So these are a few of our favourite G42 M240i mods, we have a lot more to come so stay tuned. OUR M240i Products: autoid.co/coll... OUR STORE: autoid.co OUR INSTAGRAM: www.instagram....
he probably doesnt have dynamic suspension, some of them come out run flats, no adaptive suspension and a speed limiter much higher than 130mph. the dynamic has magride and definately doesnt feel floaty or wobbly. my 2023 with adaptive drive in sport plus is stiff and planted.
Everything is relative. Depends on what you are use to driving. I've been driving a lowered/stiffened Miata on the weekends for the last 2 years and I'm thinking about getting a M240I X. Test drove one for the first time 2 days ago. Knew it wouldn't compare, but massively disappointed in the handling/feel. Looking at videos like this to see what can be done about it. All I know is that in stock form this thing wouldn't come close to hanging with my 185HP Miata though the canyons and twisties.
@@62Sketchwas it a loaded one? Friend has a base and mine is performance/track package and I assure you he's quite upset with the difference. If you can afford, I'd check a loaded one and adding strut tower braces
@@A_Guy123 No, it was base with 225 run flats on front and back. Can't believe they are selling a 3800 lb car with 225s. My Miata is 2300 lbs with 215s. PS4S 215s at that. It was the only M240 they had at the dealership. I went to different dealership since then and they had a M240i RWD with 225/255 non run flats, and I will say it handled much better. I'm sure the tires help a lot, but also wondering how much RWD plays into also. I may be leaning more now to the RWD just for better feel. Really need to find a dealership with a XDrive and a RWD with the performance tires to compare back to back, but base run flat 225s is a absolute no go.
@@AutobahnSoCal I cant speak for the quality of either (haven’t had them in my hands), but I’ve heard both and we know intakes on this car aren’t making much more HP. Ill save the $1k and go Dinan.
Are those carbon interior parts all just for the steering wheel only ? I see the steering wheel trim and the paddles just wondering what the larger curved pieces are for…..looks like for the back of steering wheel maybe ?
@@AUTOIDTV thanks for the reply. You flashed a screenshot during the video of the item which consisted of 5 pieces I think. The paddles (2) The steering wheel trim (1) And then there are the other 2 curved pieces I’m wondering what that is for. Also since we are talking interior trim….have you done any other videos on the other trims on the dash, center console, and doors ?
Is it possible to get the M performance footrest cover for RHD? The black plastic looks awful and out of place with the SS look accelerator and brake paddle
New M240i (RWD) owner here. Quick questions: 1. Did the exhaust trigger a CEL without a tune? 2. Are you able to use the JB4 on the new encrypted Bosch ECUs? 3. Any issues with scraping driveways and speed bumps with the springs and lip kit? Thanks and cheers fellas.
M240i xdrive owner. If you remove the cats of GPF, yes, you will get a CEL. JB4 does not work with these ECU's unless you get the ECU unlocked by shipping it to Europe. and with 20mm drop (they did 30/35), I have only scraped the front lip once, just make sure to take everything at an angle and you should be fine.
@@miked9482That is 100% wrong. JB4 is a piggy back tune it does not write anything to the ECU. It works great on the G42. I have one on my G42 and it makes a huge difference.

Mine's stock, and I can't say it ever wallows or feels floaty! Got to be the best A to B car available at the moment.

@@62Sketch if you get a rwd m240 I'd get a used m2 and go 6 speed at that point. If I didn't need AWD I would've gone that route

Toyota engine cover 😅
Hey Guys,
Are you looking at upgrading the brake pads & fluids?
I understand that this might be the M240i’s Achilles heel.
Check out our most recent video!
Eventuri is overpriced. You get the same sound in a $450 Dinan intake and I doubt any performance difference.
Dinan is better quality.

This is what I thought and ended up doing on my M240i, results are phenomenal.
Both good carbon fiber intakes but can’t justify 3x price for the Eventuri
you guys actually waffle so much it’s jokes 🤣🤣🤣
💀💀🤣
What noise does that intake make again bro? 😂😂
Tshhhhh
I have a 285/35/19 on the rear

The steering trim consists of the trim around the air bag and centre piece. Which curved bits are you referring to?
@@AUTOIDTV thanks for the reply.

Great video
Like your Sense of humor
Can’t wait for my front and rears to come in!
Im sorry but I can't stop hearing youchewb 😅
Sorry 🤣

I bought the same gloss black kit and totally agree!
Its a great kit, super easy to fit too.
Banging video as always
Hi Guys, Please can I ask which map you use on your JB4 to get your fantastic power output
Lols. " Welcome back to TH-cam"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wrap it in that dark English racing green.
newbie question on my G42 do you need a tune if you put on the intake and catback ?
We recommend getting a tune if you want to make the most of these modifications.
downpipe and stage 2 next right :)
Biggest problem with these is no manual. No manual = no buy
Dude, no one cares. The people bitching about manuals never buy them. If they did they would make manuals.
What stage JB4 tune are you using
Just curious if you were to order the m240 now would you get the red or still with the cognac interior?
Still would have gone cognac!
Did the spacers work for the downpipe get rid of cel
Temporarily, just took longer for CEL to appear
@@AUTOIDTV would the jb4 take it away
BMWs 2JZ it is 😅
Nuffin. 🤦♂️
Total cost of these mods
We have spent around £7,000 in total on this car so far.
2JZ drive 😂😂
Jacks lost the plot I think
Why do you have a Toyota engine cover???
2J
I believe they swapped covers with a Supra, same B58 engine.
Hold on.. Toyota Engine cover.. I'm gonna pop over and see you one day Jack to discuss options for mine
Was that a Toyota badge on the engine cover?

Why would an aftermarket exhaust trigger a CEL…

How can this be a BMW and it has a TOYOTA badge on the engine cover ????????!!!!!!!!!!!
The Supra has the same engine as this car. They obviously swapped the cover from a Supra.
@@MitchM240 i found out it was a b58 bmw for the sake of Toyota didn’t want to built and ingeneer a new engine
