That’s fine but it wouldn’t be smart to put money into it unnecessarily…. Just drive it and enjoy it.

Now, adding that to the G80, that’s a whole different story…

Pretty curios about this also - especially for the engine mounts as they look very similar to the B58TU ones on the m240i and i was looking to increase engine stiffness. The hubs might also fit , the brace will probably need some drilling in the strut tower.

If someone has any info about compatibility of engine mounts between the G42 m240i and the M4 CSL - it would be great .

Full is a bit misleading. There are more parts differences like solid subframe mounts and other links/arms but agree this is about right as a saleable aftermarket package.

As far as we can see there are no other part differences, the subframes themselves which have the mounts already installed are the same part number. The only suspension arm (or to be more specific bushing in the arm) that is different is the one we changed with an aftermarket part.

You are still correct though, but for a different reason - The dampers themselves have a different part number, quite why we do not know, but they do and we didn’t fit them.

Hi Matt,

Curious to get yrs/Imran’s input as to whether or not G81/G83 additional rear bracing could be retrofitted to G87 m2…

From the link below- items 1 and 2 are common across RWD G8x, could the V brace (item #6 with part no 33328746035) and extra cross brace (item # 7 with part no 33329882335) be retrofittable to further stiffen rear of the car ?

To achieve our goal we're fitting almost every M4 CSL specific suspension part along with the Steering, Transmission and Diff/Traction software and a custom wheel alignment.

But have we managed to achieve our goal? Imran gets behind the wheel to see if all our hard work has paid off, and we've built an M2 CSL before BMW.

Matt, does the speed sensor hole have to be taped or is it self taped with the bolt?

Hi Matt@Evolve - can you tell me if the CSL front carrier affects the clearance between the front strut body and the tires? I’m running 285/35/19 tires on 19x10 wheels so the clearance is fairly tight, so if the carriers gain negative camber by tilting the wheel inward at the top, I might run into clearance issues. I’m interested in ordering the carriers, but need to make sure I can use them. Thanks!

Yes we gained tyre to arch clearance so assumedly it got closer to the inner body.

You could in theory use a spacer to push the wheel back outwards if need be.

Are the CSL coil springs exact same parts as other G8x?
