Modded Z3

[infernoelise]

Hi Guys,I'm new to the forum here. So be gentle ya Just wondering are there any members here who have modded their Z3 in terms of rims and bodykit? BTW, what kind of offset would be required for a Z3 with 18 rims, front running on 225 and rear on 245?

Hi, 18inch isnt that abit huge, u may not have enough power for that man.
Is this a manual or auto? Have u tried those rims before?

Hi, I have a Z3 2.0 without any modification and been looking to add chrom tail pipe and door handle. Anyone knows where can I find good workshop for after market modification for Z3.

Z3007, where do you service your Z3? I am looking for a good workshop and haven't found on e yet.

Hi zroadster, i dont think it would be right to promote any workshop here. Anyway i just started with my mechanic so i dont know how good is he, service just 1 time, so far so good. Changed all the oils in the car, much smoother now. I am now fixing HID on my ride, hopefully it doesnt screw up. Iam avoiding modding my car as much as possible.

Hi Z3007, mine is an auto 2.0. Power rite now is so-so only. Its currently riding on 17 inch rims, upgrading to 18 inch may reduce the acceleration of the car, but i think it looks great. I guess its more of a car for cruising, heh heh. Would have been more fun if it had been a manual. Do you use your car everyday?

I was lucky, I found a manual. Yes its much more powerful and the soft top is semi auto. Yeah i use it daily, no prob as long as u park at proper places just pay abit more.

I have a 2000 Z3 2.0 auto with 17" wheels. Everytime I take the car up to about 100kph a high pitch sound starts to from the back. THis happens when I hold the speed and then it disappers upon slowing or accelerating but soon appears when I hold the speed again. Anyone has the same thing? What is wrong?
