My Z4 CS Supercharged, Summary

[Pauly]

I did love that car and loved all the different mods and the way it evolved over time! I can imagine if you would of sold some of your mods the buy and sell section on here would have been busy! Looking forward to your future projects

They are additional air intakes for the intercooler. Got them machined from aluminium and painted in car colour

A bit late to this thread but I do like the Alcantara seats, I'll have to consider that option next time.

This is a hell of a car!
Will the new owner join the forum?
Oh, and do you, maybe have some diy on fitting those performance seats? Did you bypass occupancy sensors, or they worked with z4 wiring? And if they were heated did it also work plug and play with z4 wiring?

[Exactmax]

Thanks man! Can`t imagine he will join the forum The fitment holes of the E85 is wider than the Performance seats, so brackets had to be made. Yes, I just bypassed the occupancy sensors. I never connected the seat heating, they have different connectors. But I`m sure its possible to get the seat heating to work.

Yes, I have done some calculations Mostly I bought new stuff, but expensive pieces as supercharger and gearbox etc. was bought used. So approx £30000 and that`s not with labor (Done the most myself).
