Joe, I really like the fact that, as well as reviewing cars, your channel showcases really good car related businesses like Suspension Secrets, Motech Performance and (last week) Ceramic Pro. They offer really good tips for drivers who might want to improve things on their cars. Great job.
Thank you buddy 👊
Love how humble you are Joe, too many people pretend to know more than they do
Thanks buddy, was so insightful talking to Matt, absolute genius 👌
I’ve literally just watched these guys on LLF. They do wonders, amazing work.
that M3 is gorgeous.
I think I need to visit ❤
Yes mate you would love it!
Best visual update what so ever, I just did the stance on my M135i.
Thanks Joe, very informative. Having them sort my M2 out for track days 🏁
The guy from Suspension Secrets knows his stuff. Very respectable. I think he can give Manthey Racing a run for their money when it comes to suspension setup :)
Totally agree mate, can't believe there are people on here questioning why I would change the base/safe setup. 👊
Thanks for you comment. We have much more to come soon too!
I drive a truck for a living and love the views when i go along there joe
You probably get a much better view from up in the cab mate 👌
I thoroughly enjoyed this episode on your new M3 Competition and the journey you taking with this incredible machine.
Agree about the tyres Joe. I have just put a set on my TT and it has transformed the ride
Thanks Joe for another great car enthusiast video! Could you please share the alignment report (incl before and after values) of your new M3?
You got to admire Joe. Modding his M3 so early in the game. That's why we like these CZcams guys. They do crazy stuff so we don't have to.
Getting a proper alignment done isn’t crazy....
Awesome video, great editing I like that transition with slowly turning down volume of music👌, a lots of useful and interesting information and a lots of yup in that dialog😂definitely great for drinking game
Haha thanks man 👊
Interesting and educational video. Of course, the amazing M3 remains the star of the show😍.
Thanks buddy 👊👊
Thank you very much. Impressive techinical and driving know-how, a highly enjoyable presentation. And awesome rural driving shots of the two cars on the road👍
Good idea getting a proper performance alignment off the go! Even a small change can make a big difference, plus you never if it got knocked outta wack somewhere.
💯 buddy, made a big difference 👌
Hi from Singapore. Enjoyed the video, as usual!
This is a movie Joe! Top stuff! Dribbling at the thought of you tracking it (Circuit track, not alignment tracking) 😂
Thanks man
Quality video Joe, very interesting subject too. Enjoy your new car.
Awesome, awesome, awesome. Have I already said that it's awesome?
Really love this car 👌🏻. Also nice to see the Cat & Fiddle, close to where I'm from
Another informative & entertaining video. Thank you Joe. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you mate 👊
Matt really is a "wizard" never a dull moment full of Information
Excellent video Joe I wish there was someone here in Canada to tweek my M2 suspension but as I understand that benefits right hand drive cars mainly as the original cars designed to be left hand drive so as I watched car mad dad original video these guys essentially set up the cars as if they were left hand drive or something to that affect . Either way excellent video I love the M3 more and more watching your content
Love your content, thank you! Do you have any opinions on lowering a G80? I think they sit a little high, but I wouldn't want to inadvertently compromise the handling performance. Any advice?
Nice to see you in my neck of the woods Joe. Driven the Cat and Fiddle road my whole life. Popular with motorbikes and sadly too many fatalities, hence the 50mph average speed limit. But, as you rightly said, still an entertaining road within the limit.
Thanks John, lovely part of the world 👌
I need, yes need an M3 Comp, stunning 😍
These guys totally transformed my 981 Cayman 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Very interesting video! I totally agree about the Michelin 4s! I’m on my 2nd set on my F82 and I completely love them! Great wet and dry traction and quiet as well. I’ll never use any other tires 👍
Have you compared the 4S with the 4 by any chance?
Brilliant Video Joe !!
Great video again 👍 My F82 with 3/4 of fuel and driver in was weighted on these scales at 1738.5 !
Yeah he must've got confused about the weight (mine was 1638kg with full tank) also camber, iirc f series is about the same. -1.8 deg front on the G series isn't enough for track work, shame they didn't make it adjustable.
