E92 M3 Gets a refresh.

E92 M3 Gets a refresh.

Time to show you a few little upgrades on my own cars, starting with my E92 M3! Over the years I have loved this car & fitted upgrades as and when i could afford them, but with the builds of the Civic getting closer to finishing, I realised I will probably not be using the E92 on track all that much going forward. I wanted to give it the love it needed, some fresh brakes, fresh tyres, wheel refurb as they had corroded pretty horribly & a little service it didnt really need, but I wanted to just freshen up the oil and filter after a couple of track days.

The Wheels were always on my list to do, but every year after winter, the road trips start, the nurburgring laps get planned & also this car started to see UK Circuits a bit too, this car was - for me - never meant to be a track car, more of a beautiful tribute to my stress and dedication to my work in my 20s, a trophy almost. It was always my dream car from the day i first saw one & I knew i had to acquire one. As I’ve grown the car did get to see some track time especially in the last 3 years and it was even better than I had ever even hoped. But with other builds coming to a head, the civic, a future build i have tucked away too & also my Silvia being finished again, I wanted to give this a refresh & a break from the limiter so I can enjoy some Cars and Coffees, trips into London & Maybe, an NC500 Trip in it soon too.


I had the Work Wheels Refurbed in Mineral White, the same colour as the car which is a 3 Stage pearl, and finished them off with the Work Centre Caps.

Down the line I want to add a stud conversion kit & Lug nuts to the wheels, as i hate the OEM Bolts.

 

Another change was going from Michelin Tyres to Yokohama Advan AD09s. Not my first rodeo with these but my first time on a Japanese car & They look absolutely amazing. Going up to a 295 on the rear looks incredible too.

Freshly built up AP Racing Discs & DS2500 pads also had to go down, although I now need to redo the rear too annoyingly so I cant really use the car until that is done, but I am working on that at the moment!

 

I cant pretend that this wont see the track in the future, but For right now, I am going to get on some road trips & enjoy my car some more
