335d Suspension Upgrade Results (Suspension Forum)
Hi Diesel Lovers,
As some know, I recently had some major suspension upgrade work done. I plan to post a two or three-part commentary on the results in the suspension and brakes forum. This is for those who are interested and never visit that forum.

I would definitely like to see your write up. BTW if you are willing to share, what was the total cost? Part & labor?

Lol. DFan basically now has an upgraded m3 suspension (including lsd) on the diesel. Money well spent!
For reference... http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=817922 It helps to post a link. Post pictures of all the mods in the thread & people will begin to comment. Pics=instant gratification. |

Congrats on being a grandpa. If the D is getting so spoiled, I can only imagine what the little one will be getting.

Either way, don't forget the roughly 2.4k in m3 bits and bushings. . Fun adds up fast.
CONGRATS ON THE NEW ADDITION TO THE DFAN FAMILY, SIR!!! Are we expecting a spoiled grandson or spoiled granddaughter? Ps. Don't forget, most of us are into car mechanics geek porn. |

Isn't riding in the spoiled 335d spoiling in and of itself?
My dad and i said the same thing about not spoiling my daughter...then we were reminded that grandma shares his bank account.... inevitable I suppose. Again, congrats! We'll have to get a Congrats Grandpa dFan meet together when you get back so you can show off the new mods. |

dFan, want to pick a HPDE and we'll both sign up (I'll be your "bring a friend")? I wouldn't mind having a diesel brother on the track with me for my first HPDE (and I'd love to be left in the dust around & out of the bends by your newly-upgraded ride). I was thinking Summit Point in May, but did you mention that there was something else happening in April?