@@samellio it's my road car with occasional track use
Found suspension secrets by accident and planning a visit for a chat later this week. I’ve heard many good things regarding them 🇬🇧👍
Like before i watch as i know its good 👌🏽
Absolutely brilliant Joe. Really interesting stuff with regards to the tyres and suspension.
With regards to the Cat and Fiddle road, you should do it on your push bike. You'd love it.👍
Haha maybe once I'm a little fitter again 👌
There's a charity ride which Rourke cycle's put on every September October time. It's a 50 mile ride which is for systic fibrosis. It's really good fun and takes the cat and fiddle route in. 👍
Great Video Joe 👏👌🏻👍
Really nice content content Joe
Does changing suspension geometry negatively impact stability control's effectiveness? Particularly with the new 10-stage system, seems like it'd be honed into the stock setup.
I know its not related to this video but is there a chance you can get the GTI clubsport back and drive it on that track and compare it with the R? Im torn choosing between those 2....
Amazing commentary 🙌🏼
Tires alignment and spacers will have the g80 stanced like it was meant to be 🔥🔥🔥
What a gorgeous interior, nice choice Joe. Can't wait to see what you do to it.
Great car looks very oem+ now 👍🏆
Thanks guys, great little visit 👌
i was going to buy pirelli p zero to my car but now when you swapped it to the michelins , may i ask you why? i might buy the michelins instead if the pirellis were bad?
It's that time to enjoy and support
This is good Jo keep up the good work 💪
I couldn’t tell if that was a road force wheel balancer. Do road force balancers really give you a better result?
Nice sound track!
Such a great color, love it.
Really great stuff again Joe 🔥 I’m considering these mods when mines finally built, what’s the round about cost of the spacers & geometry reconfiguring?
Mega passionate video, I keep saying it don’t change what you’re doing! Not that it matters, but I’m intrigued how efficient is the S58 given I can get 40+mpg with B58? What was the average mpg on the run up and down?
Did you know the Michelin ps4 is available is 2 different compounds. The “normal” one and also the oem bmw spec, which is the one that comes from the factory. I’m pretty sure the Bmw spec has a Bmw logo on the sidewall. Also the Bmw spec tyre is stiffer for enchanted responsiveness and feedback but may be very slightly less effective in rain.
Is that tyre out yet?
I know it's getting developed by Michelin.
Yes buddy these are * rated
How’s come it didn’t come with the OEM spec PS4’s?
Sorry don't quite understand ; So whats the best camper for the rear, if 1.8 is good for the front? Should they be the same? Thanks
Love these more technical videos. What profile tyres are you running on the PS4, 275??
Would you recommend that suspension if I’m not tracking the car , I live in CA USA mostly freeway and some highway use? My G80 is in order same color as yours
It would be great to see a review on the Pirelli vs Michelin tyres as apparently the pzero were bestoke for the m3 where the michis just off the shelf for all cars. What is the difference?
“I’ll be back here soon with the M2”. Joe living his best life.
Integrale ! Let’s see more of that 🧐
Great video quality 👌
Hi joe! So in the UK you're allowed to modified your car even if its still financed ? Here in south Africa your motorplan will be scraped off
Did you fit the car with the BMW spec tire? It makes a huge difference between a general 4s and a BMW spec 4s
Yes
Most of the people start with power mods but I think that this is the correct way to begin,tyres,suspension setup and brakes if necessary
Nice one mate. 👍🏽
Great Video! I do prefer the wheels on the 4 series at Motech over the M3 wheels!!!
Got a question, why spacers? Looks or performance?
Nice video - and love the plate! Thought about getting a CTRLshift plate? I note CT51HFT is for sale for £250 from DVLA…
Hello Mr Joe Achilles, wouldn't it be great if the brake calipers would be in the color of your interior? Greetings from Belgium
Only an observation mate, but let's say you put the tyres in storage for two years does the rubber not degrade in any way or are they stored in a special way. Just wondering. Thanks 🤔🤔
Tyre Reviews did a recent vid on PS4S* developed specifically for this car, did you go for those or the aftermarket PS4S?
yes
Amazing video
How long do tyres last sitting around?
