Mike from CA AutoTech delivered my car back today.....with the StopTechs on :D :D :D

Just spent the last 60 mins bombing up and dowm the A1M, did the usual 10+ 60-10 stop until I could smell the brakes ;)

AWESOME! I thought 2 front BBKs are great, wait till you experience 4 :eek: :eek: .........the brake pedal suddenly became a cornering weapon :cool:

...too dark to take pics and I need to puke up my dinner :( ....so laterz :)

Big thanks to Roy and Mike for making this mod possible at a great price [cool

Tin

10-03-2005, 10:59 PM

actually nick, just remembered, with this newfound stopping power, braking late etc, don't forget to remember mr/mrs average mondeo behind you, you'll be able to stop, but very much doubt that they will be... but I'm sure you know all dat ;)

Nice drop??? thats a nice car!!!

I do like ,and am v v tempted, with those rims - But will I still be entitled to membership of this forum without ACS Type-IIIs... ??

:cool:

Afif

11-03-2005, 11:14 PM

theres more CH's around than type 3's [crackmeup. I have always loved those type 4's since i first saw them! Just way out of my budget!

BeemerBoy888

11-03-2005, 11:43 PM

Nice, is that your new ride Roy [cool

Brakes look s@#t hot :D :D

Can't wait to see the pics Nick :)

CA Automotive UK

12-03-2005, 01:17 PM

all self praise aside , i really think the combination of parts has made one cool looking M3 car ( some close competion for Nick ...?)...the stares it gets are almost embarassing .

- 20 " acs typ 4
- Pss9 coilovers
-eibach anti rolls
- acs front deff.
-Stoptechs f+r
- remap
- acs exhaust ( yuk ...soon to be aa )

SUPERCHARGER NEXT YIPEE !!!

Afif

12-03-2005, 01:36 PM

holy sh*t! Didnt realise they were 20's!

CA Automotive UK

12-03-2005, 03:39 PM

oooohh yeah !

20 " is the BMW approved size on these for the M3.

great looks , but as I am always saying , if its handling that you want stick with 18" ...bigger the wheel the more inertia , slower the turn in , greater the tramline

io dontcare what anyone says , that is basic 0 level physics , thats that ! Dont make me throw my degree at you :rolleyes:

all the best

Afif

12-03-2005, 07:30 PM

who care about the physics, the looks justify them being there :p. One of those wheels costs more than all 4 of mine [bang.

12-03-2005, 07:59 PM

looks damn hot!

Nick get some pics up dude!

12-03-2005, 08:06 PM

The wheels, the brakes, the car, the garage - Where does it end?!
That is a beautifully modded car mate, looks amazing! I wasn't too sure about the Type 4's before but seeing them there - :eek:

You little devil Roy. You told me you were running a Nissan Micra with 14"s and a 57i kit on it!

CA Automotive UK

13-03-2005, 02:58 PM

I am , I am Ian ....upgrading to 15" wheels soon :-)

Time to come clean guys ..those pics are not my particular car or garage ; i have the same thing pretty much , but coupe with a few more mods . Will post up pics soon

The one pictured is a customers car we recently finished , but there is just something about it when you see it in the metal just jumps out at you . It really is the most beautiful m3 cab i think we have done to date .

more pics as we progress

13-03-2005, 03:00 PM

:D knew eventually youd crack :p. Definately looks amazing! Red goes well with the colour of the car! Although the front caliper looks weirdly positioned to me. I always assumed they were the same front and back [bang.

13-03-2005, 05:56 PM

Nice job, WoW :D
Are they GSD3's

BigFas

13-03-2005, 05:56 PM

Saw them in person yesterday, they look amazing!!! Definitely saving the pennies up for this mod on the next car, whatever it's going to be, BBK will definitely be an early mod

scorcher

13-03-2005, 07:32 PM

Gorgeous mate!

Looking forward to seeing them in the flesh next week.

Please don't let BBKs fit my R32.... http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/sprachlos/speechless-smiley-004.gif

13-03-2005, 07:38 PM

WOW those calipers are massive Nick, looks really good. [cool
I feel a little inadequate with my little ones now :o

...just cant justify the expense at the moment, want to finish off the exterior and interior first. Could'nt make yesterday, so i'll have to wait a few more days before we get together again. ;)

Off topic....Fas hope you had a good time yesterday bro, sorry I could'nt make it, got a cool pressie for next time I see you tho [hiya

Tin

13-03-2005, 07:42 PM

v nice..
however, thought u'd have metal valves with such expensive alloys.. :p

Mits

13-03-2005, 07:56 PM

I've got three set of metal valve caps but leave the black plastic ones on....keep getting tea-leafed by kids on bmx's :rolleyes:

peppernick

13-03-2005, 09:08 PM

Afif: the calipers are mounted differently front and back according to the tortional effect a spinning brake disc has on the caliper/caliper mount.

fireman: yes GSD3-F1s ;)

330dsal: yes, OEM BBS metal caps will be on for meets and HIN. They slide over the rubber stalk. I have lost too many in the past so for everyday usage, the 40p rubber caps will do ;)

Afif

13-03-2005, 09:57 PM

ahh makes sense now [hmm [bang....ok it sounded good and the looks are hot ;)....hmm and women deny their anything like cars.
