^beaten. I'd go orange lip.

Awesome, quick, do more videos. Very entertaining to watch. Looks like the duct tape/passenger seat combo worked well!

Oooooooooooh, don't suppose the track is available for download or something? I'd love to give it a go. If it's yours...I'll swap ya a E30 ac compressor for it Was that the computer driving? Or do you possess the mad killer B skillz?

Oops, didn't see the thread in time. At least you've gotten rid of them We build one of these each year, then we go do battle with the other teams around the world.

I want them backkk lol. They're hot wheels! Have absolutely no use for them though haha...though, they might fit my new shaven calipers..

Was off trademe, VW wrecker. Was $90+gst...somewhat expensive

Just back from driving the car with new BMC setup and new pads. Wicked. Stops/feels better than the E46. I can't get over how much win there is. Car is probably now setup for twice the power it has haha. Pics and a clean to come...once cert plate arrives...(one day)

I'm definitely not cool. My steering wheel is the most un-dished wheel...ever. Car looks good Nathan

Lotus have a hemp composite car, and there's research into using flax fibre instead of carbon? Perhaps there was some research into his design

I also. Have wondered about turning some aluminium with a urethane sandwiche with an allthread holding it together?. Would be a fairly simple job on the lathe + drill.

If they're genuine 57sx-Pro's they're a one piece coated in titanium - 81,000 per wheel! Discolouration is not forced like the copies. 57S-Pro's are 79,000yen + 20,000yen for the Ti coating!! I think they look silly.

The F:SAE team would probably appreciate a couple of copies of the car ones if they're still available?

Sure did. I got pwned.

Dear Bimmersport, Please buy this before I am able to. Kind Regards, JiB

Like I said in the other thread, you could even go for 1.5-2deg camber and bulk up with the castor - best of both worlds.

I think the issue with excessive camber is not so much the tyre wear (that's just a $$$ issue) but excessive camber reduces the contact patch in a straight line - most pertinent under braking - which is probably more of an issue at the track. But I guess with 16x9 you don't have a choice? I guess getting a wheel that fits properly is out of the question?

Lol, I must be! But here's mine on a sunnier day. See I'm not totally bonkers. Let us know what colour the strut tower says

If it's driftit's 325i, I swear it's the same colour. Gunmetal with a bit of green in it. It's a pimp colour, I got sick of it at first, but it's definitely grown on me! "Dolphin Metallic"

Yes, 195/65R14, 205/50R16 and 225/45R16's are the same rolling diameter +/- 0.4%

Welcome to 300,000km+ 2.5L delphin metallic PFL E30 coupe ownership Nice to see my car's twin go to good hands Muchos jealous of tech1 wing!

Go for max castor. And you can probably run about 2deg camber. I've got 2.5deg and it's too much. Borderline alright with R888's, but definitely too much with street rubber.

I really hated having to cross speed bumps in my old car. I felt like such a berk. Oh, if only I knew it was the cool thing to do Anyone want "turn off your foglights, you don't need them" stickers?

Hellz yeah. Hey Henry, could you post up a close up picture of your front quarter? I'm wondering if the trim at the ends of the front bumper are any different to normal PFL. (This is so I can put my tech1 on without duct tape )

I think 205/50R16's would be awesome. 7.5 is the max wheel width for 205's and E30's don't make much torque or power to need anything wider

Hmm, I can see the cage stopping longitudal (sp?) movement and some lateral, but the tops of the strut is unaffected?
