No details on the power kit. Don't know how much HP and torque gain. ECU tune from other tuners could gain quite a lot. Just don't have the warranty.

I like the steering wheel and the pedals. If they cost too much then forget them.

More than half of it are tempting
But yeah, price will help in the decision

Though I am very tempted to switch stock springs to coilovers but KWv3 is quite expensive. Anyone has heard how CKS, I just know it's cheaper
After reading all the threads about springs switching I am paying more attention while driving

Cost too much RC? It might be the least expensive mods on your cars beside wrapping your chrome.

會都唔使上, 仲要諗?

You may try KWV1 or KWV2 which have been released. Much cheaper as long as you don't mind the rebound and compression are non-adjustable.

These parts will probably cost an arm and a leg. The 3D pedals for example cost close to $10k per set. Of course our deep pocket mlai bro has them.

I like the steering wheel, flat bottom so there is more room for the thighs. Not sure if the hard to keep clean.

.
Oh so basically V2 and V3 are the same but it's just a question of being able to adjust the compression on V3.
But if I go for the out of the box setup, V2 and V3 are the same for me? It can save me 3k
And Z are offering a 50% discount on alignment

Oh btw I saw on Z page a bro with an AW has just setup a new set of F14 20"

I got the flat bottom performance steering wheel on my E91, it cost me around 5k (I didn't get it from BMW HK). Your arm surely worth more than that!

Get the V1 to save even more, if you don't need to tweet the rebound. It's really personal, a lot of people don't adjust. For me, I have adjusted once. Still not satisfied, need to adjust later for both rebound and compression.

Alignment for how much? I paid 900.

That car with F14 should be space grey.

That's fair. How much to install?

Oh you are right it's space grey, the AW is the one who got the KWv3

Ok so the V2/V3 logic can be extend to V1, ie nothing adjustable. I thought the lesser the version, the lesser the function.
For the alignment it's 600hkd. But to get the discount you have to order the KW. So no need to be upset

3D things are expensive like hell, nice but not at that price tag.

Those are things for people with deep pocket like Mlai and yourself.

I love the suede. Of course flat bottom means more room for leg too. But is not good for low speed really, just like the audi flat bottom steering wheel.
