Dont put your life in danger as we love you and your car....have your tyres warmed up?
My DSC was flashing in the first half of the run cos my tyres need time to heat up, once it warmed up, it sticks like hell! (It took awhile to warm up tho) :thumbsdown:
Best buy for you, Keith

Ferrari tire warmer box

So every time you can warm up before go out for safety drive.

I saw I pulled on the straight and you close up after corners ... some suspension work is a must...when will AK be free? should I just go down or do I need an appointment or something?

Lets do that next time with the M3, the key is to keep it at high rev. The understeer issues should be less obvious in the M, but it tail happy would be fun....
+1 rev high thats the key and push on corners, it will grip better

Saw this Z3 M coupe for sale a while ago. It said it cannot be driven in HK due to emission problem. Can it be fixed so that it can pass the emission test ? Quite a nice looking car IMO.

Do you know what kind of fault ? No wonder the seller is selling for such a cheap price.

Is it a coupe or convertible ? Personally I like the coupe better as it has an unique design and looks drastically different from a normal Z3.

I am going down to AK47 this afternoon to check on the fog lights.
