I lowered my GT350 a few weeks ago and aligned it myself set toe in to .05 on both sides Tramlining is almost non existent now! So much better!
Steering is sloppy too. Just for that reason alone is why I'd take an M2 over a 3/4. And why does the 3/4 feel heavier than it actually is? Rather the GT350 manages to hide weight. The M4 I drove felt just as heavy as my car or my car felt just as "light" as the M4, which I'm guessing was around 3600 flat. I thought these guys were the ultimate driving machine? :headbonk: Guess not!
I never thought the steering was sloppy. I thought is was very direct and precise. It is very numb and you don't get any info from it. I thought my M4 felt light and tossable on turn in, more so than the GT350 (it is one of the very few things I miss from that car), but after turn in things went to shit mid corner and exit. Especially if you had it in MDM mode, which is our equivalent to sport it would just kill the power mid corner to exit if it detected ANY slip at all. It became infuriating and the thing was such a handful with everything off, which I didn't feel comfortable doing very often.
That's probably a better explanation. I've only driven one on the road for a short distance, a few miles, albeit twisty ones, and on autocross. The steering wheel felt like a playstation joystick. Nada there. At least the 350 gives you SOMETHING back. It's no peach by any means but at least you get a little bit to work with. Honda S2000...now that's a fine rack right there. Take that as you will.
Agreed. When I first started driving the GT350, I always felt it was pushing very early in the corners until I talked to some others that crossed over from the M3/4. They basically said it was me just getting used to the steering and feeling something. :lol:
BMR sway bar, go full stiff. Problem very solved.
Way ahead of you, I've got the FP springs in the garage and I have the FP sway bar kit on order, which is supposed to arrive in September. :cheers:BMR sway bar, go full stiff. Problem very solved.

I would say that there are some aggressive looking features, but they are confined to the area at the front of the car and only below the bumper. However, I do agree for the most part that the M2 doesn't look very sporty.
Huh, you're going with ridiculous? You have to admit the BMW is boxy. It's not sleek. I think they are decent enough looking, but I have to agree that BMW M2s don't look very sporty. Really the M3 and M4 don't either, other than maybe a splitter here or there.
I like how the M2, 3 and 4s look. I think BMW does a nice aggressive look without going overboard, with the M3/4s comp pack 666 wheels being an exception, those are nasty IMO. I think the M5/6 are a little bland for my taste but still classy.
I mostly like the looks of BMWs too.
Huh, I would think of Porsche as being the one to deserve capital letters in that phrase more than any other. :cheers:
Hmm.....
