Best mod would be removing that barbaric front lip

Idk... I remember hearing about 996 brakes actually stopping worse than stocks with textar pads for the street. Where it shines was heat resistant on the track but the competition/csl rotors wear down quick on the track. I had them ready to install but I decided to sell them and stick with stock.

My word for your M3 is”STUNNING!” The overall stance, wheel fitment, how clean she is, along with your MODS, make her a Looker. See where you when to black engine grills. The black fender gills give a tucked look. Haven’t read all the comments, but what are you wearing on the front and rear axles for shoes? Keep it Up.

I would go 18s personally (currently running 265/35/18). 18s give you more tire options and rides better too.

Never take e46 M3 modification advice from someone who replaces god-tier tires (pilot sports) with Continentals. 1) catless headers: The misconception is this car has a restricted exhaust system, which is NOT true. If you convert to catless, you'll LOOSE POWER, not gain. That's why his e46 M3 is no longer able to do the famous 2nd-gear chirp at 1:07 . To convince of "additional 15whp," you shoulda showed the before/after results of your dyno runs. 2) Coilovers: Yes, it'll look better sitting lower, but make no mistake, it WON'T handle better. From factory, this car has one of the stiffest/most balanced suspensions. Damn near impossible to improve. 3) Brakes: This car is fitted with one of the best braking systems. It feels like a PlayStation 4 controller. However, they fade ON A TRACK after prolonger hard braking. So if you don't plan on tracking your e46 M3, you don't need brake mods. This is a sportscar Road&Track magazine calls g.o.a.t. I find it absolutely hilarious when people say they can make it better 😅 It's not a damn 350z

I must say that your worship of the brand is remarkable, but you’re misunderstanding the E46, M3 platform. She’s begging to breath, be way better suspund, go quicker, stop faster, be modern with WiFi and better ergonomic’s. This version is a more capable than what the factory provided.

There was a forum member way back in the day who sold them out of the UK. While you done need a tune, I'd still recommend getting one to optimize it. Enjoy the M3!

How does everyone feel about status gruppe headers? My coworker bought his long ago new and never used them. I’ve been hearing fitment is not so good but time will tell So far I’ve done an eventuri intake and Bluebus Bluetooth module

Front calipers need to be machined at the mounting points, rear calipers need the lines reversed. After that, just need RR brackets

Not at all. It's all down to your pad choice. I'm running the OEM Porsche pads so there's no squeal. If you're opting for a more track/aggressive pad setup, you're more likely to find they'll squeal when cold
