    Default 2015 spring/summer mod plans

    What do you have in store for your ride? Next season I'm mainly focusing on appearance and suspension.

    Getting a Triple R Lip
    Have my wheels on order
    Get coilovers/end links
    Want to wrap my roof
    And likely do intercooler.

    And then drive as much as I can next season and attend as many beyond meets/grey Eagles as I can

    2008 BMW M3 - Going to add methanol injection. Some 19" super deep concave forgestar F14s with some PSS's.

    2001 Audi S4 - Probably just add FMIC, piggie pipes and new y pipe. MAYBE Stage 3 depending on how things are going haha.

    Or the possibility of just selling both, moving to a B8 S4 for a couple years and enjoying the simplicity of owning 1 car..

    For local club events, you could probably ask for permission to run in HS with a short shifter, but as soon as you hit regional, national or U.S. events, that won't work.

    If you change wheel offset or width, not even local competitors will allow you to stay in HS.

    Ideally:
    Wrap roof black
    Put on roof rack for snowboards
    Possibly a LED light bar for when alone late in the mountains / going on the back country roads to my parents farm
    Exhaust to give it a nicer sound
    Add a small sub to round out the lower bass
    Look at getting a limited slip diff next year to make it even more of a winter monster. The TC isn't bad but you can definitely tell one wheel is trying to spin

    Depending on if a dealer will do the mountune upgrades and keep warranty maybe do their MP215 package or whatever its called

    I wonder if Shlade was asking for ST owners specifically lol.

    The Audi sounds like a fun car... Love those M3's.

    Doesn't matter to me I'd love to see what everyone's got cooking up their sleeve for next year!

    More likely going to pull a douche move and mount them on the roof.

    While not "road legal" I see moose / deer at least half the time going to my parents and there is never traffic on the road (maybe 1 car per hour) so for times like that I'd like to be able to see way better.

    What do you mean by a bar to extend out? Like out the front bumper? Can't see that looking good haha

    Whoops haha. I didn't even see that this was posted under the ST owners club. My bad.

    Shlade, the Audi is an absolute blast to drive. I enjoy driving it in the snow just as much as I enjoy driving the M3 on a sunny summer day.

    It's not silver by chance and lowered is it? Nice newer style Audi wheels?

    Also if mods want to move this to general car/bike talk to get some more people on board do it up

    It is silver with black RS4 style wheels, but it's my winter and daily driver so I have kept the ride height stock.

    Ah ok gotcha there's a nice silver one that's pretty low rolling around the south end of the city.

    What colours your m3? I know there's a bad ass one off south land by my buddy's dads place that's 4 door and sounds supercharged. Super loud exhaust always rips by when me and my buddy are around

    Ah nice, they are great cars when everything is working on them. Just a major pain to do any work on it as the 2.7L twin turbo engine is pretty cramped in there. It's a pretty small car for a 4 door.

    My M3 is matte blue! Here is a shot of it;

    I ended up wrapping the entire car over the winter last year. I've already started removing some of the vinyl that was damaged from rocks, etc and will be applying fresh vinyl on the hood, front bumper, passenger fender and drivers side quarter panel.

    Nice rims!

    Just pulled the trigger on some brembo slotted rotors and hawk hps pads yesterday, and have a set of upgraded valve springs on order as well.

    Still need new rubber all around, but as yet undecided on brand and size.
