Don't tell me that...

I've been neglecting the F/S section here cause I'm pretty happy with my interior, but I'd kill for terra.

It was Chestnut though, is that the same thing?

[fravel]

More or less. They called it 'terra' on the early E90's and 'chestnut' on the newer ones. I think the chestnut is slightly more red/brown as opposed to tan, but I just really love the look of our interiors in that scheme.

Gets delivered to the shop tomorrow

Just learned the cage shop had to order a new die for its bender so the car won't be back at the end of this but at the end of next week. Bummer. So won't know anything about the ATI fitment until then.

[justpete]

So the shop recommends this

https://store.windingroad.com/mobile...vlar-p727.aspx

for the center net anchored to the dash bar through the center vents. They can use simple stainless split collars to attach it to the roll bar.

And the roll bar is 1.75" diameter for all pieces including the X brace for the main hoop, harness bar, and X brace across the rear supports.

They're recommending this for the window nets when the rest of the cage is built

https://store.windingroad.com/mobile...vlar-p726.aspx

No specifics on the quick release square window nets that go over the left/right nets, although admittedly I've no idea why they'd be used. Belts and suspenders, I guess....

This is the first set they made for me. Once we verify fit they'll have the kit available for purchase.

Found the email where I was given a price for the kit, back in January. Haven't heard differently and was told it was ok to publish it, may already have but here it is again, $225.02

FYI

And I get nothing for this at all, no connection in any way.

I'd be okay if you did get something for it anyways, you deserve it. lol

You did make the front rotors a bit bigger though yes? The 135i setup as I recall is the same as the BMW Performance brake setup which is 338mm front with 300mm rear rotors, what size rear rotors did you go with?

I'm also curious how thick the RB rotors are. I tried them a few years back on the race car and I had issues cracking rotors with them. I ended up going back to Brembo rotors and hats. The Brembo hardware also may have resolved your pad clearance issue, but not 100% sure of that. The folks at Race technologies could answer that.

I also noticed you took the vibration dampers off the front calipers. Curious why?

Would love to know where you sourced that Samco coolant hose kit. I had those on the S4 for all my coolant, boost and intake hoses that weren't solid and they were great. I used Oetiker clamps instead of hose clamps, that's very much the way forward.
