Learned a lot on suspension settings & mods on sports cars here. Besides engine I think suspension is one of the most interesting topics about cars ! Thx Joe keep them coming please.
I've done the KW sleeved coilovers on my car with spacers for the wheels. The look is amazing but the handling with their setup and the factory dampers is an amazing mix of handling and comfort. It can be totally aggressive in my M2 setting or docile cruiser in my M1 setting. Throw in my JB4 with a splash of E85, she performs so very well for me. Kudos on the upgrades
It’s so good seeing Dravit on the screen. I love seeing another car in Dravit captured on video. Good looking steering wheel. And in the US, we call it a “centering stripe” I’m going with 1830kg. Edit: 3,924 pounds, actual. Which is a Sherman tank. Are you doing a video on costs associated with the run in service? It’s complementary in the US. As is 3/36k services.
Really wish he would have posted a screenshot of his alignment settings before and after. It's very hard to find a shop that actually has track experience and can set up your car for it.
The 320D xdrive hire car I had last week was terrible in a straight line. Had to correct the steering every few seconds on the motorway. Definitely needed a full suspension setup...!
Explain something to me: If 4WD Sport = 70 rear 30 front, I don't understand when you say that it routes all the power to the rear until it starts to slip. Are you saying that when it senses slip, it will route up to 30% to the front? But wouldn't there be situations where it would need to route 100% to the front?
Very nice Video as always. Could you please remove the protective film from the M3 Logos on the Seats? I work for a dealership in Germany and our detailers also always forget to remove those 😅
Great review and insight into whats possible. As your car is brand new Joe, how does all the modifications and upgrades effect the manufacturers warranty? ..... I am a little nervous of invalidating my warranty
Thanks for another great video, Joe. Love the suspension stuff, so vast! And yes... the notorious BMW fidgety tramlining thing. My E61 is like a go cart on corners now, quite amazing for what it is... but on a straight road with undulations it's quite hard work. Anyone reading this, advice would be appreciated (probably hard without knowing my setup).
I just had a thought. I think it would be very interesting to see how a standard M3 Competition xDrive would compare to GRIILEZ here in a @carwow style drag race, roll race and (most interesting for me considering the upgrades received in this video) a brake test. I think it would also be very interesting to see how they would compare on track, so maybe when you have the time, something like that could be arranged🤷🏾♂. And thanks for the great video.
Hi Joe, If you had a choice between PFL rs3 and FL… What would you choose? The PFL sound is 10/10 But the FL has the good tech but the sound isn’t as good as the PFL…
Amazing mate, I’m waiting to get my new 340i tourer hopefully in June , i wanted it in Melbourne red but that was another 12 weeks to build time and £4500 🙈, so iv gone for the metallic white 😇
I’m literally watching the video as I’m writing this it just seems like everything this young man is talking about is fear, fear, fear if you don’t get this this will happen only 2% of the people in the world could drive that car to its limit ,the rest of us we’re just along for the ride .if he wasn’t selling stuff he’d be working at McDonald’s You don’t need 99% of what he’s selling just a good alignment and a good set ,tires oh yeah and some balls to drive the car.
This comment definitely wins for us 🥇 Get in touch with the team to claim your free Big Mac and Fries 🍟 oops sorry old habits die hard! Just for clarity you sign off this comment with “all you need is a good alignment and a good set of tyres” which is exactly what takes place in this video …. 🤷♂️ what we are discussing is the different geometry settings and how they affect handling and grip levels for the better 👍
All you need is good alignment, which is what happens in the video? I think you need to go check suspension secrets out. Or have a phone call with them. They are THE authority on suspension set ups. I’m not sure why MacDonald’s would need that? I’d hold the Big Mac, this kid probably still on happy meals.
Unusually this is a poor video, I don’t believe for a moment Ferrari etc mis out on performance that a small company such as this manage to ‘unlock’ a case of the emperors new clothes I fear.
You don't have to believe it, I'm guessing you've never driven a factory fresh Ferrari, they naturally understeer to protect their (mostly useless) owners.
@@JoeAchilles1 Perhaps however I have driven a number of factory fresh Ferrari’s a number of them as a guest on factory visits/launch events. Outside of this I’ve spent time with a number of development drivers and they too appear to think much of the aftermarket companies exist to simply remove money from people’s wallets. Maybe this company is different. The F12 never felt like it was set up for safety

Well though upgrades, waiting to see the M2 transformation
yup, i would describe my M2 as 'lively' when pushing on the road. And i love it!
Brilliant video, love how informative they are, especially on subjects that most people completely overlook, thanks for the great content

The bmw dealership mechanic can set your chasis to whatever you tell him....easy.
My Porsche has the gt2mr specs.
Yesssss that’s the content we want 🔥🔥🔥
Love when that bell notification goes off saying you uploaded!

Awesome video Joe. I love when you take the time to sit with the expert and give a full idiots guide breakdown of whats actually going on.
Great video ... I love the deep dive into suspension settings and their impact :)
X4 coming in June ,, what wheels will it come with? Nice M3 btw

Don't you mean "Making it Even Better" ? It's already awesome!
Awesome vlog again Joe always great content buddy
This is fantastic! Might have a trip to this place.
These guys clearly know their stuff. The guides on the website are great as well. Looking forward to see what they do with your M2 Comp
Such a nice spec Joe
*It looks so good in this colour must be amazing to drive*
I love this level of geekery, keep doing this type of video. Get some billet paddles, MSS springs and a EVENTURI intake next.
As someone else said, would appreciate it if you’d take the time to post your before and after settings so that some of us can also benefit. Thx!
Do you still have the 750?
Dope M3 !!
Another great video Joe👍🏼
Hi just wanted to know if the m4s tyres make a difference i have m4 with p zero and the back is just to playful. Do m4s have more grip in dry and wet?
Awesome vid mate! Such a cool car 💪
Very nice Video as always. Could you please remove the protective film from the M3 Logos on the Seats? I work for a dealership in Germany and our detailers also always forget to remove those 😅
Amazing stuff I'll keep them in mind for one day 😎 love your content!!

Also makes insurance more challenging.

Can someone please confirm if Joe is running any lowering springs in this video?
Hi Joe, If you had a choice between PFL rs3 and FL… What would you choose?
The PFL sound is 10/10
But the FL has the good tech but the sound isn’t as good as the PFL…
FL all day everyday, the power difference is crazy and you can make it sound great anyway
@@SH7SH7SH7 thanks mate ❤️
Another great video Joe 👌👏👍

Love it 👏
