My Z4 CS Supercharged, Summary

Posting some pics of my newest mod, BMW Performance seats :D It was hard to fit them in the car, replacing the mounting brackets, the seatbelt mountings and remove the airbags since they allready sits in the doors. I have ordered new panels where the airbags was mounted, so it looks a little strange on the pictures. But it was absolutely worth the paine I think :rofl:

I have to say that I`m extremely happy with my car at the moment :P

They look a tad wider than the sport seats, which would suit me much more as been training hard again :D my back does not fit in :lol:

They much be rare as anything then! Think I've seen a set before, and they do look sweet. Much needed to alter the rails then? As I thought they fitted the e46, but in turn would of fitted the z4, so I guess not :?

seats actually bring the interior of the car bang upto date makes a huge difference...... i really cant wait to do my seat upgrade then i remind myself.... i live in the uk, so roof off driving means i freeze my nuts off, heated seats are abig plus for me, when i choose my new seats i need to somehow retrofit the bmw heating pads into the seats as i really dont want to loose this function. your car reminds me just why i picked up a roadster, just as good looking as the coupe.... with a few simple mods it really looks awesome, this is imo one of the nicest Z4's. period! welldone. All you people that say the roadster is the poor relation...... this car middle fingers you!!

what tyre sizes are you running?? the car looks very low (how much did you lower by?), any rubbing on full compression or full lock??

Thans man :D The BMW Performance seats have heated seats, so they work as oem :wink:

235/35-19 and 265/30-19 Bridgestone potenzas, ooh yes its pretty low, I have the KW V3 adjustable dampers so I don`t actually know how much its lowered. But maby 50-60mm. Some rubbing in the plastic inside the fenders on full compression. But not a big problem since its just the plastic.

Cool that you also own an ESS car :wink:

Yes the back its much wider than the m-sport seats. The rail on the performance seat is 2cm narrower on each side. So I made metal brackets to make the seat fit. The seat does not fit E46 without mods... BMW make them just for 1series and the E9X 3series :(
 
Just to confirm..... The bmw performance seats are heated??? They just plug right in and work on the oem wiring loom?? Holy shiiiitt. Thats awesome.

omg those seats are amazing!

Are they much lighter then the stock ones?

No, they are heavy :( . I will think they has the same weight as the stock ones, but they feels more solid(also bigger)..
