When I had mine I went from B8's & Stance, then B8's & stance plus to B14's. B14's are definitely the way to go with the M140i. I found the stance kits don't lower as much with the B8's, I think I remember a drop of around 10 - 12mm in total with the stance plus and the B8's.
Big up Rick. I gave life savings for one of these, ended up buying a stolen one and the police took it. 😔 It’s absolutely Fd me, so enjoying watching the process bro 👊🏽
TBH I have the B12 (B8 + Eibach Pro). I do a couple of track-days a year and with the condition of UK roads I think the Birds B1 E87 setup is a better compromise for a daily with a few track days. The F car Birds kit stance looked wrong, it looked like the 911 Rally edition. E87 120d 200BHP/300lb-ft, xHP ZF 6HP19 remap, 1M arms front & rear, subframe inserts, Powerflex rear upper mount bush, Darkside Developments FMIC, Powerflex ARB bushes & Milltek exhaust...
Good to see your back Ricky. Couple Questions,will we be seeing any track videos in the near future?also track related are you still planing to take the ards test and compete in races?if so would it still be in the m3 or are you moving on from that car
E87 120d - M3 subframe bushes, B12 kit, front and rear M3 LCAs + tension struts, braided brake lines, stage 2 remap, daily drive and a couple of track days at Brands every year…stage 2 = Miltek exhaust + darkside developments FMIC 220BHP not exactly a fire breathing dragon but an all-rounder
Is the car still comfortable? I've lowered my VXR and it's spine shattering. Put me off lowering springs but at the same time stock ride height is a crime.
Lowering springs (depending how low you go) on standard shocks will in most cases be a bad ride. Matched springs and shocks 👍🏼 Spend more money for adjustables, dial out what you don’t like. Your standard car is a compromise of handling vs comfort. Whatever you do, you won’t increase the comfort. Performances costs in many ways
Got a pair of VW racing line springs on stock shocks. 35mm drop on my MK6 GTi had it on coilovers before and it's night and day difference! Springs are the perfect balance, get better handling still get the stock type comfort and a more aggressive stance. Was the same case on my MK2 TT lowered on VOGTLAND 35mm springs
“Some people choose their women based on looks first, some choose personality…. FUNCTIONALITY!!!!” Avoid the non-functioning ones because you’ll end up in jail 🤣
Some honest feedback: I’d scrap this build and use the money for something more interesting, the b58 has been absolutely rinsed to the point where 750bhp is not impressive compared to 140s like md1marky and endless works messut
LLF RICKY DONT GET THE G900 that turbo will not make the power claimed, that turbo company lied about the turbo and what it can produce I hope you have not gotten it already bro, check TH-cam and see for your self a lot of people put that turbo on their car and are very very disappointed with it, they can’t make the power it advertised. The turbine wheel is too small so at high boost and rpm it chokes out and the engine can’t get the air out, might get 650 -680 max. Research for you self bro I hope I’m wrong. Link officially gassed Jamie he got the g1050 and the car can’t even make 700whp but the tuner telling him all sorts of other causes smh why car won’t make any power. Even his builder is disappointed at the out come of that turbo. Google TH-cam and see what people dyno when they have it on their cars. Save your self the bucks . But as I said LLF research please don’t make the error that may have and be disappointed.
Sits perfect now 🖤🖤🖤
@@markwilliams5654 why ? It’s a spring kit that is TUV tested
@@markwilliams5654 How do you figure that one?!
@@markwilliams5654 Please explain why! out of interest that's all.

Glad your back Ricky loving the vids👍🏻👍🏻
Great to see the M140i back 💪💪

Sickk stance sick car Ricky
🖤🖤
Need to see you behind the wheel of DMOs Jazz
Can't wait to see the build Ricky.
Couldn't handle that smoke even if I wanted to 😏🤫🤭🤣💪💪💪💪❤ respect bro
What happened to the Audi TT that was meant to undergo a K20 conversion? Would've been mega!
update coming soon
Really looking forward to seeing this project. C’mon Ricky 💯👌
That's a wicked stance!
Would possibly look even better with quad pipes?
Christmas is time. Glad it's gone well though. Yeah let's get a pov now 👌
Beautiful looking car
Let’s go champ just like old times Sunday upload 12, on the .
Is this the OG Motech from back in the day? Like fast and furious 1 days?
Can you give updates on your cars?
thats some beautiful camera grading and angle, mind sharing your specs of your camera and what settings you used on 0:50 cut
Witam piękna bmw a jaki to model i rozmiar felg aluminiowych pozddo😊
Love that car
Looking good Ricky!

Time to get her gone on llf games! I’m buying all 500 tickets 😂

What happened to the 4WD DSG Civic?
You could deffo get some wider tyres on those wheels, looks like they're a little stretched as it is
Geeza from motech looks like discoboy 😂
Hahah
Thanks for sharing
Need to do something about the flaoty rear ends on these, I believe a m2 subframe brace helps a lot and is cheap

Hey Ricky, what happened to that sick BMW track weapon that you had built??

Lower not always better. Difficult to get a nice balance

Nasty chip in the windscreen..ouch

@carquestions2148 @Matarmstrongbmx
140i has been done to death
Dont worry about it, make your own content 👌
Don’t look any different 😂should of filmed some cut always of the fitment process
The birds kit will drop the car 20mm front 10mm rear , Our kit is 30mm front and 25mm rear so not a heap in it but it’s lower
