my M3 CSL

I started sometime ago a calendar type thread about my CSL which I stopped updating.
I think I will put this calendar here and start posting the updates here

A few things about my CSL.
My CSL is a Swiss version CSL, it has been sold and driven June of 2004.
It has automatic clima, rain sensor, radio cd, xenon lights and speed limiter removal.
Being a Swiss CSL also means it does not have the front license plate holder, as our plates here are tiny and amazing !

I got my CSL October 2008 with 44k km on the clock.
It had one owner.
It's a Silvergrey car (the fast ones)



Today the car has 92k km and a few modifications.
- AP racing front and rear brakes (front CP5555 with PF discs and Pagid RS14 / rear AP calipers with OEM discs and Pagid RS14)
- Powerflex ARB bushes front and rear
- GC racing front wishbone bushes
- Powerflex rear trailing arm bushes
- Supersprint Race lightweight backbox
- Ohlins TTX suspension with GC front top mounts, GC front ARB drop links, AST rear top mounts and Eibach springs
- Recaro bottom cushion in the driver's seat

Here are two photos of the recaro cushion
It turned very good, as I am tall.

Working on the rear brakes.
The securing bolt had been damaged and I had to get it out the hard way.
Lost many hours.



Then, I installed new OEM discs and Pagid RS14 pads.

An oil and oil filter change.
Then, a few photos.

I created an AUX IN module and then connected it to the radio cd.
The circuit is quite simple and costs around 15 EUR to make.

So on 31st August 2012 I started the big project of replacing all the bushes and spherical joints of the rear axle.

Here is the picture of the cracked bush.
