Got a feeling it will be a real looker and drive better than BMW version as Toyota seem to making a much bigger effort with the platform.

Just a tune will likely see them close or above 500hp on launch assuming they're using the S55.

The development 435i at work is seeing an 80hp/100ft-lbs increase over stock with just a tune. Should find out what the M3 does in the next couple of weeks

Need some new brakes up front on the Clio and get more track days done now I've got other financial expenses out of theway and can start enjoying myself again. There's a SC kit being developed which I've got my eye on but realisticaly I just want more seat time above all else to rekindle my interest in the car.

‘Possibly’ trade my 15 plate GTR for an 18 plate?

But more likely buy a Porsche for the wife who’s been wanting one for a while now

Sort the valve stem seals
Transmission rebuild
Coilovers
Suspension bushes
Better speakers

Spend too much money I think is the general plan.

Looking at getting into a Pagani Zonda if I can leverage some of the equity in the 5 Series.

But will you daily it?
And how will you beat the depreciation?
Black alloys?

Looking at Audi S8+'s, as someone needs to be alpha for the cause, to offset people with banana coloured interiors.

People will fear my black on black on black, with extra black.

Enter my 5th year of ownership of my 325ti Sport. Got an M54B30 that I am going to fit M52 piston rings to and refresh all seals etc and do the swap when the weather gets better.

Coilovers

!?!

It's a 650i Cab not a Saxo VTR! :eek:

Trappi$t · 25 Dec 2018 at 21:44

Most shocks are "coilovers" unless you have air suspension, such an annoying term, totally mis-used.
