E36 M3 GT Imola Individual - No. 01/50
Some pictures of the bits I have been doing to my M3, there may be some random comments etc as I copied the pictures from another thread.....
Sorry for so many pictures!
After a long wait to buy one, I lifted my GTII.
The car needs very very little, back bumper is a shade off, and a small mark on the boot lid.
Car drives and pulls 100%, no rattles at all so I'm very happy!
The M3 currently has Eibach springs, 850i Brembos, E46 Front Discs, Stainless Brake Hoses, Polybushes . . .
Excuse the crap pics, left it until it was getting dark and hadn't washed or polished it.
Some parts sitting ready for it . . .
Front USDM number plate delete (pretty pointless really lol)
Straight through stainless steel exhaust, I have bought and sold a few and settled on this one
Badge
I was going to try an e30 evo sport gurney flap,but I have now got peak performance e36 ones
K&N
OEM Rear Sunblind
E46 M3 3.62 Diff Crown Wheel & Pinion
Cruise Control Stalk (I'll gather up the actuators etc for a retrofit)
Z3 Rear Strut Reinforcement Plates
Spare First Aid Kit
The M3 GTII as standard comes with a good few OEM upgrades such as;
- Electric Seats
- Electric Rear Windows
- Electric One Touch Sunroof
- Polished Motorsports
- Side Airbags
- HK Sound System
- Illuminated Gearknob
- Red Stitched Steering Wheel & Handbrake
- Class II Spoilers
- Front Cornet Splitters
- Interior / Exterior in Imola Red
There is probably more that I missed.
OEM upgrades that I want (so far)
- Aero Package (Gurney Flaps)
- Front GT Splitter
- GT Strut Brace
- Euro GT / Class II Plaque (Without the c/f insert)
- Heated Seats
- Cruise Control
- Parking Distance Control
- Fire Extinguisher
- Red Tabs on Steering Wheel
- Headlight Washers
- Alloy Doors (Don't know if I would be bothered changing from originals though)
Plans are to add a few more OEM optional extras, with mods like a Z3m shifter, z3 rack, x brace . . .
Future plans will then be cams, carbon plenum and alpha n!
I fitted Peak Performance Gurney Flaps.
They are smaller than the OEM ones, and made from rubber.First off I bent them into shape as the spoiler is curved (and they curved the other way).
I tried to measure them, but there is nowhere to measure from so I made a guess lol, please don't tell me if they are over to one side!
When I was lining them up I wasn't sure whether thy would be nice, but I do like the look of them fitted!
Old & New Exhaust
Some underneath pics, nothing really exciting . . .
Some the brembos, not a lot of clearance
Exhaust on
PDC Kit
I ever so slightly cut thought the sensor loom when opening the packet! the corner inserts are from a compact so I will have to buy some coupe ones.
The original M3 GT badge has arrived, these aren't available anymore. This one came from France thanks to a e36coupe member
Compared to the replica one I had, the replica is metal and better quality that the OEM ones! (OEM is the small one)
Boring stuff, but may be useful to people needing one, as info on the original badges is scarce
And fitted to the glove box insert, didn't have to recess it (as the badge is that thin), jus sanded the roughness off the insert.
Headlight washers. .
SRA module
Hoses and all brackets / fitttings
Grill panel with holes, to use as a guide
5litre washer bottle (handy for the winter . . . even though the car won't be out much)
The picture JUST about shows the 5L . . . interesting eh?
Started at the back bumper, got rid of some discolouration and put PDC rubbing strips on and checked where the loom and stuff goes. I need to get a different loom for the sensors (as I had cut it opening the parcel).
Few more bits done today and at the weekend.
Central locking button to fit someday. Not that exciting but handy to have
Washer jets fitted the other night, still have to run the wire to the module but the jist of it is all done now
Stuff from before, I'm not sure if I updated on here . . .
Heated Seat Switches
Fitted
Badge for the spoiler, same as Helm's on e36coupe.com
Another PDC sensor loom to replace the one I cut
ACS loom (using it to switch something else, wanted an OEM switch instead of a rocker switch
