In the past few years I have mostly contributed to BMW forums, well because I've had 4 BMWs, all of them ranging from mildly modded to extensively modded (96 328i Sedan, 98 M3 Cabrio, 04 M3 Cabrio, working currently on a 95 328 Coupe/540i transplant).

While working and building of course I attained a lot of useful information from these great forums (M3Forum, E46Fanatics, BimmerForums, etc.). What I also noticed about these forums is that many in their signatures post a ton of information on their current vehicle. Its actually a great source of information, whether its a OEM or aftermarket mod, anything from all-weather mats to turbochargers, its all listed. I know some might think its stupid to put, "painted reflectors" or something but its actually great to have because you can ask that person where they got them, how much, etc. Some guy might have a list of 5 things and another has 50, either or its nice to see. For example there were sometimes I wanted to get a review on a simple thing like the OEM Windscreen for the M3 and I quickly got an answer before going along with the purchase. The main point is just using resources and being able to get great feedback from members that have tons of info. At many points along the way I would get tons of questions from users new/old about certain things and I would be more than happy to answer their questions and give them an honest review, etc.

Well instead of having to list it on your signature I thought maybe it would be great to have people make a short post on all their mods and in turn supplying all the same kind of info. I know there is Track Mod List thread but this is just a thread to post anything you added to your after purchase or maybe even mods your received already with your cars... anything you consider upgrades.

 

My list is pretty short so far but here it goes:

2002 Porsche Turbo Coupe, Artic Silver/Black

Satin Black painted OEM Turbo Twist wheels with Silver pinstripe
Agency Power Intake Box
Greddy Blow-Off Valve 50/50 Recirc/Atmos, diverter valves annulled

heavychevy, when u get ur full GT2 decklid would u be interested in selling me ur GT2 add on? if so, send me a PM.
also, how do u like the H&R spacers? are they CNC machined? i'm looking to get a set for when the car is on the twists. and the GT2 clutch? i have mixed reviews with someone telling me that it was a little more aggressive for engagement than stock but others tell me it feels just as good as stock. with the addition of the 964RS LWFW does it feel on/off? i'm imagining its pretty smooth. i'm thinking about switching out the Spec, although I like it sometimes its a little annoying for daily driving

 

Yeah, the decklid and wing will be for sale, there is one guy ahead of you so I'll give him a little bit to respond, if he doesnt I'll let you know.

The H&R spacers are awesome, I have no idea if they are CNC'd or not, but they help the handling somewhat by widening the track and really make the wheels look better sitting flush with the body work. Mine are 17 mm all the way around for being able to run lots of negative camber so you may want something a little less aggressive.

As for the clutch and LWFW, I honestly cant tell the difference between the new setup and stock in driveability other than the rattle from the flywheel. I actually occasionally more before I had the new setup. And the speed in which the car revs is so much faster it's crazy. I had a spec 3+ in my corvette and loved it as well, but it's more on off than the sachs.

I like it to feel more sporty even on the street though, so you may be looking for something different.
