Type of modification on your E90

[melvyn]

Fellow Bimmer Fans,

What is the market price for a set of used E90 (LCI) M-Tec Suspension? Any idea?

 

[SapphireBlack]

Exhaust = RM4.4k
Intake = RM3.4k

But that is a coupla months back. For newer prices, you gotta ask Obermeier, or Stuttgart. But my suggestion is keep your moolah for now, save up a few more, then go both at the some time.

Good things happen to those who wait. :top:

Hi All,

I am researching more on the BMW Performance Air Intake system in regards to the service interval. Unfortunately, I can't find much info on whether the air filter element is a BMW parts or a K&N parts. All i know is the air filter element part number is 13710445636 from RealOEM.

Do anyone know when should the air filter element be changed? Every 15k or 50k? Can this part be washed/oiled just like K&N or shall we just buy a brand new one and drop it in?

Appreciate your advice on this. Thanks

hey guys... one silly newbie question,

for bmw performance brakes on a 325i, will it fit 18" rims or need at least 19"?

thanks.

The rotors and caliper for the performance brakes is not that big. I think it'll fit.

Hey Keat... which brakes did u get? care to share price, where to buy etc? cheers.

BMW Performance brakes fits both 18" and 19" rims. No worries, as we have members here who have fitted brakes for both rim sizes. But you hv to realise that the BMW Performance brakes we are taling about here is just for the front calipers/disc/pads, not for the rear. It will fit the E90 LCI, non-LCI and E92, E93 like a glove. But you also have the option of purchasing the rear Performance brakes as well, but there are some slight modification needed to the rear section, only slight. One of our forumers here did the rear brakes, and the details are here in this same thread, but much earlier pages. Happy searching.

My POV > You will not regret one bit after you've fitted the BMW Performance Brakes, bloody responsive and superb braking response!

Cheers.

Got the Brembo 6 pot GT monoblock. Now repainting the calipers. Hope the rims will clear it. Will upload pics if everything goes well.

Guys,

It would be great especially when u post some pics of yr modifications & upgrades, to include a short (very short) write-up about the part and its usage, how much it costs, where you bought it from and your review of its performance. This will be beneficial and helpful to all the forumers logging in so that everyone can benefit from the knowledge. Afterall, its a car club and its purpose is for us all to share our 'rides'.

Cheers.

hi bro. i got in singapore at rm5k++. its cheaper as i got a staff price. the price includes installation (8 hours workmanship), programming, bmw m performance steering, no airbag, and the suede cover for the buttons.

usage - so so. but its fancy. it display/measure lap time, g force, engine and oil temperature, rev indicator.

not bad.

 

[SMG330i]

KL mafia : Bro, that is dirt cheap for a new one... I was quote for a used one at around USD 800++ without paddle shift. Yours come with paddle shift or you use back you oem ones?

 

[SMG330i]
