Road Racing. hmm its a long list..


Ill take out front and rear seats, re carpet the interior and put in racing seats with harnesses. visually the car will get black bmw wheels and tinted windows as well as maybe black grilling, new head and tail lights. the susp. will get switched on all four wheels. ill also hook it up with strut bars and x-braces. it will get the usual CAI, new downpipe and headers ( it already has a stainless cat back - Top Speed model ) and an asortment of small motor mods ( new ecu, injectors, plugs, the usual ) ill also put in a short shifter and at least a racing clutch. im sure there is stuff that im missing but for now that all i can think of. oh and some CF parts for fun

oh and remmy, the tt got sold for a truck i needed for work so after the lovely cold months im back with a new project

i have an aftermarket ECU on my 5 series, and it seemed to make quite a bit of difference, as did the new clutch.

190k. but about 50k were made from a lady who was doing out of state work weekly so the motor is still real strong.

and im not sure about clubs or class yet. i might just only do open track days for a while till i have more time and the car is farther along.