Did you get oem 4s as they differ from aftermarket compounds.?
I got lucky it came with 4s
Yes
Do you lose your warranty if you do upgrades in a brand new car?
Cheers for sharing Joe. I think you have a great looking car and I’m enjoying watch you make the mods you want. I would love to do the same if I had the opportunity. Keep up the good work. (Kal - Auckland, NZ)
Any chance you can share the final alignment specs?
Nice car Joe. Did you get the regular PS4S tire or the OE BMW PS4S*?
* marked 👌
Hey Joe, did you get the homologated * rated PS4S’s or just the standard tyre?
Yes
So Joe, did you buy the normal PS4S or did you get the BMW M3/4 specific PS4S*?
*
What happens if you don’t balance the tires? And will you void the warranty by getting suspension upgrade? Kool video
The car vibrate, and increase at More speed,the Tires aged not well, and maybe damage suspension damage with the long run.
What are the final numbers for toe and rear camber?
How is it being a tall guy and driving both the m3 and m2?
Are the new rubber with the ‘star’ made for BMWs ? 🙂
Yes
It would be kool to see this gent talking cars with Jay Leno. Does the traction vary with the same car but the steering wheel is on the left side vs right side?
Yay new donuts :P
I strongly agree with you Joe when it comes to Michelin vs PZero.
I have the Pirellis on mine, now I really wanna try a set of the Michelin
After the tyre reviews video did you go for the OEM PS4S?
Yes
Average speed camera? Couldn’t believe my eyes. Absolute shame!! Great video 👌🏻
Is the new m3 awd?
Did you get the BMW star Michelin’s? Great video as always
Yes
I like the car joe
I thought low profile tires require a road force balance?
Hey Joe! Where you able to get the BMW * PS4S? They are different from OE PS4S.
Yes, not to say drastically improved.
Was looking for exactly this comment if someone already asked 😬
Seeing how significantly different lap times and steering feel is between the non * and * P4S the car would probably have been faster on the * Pirellis than on non * P4S... So hope he bought the BMW M spec * P4S’
Yes *
@@JoeAchilles1 Good Job 💪👍
It's a crime that our awesome country roads are now becoming littered with average speed cameras, with silly low speed limits. It makes me question why even bother having a reasonably powerful car for uk road driving these days. Great video though Joe, apologies for my rant. :)
And all the pot holes that damage our vehicles
You think it's only happening in your country? It's happening everywhere.
@@neilmcmahon that's because we allow it.. just like we are allowing dangerous toxic jabs that are going to kill hundreds of millions to be given out to everyone. We are cattle mate and the average joe just absolutely loves it.
@@formertenant9276 I haven't got any jab. I'm sure you've put plenty of toxic substances into yourself and it was your own decision.
@@neilmcmahon Depends on what you would define as toxic. I seriously suggest avoiding the jab and listneing to the doctors and professors who are putting certain individuals on notice that continued authorised use after scientific findings proving the dangers of the vaccine will be tried for war crimes... not my words but the words of the lawyers/professors initiating these lawsuits.
It's the little things
Lovely
Can you please do a night drive POV video and show us how these laser light work
Not car related but just put Pilot Road 5’s on my XJR1300, what a difference from the Bridgestone BT’s
Great to hear, my buddy Chris (from 44 teeth) always raves about Michelin for bikes too 👌👌👌
Joe, is that a huge chunk of paint missing from your new rims already? 😬 I bet there was a few swear words spoken out loud when that happened.. Hopefully it was just a trick of light on the tire machine. Great video!! 👍
I noticed that too. Almost cried!
I noticed that also. :(
No buddy, was a chunk of mud, I wouldn't have put that on film if it was. 👌
@@JoeAchilles1 👍 , I hoped and assumed it was something like that. It was hard to tell all the way over here in Minnesota, USA 🇺🇸 😊
The BMW M3&4 series Grills are supposed to be inspired by the 1930s 328.
Bit of a random question what mpg are you averaging?
About 25 pre run in 👌
@@JoeAchilles1 solid numbers joe.🔥
