I've been thinking of doing the AA Downpipe + JB4, have any sound clips?

Also where'd you get the spoiler?

oh wow those front headlamps? is that the original color? looks amazing and giving evangelion vibes

Where did you get the black front reflectors?

Did you code those daytime running lights if so how through BimmerCode?

Yes my friend is into coding and somehow did this for my car and his m4. Not too sure how but you have to be very experienced with coding if you want to even attempt I was so confused when he did it.

Its actually just a sticker overlay I bought for a g20 3 series. The reflector is the same size so anything from the g20 will work with this .

I'll post some sounds clips soon for sure! Check out Auto Id they have good options for the g42 spoilers and other exterior mods

My coding friend actually changed it to have the blinker light be my daytime light! The original was just a white led strip this is much better!

Nice build so far and thanks for posting. I didn't know these cars can run on e85, but I see you have it mapped. How high % can we go?

Rag9000 · 08-12-2022, 12:06 PM

Any word on how to code the blinkers as daytime running lights? It looks insanely cool.

Right now I'm running an e30 blend but these cars can handle up to e50 stock. Pretty insane. It definitely is a lot faster going from 93 to e30.

Any reason you're sticking with map 4 and not going map 5?
