brake dust. Its actually the perfect shade when they are dirty with brake dust which is awesome coz i dont have to clean them all the time LOL

Great man congrats!

Tune, downpipes and coding, Your going to love it.

I just got back from ShiftS3ctor this weekend.

The results were amazing..

Glad to help. Looking forward to seeing your progress.

Btw we will be at No Fly Zone Nov 5th if you want to participate or stop by to check out the action.

Any spacers on the wheels?

mike@x-ph.com · 10-24-2016, 02:14 PM

Stunning car!

M5Beast_NYC · 10-24-2016, 02:20 PM

Nice setup! Can you post specs on the wheels? and the color finish? I was thinking of going Bronze but that looks pretty good.

The BBS FI-R is one of the few wheels im highly considering as well... other than the brixton wheels.

Thanks all!

5mm spacers up front and 12 mm in the back. Offset on wheels I believe are ET22 for front and ET34 for rear (without the spacers).

Tires are stock 265/35 front 295/30 rear. Its about half a finger gap on tires to fender right now...I might drop it some more but I might go 305's in the rear first so I can figure out final ride height.

Finish is satin brushed bronze...

Yah I saw your post! Great results especially since you did run after run with no issues!

You definitely convinced me on which route to go!

Regarding color its really hard to capture on pic what they really look like. They change color depending on light and angle. Also depends on how dirty they are with brake dust

I actually love the color when they are dirty with brake dust - they are a little darker.

I posted these pics on the "random pic thread" but it got buried so here you go.

I'm in the process of installing my kw V3, do you mind sharing your settings? and How's the ride? Thanks

Car looks goods

Right now - I'm out of the box settings. The ride is amazing! I would start with that and then adjust it after you have gotten used to them and see what you want to do depending on your roads there and tolerance for "smoothnes" and bumpier ride. I'm actually thinking of going a little stiffer and was asking for feedback from another thread but seems most just use out of the box settings.

I think for now I will leave my settings and do a CP sway bar first then decide if i'm going to adjust them.

tec333 · 11-10-2016, 01:41 AM

Had the car lowered another 1/4 inch. I'll post pics when I get a chance. A little rubbing on the front but very slight and I think the plastic on the fender wall it's hitting thinned out and I should be OK now.

I also went 2 clicks stiffer on KW's both dampening and rebound. When I go from 265/295 tires to 275/305 or even 285/315 - I will definitely need to raise it up again.
