Brembo Brakes; KW Clubsport Suspension

Stopped by Auto Talent tonight to see the progress and I must say I was overwhelmed with how the Brembo Brakes look and how low the KW Clubsport suspension is. Cant wait to track the car. Thank you Sam and Zolti at Auto Talent for understanding me when I say I must have the lowest, stiffest and best handling M3 possible. Sorry for the phone quality pictures, ill get better pics once its out of the shop. Enjoy!

Thanks, ya it'll definitely provide me with the performance...as far as daily driving...ehh its something ill have to manage, however with the KW v3 that were on their prior which i had on the lowest setting, it wasn't too bad.

BTW, the front can drop another 1/4 inch, and indeed it will. And if i still had my interior the rear would have been a tad lower as well.

WOW! i passed by autotalent yesterday and was wondering why your car was on the lift. I also saw the RD sport stroker car. Anyways, the KW clubsports are going to be great for the track. With the camber plates, you can run an aggressive alignment, and the linear springs make the stability much more predictable.

Wow, the rear is slammed. A little too low for my taste though.

wow I saw your car the other day when Zolti was working on it I was drooling at teh Brakes and Suspension. Correct me if I'm wrong but generally speaking isn't slamming your car that low not the best for track use??

Lowering the car is a small aspect of building a track car. Not the only aspect and should not just be done to just be lower.

The suspension plays a far bigger role overall. We'll See how the Clubsport fairs.
