I looked at the Z4 sDrive35is, IMO they lost the true sports car in the makeover.
It's more of an SLK competitor now.

Absolutely loving the M Coupe.
Pic from the weekend, out with a buddy at an autoX.

M Coupe looks great, man.. The stance on that car is just bada$$!!! Is that Alpine White?

Let me get this straight. Just to see if I understand this completely.

Right now, my toe #'s arent too bad at all. If I leave it as is, It'll probably be allright. The only main issue is, the difference on the rear cambers. ... which basically means, I will get increased tire wear on the right side? Is it significant though? compared to the left? or its negligible?

Right now, Im not feeling any pull on the right side.
I don't the camber difference is enough that you will notice it. I'm just **** about stuff like that, so if it was me I'd ask them to correct it and even out the camber... but if you think they've spent enough time on your car, then you should be fine as is.

Ditto... My modding dept is chapter 11.

Why can't I just be happy with what I have?
I truly need help.

I'm in a slow down mode as well. I've got a few other things I plan to finish in the near future, then it's time to save up for an SC!

Scott, if there is one more thing you need to do, is to get the GTSPEC braces. The car is transformed. TRUST ME. Handling is Remarkedly improved further.

The ones that I have on my car is the STB, the rear tie brace, and the 6pt brace. The M Brace wouldnt fit my stillen exhaust properly.

You wont regret it..

^ agreed. The GTspec M brace and rear lower tie made a huge difference. Another major change I recommend is swapping out the tiny awd rear sway for the rwd sway. I am really starting to notice how much the handling has changed with these additions.

FYI - for others with Stillen exhaust.
The Stillen has a slip joint in the right leg of the front Y/X pipe.
If this was adjusted correctly, I think there is a good chance that the M brace would fit.

^ +1000

I now have all of the GT Spec braces installed and can attest to the fact that they make a huge difference in steering feel & responsiveness and the overall handling of the car. The biggest changes I noticed were with the front strut bar, front outer tie braces, rear 6-point brace, and rear M-Brace. All are definitely worth the investment!
