Anyone know the torque spec for the rear caliper bracket? I am servicing the rear rotors...[unless you can get the rotor off without taking off the bracket.]
(the GT PP Brembo front is 85ft.lbs)
In the middle of cleaning the filter on my Steeds CAI with the precision oiling kit. Anyone know how much oil to use?
Thanks in advance. It's not obvious from the kit or the website
Anyone heat-wrapped/heat shielded their exhaust by the diff?
I had an aftermarket exhaust on my M3 and had to heat shield the exhaust by the rubber boots on the differential UJs (the OEM exhaust had welded shields). I was wondering of anyone else had wrapped the exhaust to help keep the diff...

Any recommendations for 19x10 rims in the correct off-set for HPDE/track. I want to run square 275/35's or 40's that I can drive back and forth - no room for a full set in the rear!
The only solid "lead" I have is BOSS 302S rims, with solid being the operative word at over 30lbs a rim...
Hi folks,
Noob on the forum! Just switched out of a 2008 M3 into a GT Premium.
M3's don't have dipsticks, so oil changes are done the old fashioned way, plus a long wait for the oil to warm up and be measured by the sensor. I am thrilled to have dipstick again! Has anyone used a Mitivac to...
