New Dinan Website and Lightweight Flywheel for 335i/xi

sparkyg · 02-04-2008, 09:46 PM

check out www.dinancars.com

I am not going to bring up the hotly debated topic of price but good to see more product offered.

de.abeja · 02-04-2008, 10:19 PM

The more that they develop the more other tuners will do the same. I for one am happy to see Dinan is producing more and more for out car regardless of whether I will ever be able to/want to afford it.

timn · 02-04-2008, 10:27 PM

They really love the $2000 price point. Seems like any mod they have is that price.

Pele96 · 02-04-2008, 10:33 PM

What do you guys think about suspension upgrade?

Fraggy · 02-04-2008, 10:42 PM

Thats about the only part of Dinan stuff I feel is over priced. I dont mind paying a lot for electronics that can really mess up a car, but springs and shocks, no way, you can do better with a good set of Coilovers

gundamfans · 02-04-2008, 10:42 PM

yeah the most notable is the suspension stage 2 and 3 upgrades. Not sure for me. I'm done modding since I"ll be selling my E90 335i in 3 months...

sparkyg · 02-05-2008, 10:20 AM

How come selling?

retrodrive · 02-05-2008, 10:36 AM

Flywheel looks pretty good. Dinan works very hard on releasing good products fast. They normally go for less then $500 though.

BoostedBMW · 02-05-2008, 11:13 AM

Its nice to see that Dinan came out with a leightweight FW for our cars.

The price seems retarded, which should come as no surprise by now though. I paid $350 for a good LW flywheel for my s2k (comptech), $2k is retarded.

KanosWRX · 02-05-2008, 11:20 AM

Wow they are trying to sell sway bars at 400 dollars for just the front one and 350 for the rear!!! Seriously are they stupid, maybe not, but the people that pay that much must be.

JuniorDee · 02-05-2008, 11:46 AM

I think Dinan has a deal with BMW to make their mods so pricey that purchasing them brings your total overall car cost closer to the price of a m3. Hence I am trading my 335i for the M3 in 3 months.

astris · 02-05-2008, 11:50 AM

Wow, just wow. $2k for an f-ing flywheel???

And it's a STOCK flywheel at that.

I'm sorry, but that is just plain ridiculous. The 335 is not a Ferarri. You are not going to get 2k worth of performance from that part. Someone please try to justify the pricing of the flywheel.

Only $7,500 for some Brembos too.

billspreston · 02-05-2008, 12:02 PM

I hope that 2k price tag also includes a happy ending from Mr. Dinan himself.
