    Just another M3, this time with a V8.

    I really should take more pictures of the front end.. Thought I’d do an oil change on it as it was 6 months ago and 5,000ish miles. This stuff looks like strawberry sauce.. but it’s made the V8 a lot smoother and I’m not entirely sure it’s a placebo either. Felt less lumpy on idle which is...

    Unimpressed by 182, what do you love about it?

    I can’t fathom how someone can drive a 172/182 and not get out of it smiling ear to ear. Smiles per mile... The best car on the used market.

    Rear dampers are back from Nitron for the second time, “as new refurbishment” under warranty. treated them to some anti rust coating and I ceramic coated the springs, taking no chances this time!! Got time to fit the new undertray that was laser cut by my mate, half the price of the other...

    My Petrol blue 182

    Ahhh!! I almost bought this 182, the advert on eBay was utterly shocking. Glad it’s turned out well for you. Look forward to seeing more of it.

    106 turbo winter project

    Enjoyed reading this, goes to show how butchered a car can get in the wrong hands. Glad you’ve rectified 95% of the issues and it looks fantastic now!

    Rollcage + finishing touches 80% complete. Rear seat false floor to make from my template. Rear dampers have been messed about by Nitron so they’ve been sent back today to be re done again. Im happy with the fitment, I’ve put most things back together. Got to try and shoehorn my...

    A couple of fancy photos from an independent photographer at Snetterton. Cheaper and better than the TDO’s own offerings...

    Just another M3, this time with a V8.

    Had to send off the rear dampers back to Nitron for some warranty work, meant the entire rear of the car had to come apart. I decided to take the rear seatbelts out, all sound deadening and any extra bits that I didn’t want. When I initially fitted the Nitrons I was in a bit of a rush to...

    Have a look at wind tunnel testing on youtube, massive difference I felt. Front end wanted to dart everywhere. Rear wing made a lot of difference but I also lost 5mph on the back straight when I set it more aggressive. Could possibly shave another secondoff just by reducing the wing angle again...

    Got told off early doors for my GoPro on my helmet, shouldn’t be a problem once the cage is in as it’ll be hardwired in there and vbox are releasing something new soon that looks promising for footage. Halfords wing and the canards are working perfectly, very happy with them.

    Snetterton 300 1/3/20 Arrived early ish, weather was forecast as rain up until the night before the trackday so I didn’t think I’d get any use out of the slicks. Slicks on, Nitrons dialled up well beyond my Nurburgring settings and some testing happened. Had a great day out with some...

    Should be able to last 6-8 weeks without even being ran. It’s the IBS system on the E92 that’s causing the issue. battery manufacturer has an E92 in for testing over the weekend so hopefully I get an answer. I’ve reverted back to standard battery for Snetterton.
