BartM3 · 12-28-2009, 01:01 PM

I would get red, and have them powdercoated in the same colour blue as the car! (It looks gorgious btw, especially with these new wheels!!)

1st impressions. It looks more gorgeous in real life than in the pics. The 1 size up in tire size from stock fits the rims perfectly. More noteworthy is the act that even though I have yet to run in the tires, the comfort level of these tires are amazing. Road noise is noticeablely quieter from the advan sports I was using, which itself was a big jump in performance and comfort from the stock run flats.

Great set up sg-e89! really like those wheels

Has the car been lowered? or is that the stock ride height? Any rubbing?

Eisenmann quad exhaust are being installed this moment. keeping my fingers crossed I can pick the car up tommorrow. Apparently the rear bumper needs to be cut to fit the exhaust tips, so some modifications needed.

Good luck with the fitment. I 'm so eager to see how it looks and sounds. Did you go for race or sport? Pics asap please please

Vintage · 02-10-2010, 08:23 PM

man - the rims look amazing; in person they must be ridiculous

dcs2k · 02-11-2010, 11:10 AM

hope to have some morepics uploaded on the rims..

but meantime.. a teaser video below (remember to have your speakers at full volume)

dcs2k · 02-11-2010, 11:17 AM

well, thats it.First impression of running the Eisenmann quad sports exhaust below.

The Good
Sounds much more sportier than stock exhaust. Dont get me wrong. I love the way the stock exhaust sounds. But this adds a new dimension to the car's character.

The Bad
Drones like hell. esp between 80-100kmh. anything below 70 its fine. I am beginning to wonder did Eisenmann ship the race exhaust to me instead? I particularly didnt like the fact that the footwell area has a constant vibration. Will send the car back into the workshop next week to have things checked.

dcs2k · 02-12-2010, 03:15 AM

KWY91 · 02-17-2010, 03:05 AM

Awesome sounding stuff

dcs2k · 02-20-2010, 02:59 PM

after 500km on the exhaust, no more droning... oh well, maybe a little at 2k rpm. floorboard still vibrates a bit. sounds seems much tamer than when the exhaust was 1st installed. kindda regretted not getting the race version!

looking at getting 3d design rear diffuser to see if it fits now

T89 · 02-20-2010, 08:03 PM

Wow I love the way it sounds! However, I believe quads should only be on ///M cars. But after looking at your set up.. hmm I'm tempted. Looks great sg-89

Any other plans for the zed?

T

dcs2k · 02-20-2010, 09:55 PM

downpipes, fmic, cold air intake and possibly a meth kit for performance.

I dun really like how the front bumper looks, might wanna get the M sport kit too

Ryan@IND · 02-22-2010, 03:47 PM

Very nice! All of the Eisenmann systems take some time to break in, but in the end the sound is well worth the wait. Enjoy the system and on a side note the 3d rear diffuser would look INCREDIBLE on your car.

ChuckB · 02-22-2010, 04:43 PM

The quad tailpipes are the race spec exhaust, and while the droning is a bit bothersome, it does improve with age, I have just cleared 600km on my quad setup [in a 30i] and it seems a bit better everyday, have you noticed that the tailpipes grow about an inch when hot ? Like you i am putting the car back on the lift this weekend to set what is vibrating inder the floor, not really bother some, but I figure it is just one of the mounts settling in and wanting to be re-positioned.

dcs2k · 02-22-2010, 11:27 PM

yes the tailpipes looks a bit elongated when hot. lol . not sure if anything can be done to that. Please let me know if your workshop managed to locate where exactly the vibration is coming from.

Andrew thanks for your cmoments. please pm me a quote on the 3d rear diffusor with shipping to singapore. There is a local agent here, but if your price is about the same I will get it from you!

dcs2k · 02-24-2010, 12:29 PM

This may be of some interest to those modding the s35i. Before the run today, I was running even with a similar DCT 335i on the same JB map. With the Esienmann exhaust and forged DVs, the z4 nows pulls ever so slightly over the 335i. the only difference being the aftermarket exhaust and Forged DVs, can only put down to the more free flow exhuast and the forged dvs being ab;le to hold boost longer.
