Correct me if I’m wrong. The F30 has a lower starting weight than the F32, despite having two more doors. If so, why did you guys choose the F32 over the F30?
Going into park is a safety function for when the driver jumps out of the vehicle with the door open. If you can trigger door closed it should stay in drive.
Airbag module has a yaw sensor that dsc references. I know they added a dsc sensor on some vehicles a wiring diagram would be able to tell you a lot. I wonder if you can Eysis a lot of those functions out of the vehicle.
This project is rolling right along and we are excited to get it on track later this year. Do you think we'll be able to achieve a sub 3,000lbs race weight? Stay tuned!
Excellent video. Best explanation of this system that I have seen. Really wish I knew about this before our stock M2 Comp jumped timing due to a missed shift but seeing this design it’s not at all surprising. Going with the SSR 4 pin while it’s apart being re-timed. A friction fit timing sprocket BMW? Really? Too cheap to put in a $5 key??
Thanks Phil and James! I took my G87 out at an SCCA TT at Summit Main running a 1:20.6 It was one time as the stock tires overheated and I had the exact same observation with the brake pads/fluid. Lack of confidence as it was not constant. Same with the suspension (taking a set, patience…). Since then I ordered the CSL hubs and the Zunsport covers from you guys (Thank you!). Great observations, documenting the obvious. James remains a beast! Like fine wine gets faster with age. Incredible lap.
Cool video! Fun to see the progress on track. I liked the data analysis also. As a g87 owner, would be cool to see a camber plate install video. I noticed the damper completely removed and maybe the bump stops modified?
Best video has down on documenting stock config and its potential with the parts installed. Can’t wait to see this thing continue to slash lap times. 💪
Very simply presented with logical explanation. I am about to put spacers on my Mazda Mx5 ND2 for daily driving (no tracking intended ever). But I will go for sure for top of the range spacers. Price is not an issue when your life depends on it.
That is our brand new BimmerWorld Forged TA55 in Trophy Gold. They are officially being released VERY soon, probably early July. We'll definitely have videos on it when they go public. We just did a test day with our G87 M2 with them wrapped in Hoosiers and they were a big hit on the white G87 as well.
I am on a Stage 2 map in a 112k BMW M4. Granted, I may be one of the lucky ones, but haven't had any issues yet for at least 20k miles since the car has been tuned. Now just because I haven't had an issue, doesn't mean you will. If you have the money, GET IT DONE.
Going to follow this closely, Especially your approach to suspension. I currently have some Eibach springs to clean things up and hold me over, but this is my daily and starting next year quarterly track car haha. Currently running most of Verus Engineering aero parts, just need to pick up the front splitter and skirts.
We have our first track day with the car coming up in a few weeks and that will give us our baseline on the stock suspension. After that we'll dive right in and start playing with some suspension options so you'll definitely see some G87 suspension tech headed your way soon - be sure to subscribe if you haven't already so you don't miss any of it!
Not a concern at all, the mesh is tight enough to keep debris out, but still plenty of open space to allow for airflow and cooling to be unchanged. Honestly cooling is not even a slight concern while adding these. Our racecars get an even tighter mesh applied to the front of the coolers for protection and they too have zero cooling issues.
@@BimmerWorldMedia I've seen lots of examples when people had issues due to the mesh installed on different cars. Maybe it's not a problem in this particular case, but it's still worth to keep it in mind.
