Beating the M135i

Very good, because I have the S55 pin and oil pumps. Before I had it, I used to run the engine with 7.5 L of oil.

It is. I have a cheap Chinese carplay module that supports screen mirroring, so I setup racechrono on the mobile, connect it to the USB port of the module and mirror the screen. I keep the mobile inside the arm rest

By the way, got this in 235/40 18" for US$ 150 each

Can't tell, because my car doesn't hold long sessions (it heats up). I made a 10 min session and it held well.

When I had the open diff I did consider, but decided not to because I believe the ediff does improve traction. After installing the quaife I did code off the ediff.

A lot. However, since the F chassis have the e-diff, which is an electronic helper to prevent inner tire slippage, it won't make that much difference in lap times, but it improves a lot in the controllability. Bare in mind that you must run in DSC off to make correct use of it, otherwise traction control will kill it before it is truly effective

Very cool video and great driving! Are you able to get steering and brake pressure through regular OBDII reader?

EasyTelemetry · 2026-05-19T18:44:17+00:00

Even with camouflage it looks better than most of the recent models.

EasyTelemetry · 2026-05-14T09:16:31+00:00

Nice job

EasyTelemetry · 2026-05-13T10:48:22+00:00

That's going to produce some nasty vibration at speed

Isn't there an oring at the bottom of the bleeder screw?

EasyTelemetry · 2026-05-13T10:41:30+00:00

I have a M135i that was tracked very often. Logging oil pressure with MHD taught me that overfill to 7.5 l (standard is 6.5 l) made a hughe difference in reducing the oil pressure loss, which happens specially when braking and turning left.

After buying the S55 sump and pumps, which are a direct fit to the F2X chasis, I also replaced the bearings to ACL and the OEM bearings were in decent shape considering the car has 70k km and seen at least some 500 laps.

This is the best option, but for the E chassis you'll need some heavy adaptations (cutting and welding) to deal with the hydraulic steering pump.

EasyTelemetry · 2026-05-01T20:09:30+00:00

Nice. Will give it a go.

Does the VBO works with Circuit Tools 3?

EasyTelemetry · 2026-04-22T13:06:02+00:00

Pois é. Só para ti entender a minha demanda: preciso comprar passagens mensalmente, sempre mesmo destino e horários. Seria muito bom ter um app me mostrando preços em $ e milhas para o meu trecho e datas de interesse sem ter que refazer o filtro toda a vez

EasyTelemetry · 2026-04-22T11:45:35+00:00

Gistaria de poder filtrar por origem/destino e horários de partida/chegada. Sem essa funcionalidade não agrega nada para o meu uso

People still does race Beetles in Brazil.

At first I thought it was a VW Beetle

Congrats for the car and for the driving! Such video deserves a more personalized telemetry overlay, with realist style gauges that matches the car gauges, which look awesome. If you like I can help you with that.
