By what standard?

A shot of the car at Bimmerfest 2014 in our partners booth (iND Distribution).

Enjoy..

Looks great, still bit of room to go lower.

Nice work Malek - One of my favorite cars at Bimmerfest this year. It is looking fantastic!

MFEST VIII bound. Come see this car at Bimmerfest 2014 at the Pasadena Rose Bowl at the IND Distribution booth sporting RKP Germany parts and a full bespoke in-house designed & built suspension system. The fastest naturally aspirated Road going E9x M3 built to date.

this is the total money shot.. your car looks sick Malek!

Here are some preview shots of the massive build that took place on the E92 M3. A full photoshoot, video and write up of this vehicle will debut in July 2014! Stay tuned.

Brief overview:

Custom MRF Control Arms setup paired with Bimmerworld Trailing arm spherical bushings and spherical lower control arm bushings. MRF Engineering Sub-Frame Bushings custom designed for suspension geometry correction for lowered vehicle ride height. Delrin & Aluminum Differential bushings from Turner Motorsport. RDsport anti-roll bars. AP Racing Big Brake Kit. All hardware shot-peened and zinc plated for strength and corrosion resistance. Boxed OE BMW trailing arms, finalized with gloss black powder finish.

Track width has been increased 11mm per side, 22mm total track width increase and coupled with 295 wide rubber in the rear for optimal control, feedback and grip. Track width has been mechanically increased by control arm lengths and position, not by simply adding wider wheels.

Sub-frame itself has been reinforced with weld in gussets at its weakest points for strength and rigidity with reinforced 7/16th" threaded slots for MRF Engineering lower stiffening plate.

All rubbing bushings have been eliminated and is full spherical system. The only remaining soft element are the polyurethane anti-roll bar mounts.

Topped with the frame itself powder coated in BMW Motorsport blue.

Vehicle will also employ a 1 piece carbon fiber drive shaft shortly. This is currently being built and not pictured here.

Engine and transmission mounts are Group-N grade.

Absolutely, positively, insanely awesome! Well done Malek.

Malek's attention to detail with everything he touches should by obvious to anyone viewing this work. Nobody else touches my car.

SO AWESOME!

Speechless, that is beautiful work.

Rear chassis stiffening plate. A quick render from Solidworks.

Neat!

I assume that cutout is for the diff? What additional benefits would this provide over the solid subframe and delrin/solid differential mounts?

Correct. It will further reinforce and tighten the chassis' torsional rigidity. Mimicking what the front reinforcement plate does and what BMW did with the F10 M5 and F12/F13 M6.

Will also have an employed duct for differential cooling. Pick up tabs will be employed as well and will act as a chassis mounted rear diffuser for better aerodynamics at the rear end.

Would this fit on a 335i?

I'd also be interested in the Bimmerworld trailing arm spherical bushings. Can you pm me the price? Thanks!

Very nice! Can't wait to hear/see more, Malek. Your ability to do stuff like this is exactly what I was talking about in that text.

Thank you

man o man!!!! that is insane and im wondering when production will take place? also on the Carbon Fiber Driveshaft that our cars should have been equipped with! Great work!

There are a bunch of companies that make c/f drive shafts. If we have enough interest, we could probably find one to make them and get group buy pricing.

Is your Veloforza exhaust still in production? If so can you PM me pricing?

Hey Malek, i notice you went with Groupe N motor mounts are they better then Vorshlag Polyurethane mounts? Changing my mounts soon not sure which setup to go with.
