Electric Hydraulic sounds interesting, is that a common modification people do?

Hello, I'm looking to pick my brake pad setup for my vehicle. I am looking to track my car and I also daily it. I'm totally fine having squeaky brakes. Wondering if I should pick the bluestuff or the yellowstuff. Also what would be good brake fluid to choose? Thank you!

Looking to go to Willow Springs! My discs are going bad (from previous owner), so gonna swap them for the Zimmerman Rotors above and probably buy better pads. Any recs from fcp euro in your experience?

An electric hydraulic sounds better, never considered that. Was it easy to swap it in?

Hello, I was wondering how can I tune my EPS? Right now it's super numb and has a large deadzone and then all of a sudden it feels really sharp when I'm doing a turn. Any help would be super appreciated! I am looking to track my car soon :D Thank you!

Hi Phil, I have an 04 3.0i M54. Been wanting to embark on this journey, by chance do you mind sharing your photos/experience? I'm a total newbie so anything that I can use to hand hold myself would be super appreciated!

Thanks, I requested to join the group. I want to learn the limits much better, so that makes sense. Sounds like I'll be fine buying the Zimmerman rotors, but then buying better pads. Any recommendations on pads? Also, I agree! I hate the EPS, it's sooooo numb :(. Do you track w/ EPS or did you...

Mechanic is me :). Let me get my car hot again right now and check again.

Yeah, I checked it when the car was warm. Probably 5-10 minutes after turning off the engine. This could be interesting, I think I'm doing 5W-30? Thanks, I'm pretty leveled in my garage.

Hello, My 2004 z4 3.0i is at 80,000 miles. I've had the car since Jan of last year. I've put about 11k miles on the car myself. Recently my car has started to throw the yellow oil light when I turn off the car. I top it up, etc. But eventually the light comes back. Well... today I checked the...

Hello, I am looking to track my 2004 Z4 3.0i. I believe I need to replace my rotors, but definitely pads. I was wondering if anyone has any recommendation? I was looking on FCP euro due to easy shipping, does anyone have experience or can recommend whether or not the Zimmerman Rotors are fine...

Oh wow, even the rear view mirror? So I should try to search for donor parts/ebay a mirror? Is there a guide on the installation?

Oh man, I wish my rear view was auto dim -- that would be sooooo helpful. So even if I do find an auto dim rear view and driver side, I wouldn't be able to use them b/c I don't have the wiring in there?

Does the car have an option to have auto-dim side mirrors?

You too, right? I've always wanted the auto-dim mirrors. I drive a lot at night and tons of big trucks are in the US. They are at the right height that it blinds me to even try to look back.
