Not having a garage really destroys your paint.

Sonic Tuning | New AP Racing FORGED Radi-Cal Brake Systems! | Special Intro Pricing







AP Racing, the leading manufacturer of performance braking and clutch systems, for road and race use, has created a new range of Radi-CAL™ brake calipers, which incorporate race technology into high-performance road products. AP Racing's Radi-CAL racing calipers have taken the racing world by storm, dominating the highest level racing series on every continent.



The pressure forging process results in a strong, stiff caliper that is 20% lighter than similar cast calipers. Each caliper has been tested with over 500,000 cycles of pressure and torque to meet AP's stringent quality standard. The non-symmetric design is the result of Finite Element Analysis testing to determine where weight saving can be achieved without compromising strength and stiffness. Radi-CAL calipers are double sealed for durability. Hard anodized aluminum pistons are differentially sized to maximize pad life. A removable forged Bridge allows for easy pad changes. Anti-rattle springs prevent pad movement and knock back.



Available as six and four-pot front calipers, as well as a four-pot rear caliper, the new range of Radi-CAL™ products distil the company’s expertise in producing brake systems for race and OEM installations, into calipers suitable for the aftermarket. As a result Radi-CAL™ delivers an advanced brake upgrade for the owners of high performance and sportscars.



Featuring a two-piece aluminium body and h-piece, the forged non-symmetrical calipers offer a significant reduction in mass compared to conventional designs, and improved efficiency when resisting the torque generated by braking. This not only lowers a vehicle’s un-sprung weight, but also ensures continued high performance in demanding applications.



AP Racing’s advanced design process allows the concept to minimise structure and weight, while improving caliper cooling surface area, without sacrificing rigidity. This provides improved brake caliper cooling and reduces disc temperatures during high performance driving.



The Radi-CAL(tm) calipers feature a highly durable paint finish featuring the distinctive new Radi-CAL(tm) logo, and available separately or with matching performance road-car discs and pads for specific customer requests. The Radi-CAL(tm) Factory Big Brake kits incorporate floating two-piece disc assemblies, and include bespoke mounting bracket and bolts, a braided hose kit and DOT 5.1 high temperature brake fluid.

:: ECS Tuning :: N54 Boost Solenoids|Bring Boost Back






The BMW N54 engine relies heavily on adequate boost pressure to make its impressive power figures. Without a properly functioning boost/vacuum system, power loss, acceleration hesitation, and decreased fuel economy are all likely consequences.



For this particular engine, a common source of boost leaks is the boost solenoid, oftentimes bleeding off pressure so badly that the car struggles to accelerate.



ECS offers genuine OEM and Pierburg Boost Solenoid/Pressure Converters for the E89 Z4 35i/35is, swiftly taking care of this grisly prospect.

DFW Fender rolling/shaving?

I'm in dallas and need my rear fenders on my e92 335i shaved, don't know anyone or place that can do it.



I'm not sure that rolling would be efficient enough because of the rubber lining inside the lip itself that needs to be rolled.




E92 M3 DCT not automatically downshifting in D?

Hey all,



I've been having some troubles for a while with sporadic downshift issues when I'm driving in automatic. This usually happens when I commute to work on the highway.



Current scenario:

  • I'm driving down the highway doing 60mph, D (which chose 7th gear), S-4

  • Need to pass a car

  • Press down on the accelerator (note: not all the way down till it "clicks" and shift to 3rd)

  • Car stays in gear and surges slowly forward




Expected scenario:

  • I'm driving down the highway doing 60mph, D (which chose 7th gear), S-4

  • Need to pass a car

  • Press down on the accelerator (note: not all the way down till it "clicks" and shift to 3rd)

  • Car downshifts to the appropriate gear (3 or 4) and takes off faster




Here are some videos I took for the shop

  • 2014-06-24 09.15.50:


  • 2014-06-22 09.23.44:


  • 2014-06-24 09.15.50:







It has always downshifted on acceleration in the past, and this shifting behavior sporadically changed into now no downshifting at all. Because the downshifting didn't work, I almost got into an accident yesterday because the car did not accelerate quickly enough out of dangerous situation -- it refused to downshift upon pushing the accelerator pedal down.



The shop thought it might've been the steering alignment sensor, but resetting this did nothing.



Any thoughts?



Cheers,

Dennis




Mod a 335 or get an M2

Would you spend $5000 on mods to an e90 335i xdrive or wait and put the money towards an M2 in a few years?



Curious what others thoughts are. For me the mods would be tune, FMIC, Perf Exhaust, suspension, maybe few small things later. There are somethings that one just really can't get unless it is an M car (interiors, colors, etc.) and those mods would be more than I am interested in doing. Of course we don't know exactly what the M2 will get as options yet.



I also go back and forth with the AWD chassis.

Small collection of photos I took of my car this year.

I know there are many talented photographers on this forum so I wanted to get some feedback! Hopefully I can find the time to practice some more and add to this collection.































It sounds phenomenal! (Review by Motorweek)
