I know the CSL sits lower, but what other differences are there? There are 2 part numbers for KW V3's, one for the CSL, one for the M3 - why?

No i was going past you too fast to introduce myself;)

In all seriousness, get your brakes sorted, ie big brake kit, ap kit for sale on here, then get kw clubsports with topmounts, it will totally transform your car, its like chalk and cheese mate.

I can guarantee you will pass most out there in the csl's. It will come down to driver.

You booking oulton on 9th september??

I used custom settings, papers are in the boot of my car so i cant remember. But they were similar to yours.

Yeh it was fine, although my settings where for dry track, did not even bother changing damper settings to allow for the wet.

Im lying it was awesome. Really got to grips with the csl, roll on 9th sept and hope its dry

Make sure you get your corner-weighting done when you've fitted the new gear. Best done with 1/2 tank of fuel and you sitting in the drivers seat. Then she'll be amazing!
