Update 35: new KW Springs

Martin Hennerbichler — Tue, 13 Sep 2022 09:11:58 +0000

I had a problem with the travel of the wheel on the RedBull Racetrack in Austria because the passenger-side wheel was touching the Fender in T10.
The Suspension (KW DDC Plug&Play) is on the highest possible point and it is all ready nearly too low (326mm).
So I talked to KW and the sold me new Springs for the Front Suspension.
I replaced the old Springs „2041 04G19“ with the new the stiffer ones „2025 23M22“ and now I was able to bring down the adjustable Coilover Spring Plate by one cm.
And that gives me the accepted hight by the Austrian TÜV (340mm between the Fender and the middle of the Wheel).

Martin Hennerbichler — Fri, 08 Jul 2022 10:04:01 +0000

Update 33: M Lower Control Arm and Tension Strut

Martin Hennerbichler — Mon, 11 Oct 2021 18:02:00 +0000

Today the M2/3/4 Lower Control Arm and Tension Strut got installed.
In my case the upgrade adds -1.2° of camber.

After a Testdrive, I have to say it increases grip and speed of turning, and I’m very happy with the ///M Parts.

Update:

I converted back to the Original Lower Control Arm and Tension Strut because the Passenger Side Wheel was touching the Fender on the RedBull Racetrack in Austria (T10).
Now the wheel has enough place and the camber of the fronts is actually -2°.

Update 25: 10,25″ Display with Wireless Carplay

Martin Hennerbichler — Mon, 25 Nov 2019 11:11:10 +0000

The Display from Avinusa.com is outstanding and works perfectly. I can highly recommend this product. The big Touchdisplay makes it easy to work with it.

I have also tested two other Boxes but without success.
The worst box came from Skandinav.de and did not work. The Support is horrible, and most of the time you get only a “received message” but no answer. They are incompetent, so I can not recommend the Products from this Company.

Martin Hennerbichler — Fri, 27 Sep 2019 08:15:56 +0000

After I lost one of my Carbon Mirror Caps I bought a new Set of Mirrors from Carbon Invasion.
It is a Mirror Conversion Set with a plastic upper, a lower part and a carbon mirror cap.
Looks like M2C Mirrors…
The fitting accuracy is not 100% but for that price it is OK!

Martin Hennerbichler — Thu, 28 Feb 2019 17:07:52 +0000

I got the KW DDC Plug&Play adjustable Coilover suspension!
My first impressions are that it is a great product.
In Comfort Mode, the suspension is smoother and in Sport/Sport+ Mode it is even harder, I like it very much :-). I also added 10mm H&R Trak+ Spacers to all Wheels.
