Overall
the car is pretty clean. There's a few scratches on the paint all around, and
rock chips on the bumper, definitely need a nice wax/polish/claybar
treatment. |
Interior is clean too, driver
side door arm rest is worn and passenger side a pillar at the bottom starting
to wrinkle a little, but nothing torn. |
I bought this car here in
Houston from the 3rd owner, iirc on carfax it only lists 2 owners before me.
(I have the carfax pdf I can email) |
But PO used to travel a lot
and put highway miles on the car, and sold it to me cause he was moving to
Canada. |
My plan was to prep this car
to compete in NASA Time Trials (TTB), and may have over extended myself on
this project….considering a few options now. |
To be competitive in TTB, car
will need a few more parts to maximize points and I have the breakdown of
what can be added, depending on your driving style. |
I can of course add/subtract
any mods from the list….except the engine work. |
The rod bearing upgrade was
done as preventive maintenance, as I knew I would be tracking a lot. |
I've only done 1 track day
with the car, car has a lot of top end power, pulls strong till 8000 rpms,
suspension will need fine tuning, I'm going to add more negative camber up
front to see if the midturn/exit understeer goes away. |
Everything works on the
car…there's a few rattles here and there with such a stiff suspension. |
Car was recently aligned and
corner balanced - car weighs 3362lbs with half tank gas, front/rear balance
50/50, cross balance 49.9/50.1. |
Most of the main work (engine
and reinforcements) were done at Greg Smith Racing @ Dallas, TX. |
All parts installed above are
brand new - except for the kidney/side grille. There are other small parts
replaced too like screws/clips/clamps etc. |

Fans of BMW performance had two events to keep an eye on this weekend: the reveal of the M4 Concept at Pebble Beach, and the efforts of the Bavarian automaker's DTM teams at the Nurburgring. What ties them together, however, is what BMW has in store for next year. The German carmaker has confirmed that it's already working on a new M4 DTM to campaign in the highly-competitive touring car series starting next season. It didn't reveal any details, but we can expect the M4 to make the same jump to competition spec as the M3 did before it. And with some success, we might add: successive versions of the M3 have won 48 DTM races over the years, starting with the checkered flag which Harald Grohs claimed at Hockenheim in 1987 through to the same race which Augusto Farfus won earlier this year. After taking home the title for BMW in its first year back in DTM last season, Bruno Spengler also won at the Red Bull Ring in Austria two months ago, but the Bimmer teams seem to be having a bit of trouble defending its title against fresh assaults from Audi and Mercedes. BMW undoubtedly hopes the new M4 DTM will help it turn another new leaf, and we're looking forward to seeing how it all shapes up. Read more in the press release below.

How does Audi plan to reach two million units in annual sales and pay for the 11 new models it's adding to its lineup - an expansion that may include models named SQ2, Q9 and F-Tron? By increasing its investment to 22 billion euros ($30.3 billion US) between now and 2018. That figure represents an increase of about 500 million euros over the previously planned outlay, according to a report by Automotive News, and that could be due to Audi wishing to goad the momentum that pushed it to 1.5 million annual sales two years ahead of schedule. It's also about staving off the challenges from BMW and Mercedes-Benz. Now that BMW has been able to turn some of its attention away from its "i" series of Megacity cars, it will reportedly spend more than planned in 2014 as it continues the rollout of ten all-new vehicles and 15 new-generation vehicles through the end of next year. Mercedes, having been dropped to third in the sales race, is preparing to add 13 new cars over the next six years. Audi's money is going into technology, into product like the next-generation TT and the Q1 and production expansions and upgrades all over the world. The expenditure represents just under a fourth of Volkswagen's 84.2 billion-euro ($115.7 US) outlay devoted to taking the number-one global automaker title away from General Motors and Toyota by 2018.

Bloomberg reports shifting tariff regulations have upended the traditional automotive pecking order in Korea. Thanks to cheaper import taxes, foreign brands have seen market share jump from 28 percent to 41 percent over the last two years. BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Audi have all capitalized on the shift, with domestics like Hyundai and Kia suffering at the hands of their German rivals. Taxes on European imports have fallen from 8 percent in 2011 to just 3.2 percent today. Over the next few years, tariffs will all but be eliminated for most imports, and taxes on US-made vehicles are expected to fall to just 4 percent in 2014. By 2016, that number will be zero. Needless to say, Hyundai and Kia are concerned about the shift. Hyundai has seen profit fall by 15 percent last quarter, and the company says it is on pace to see the slowest sales growth since 2007. The company's shares have fallen by 12 percent. In order to stem the losses, Hyundai has discounted its midsize sedans and started working on diesel engine options.
