I would agree with the above some m3 parts are not huge upgrades. Like the subframe bushings or diff for example.
So you are saying upgrading subframe bushings and diff bushings are not huge upgrades or am i misreading it?

I'm saying the m3 bushings in those locations are not a huge upgrade.

I would suggest solid aluminum subframe bushings like the new m3 and as stiff as you can go in the diff and not get whine assuming you hate diff whine. A diff brace is small money so throw one of those in as well.

For the OP his budget will determine the best course of modifications.

I got them from Bimmerworld... used my $100 off coupon so it ended up being way cheaper than even poly bushings lol
