BMW's Valvetronic variable valve lift mechanism actually replaces conventional throttle-body controlled power delivery. An electronically-actuated eccentric shaft varies the intake valve lift height when you press down on the accelerator pedal, regulating power. The importance of a properly functioning eccentric shaft sensor is therefore obvious. Poor fuel economy, engine power loss, and starting difficulty are just a few of the symptoms of a failing ES sensor. ECS offers OEM BMW and VDO Eccentric Shaft Sensors, as well as a service kit including a valve cover & ES sensor gasket.

The three most critical and widely cited dimensions of your vehicle's suspension geometry - camber, caster, & toe-in - are what triangulate your wheels and position them to perform in a specified way on the road. 
 Schwaben Specialty Tools has developed a superb method of measuring this critical dimension - The Magnetic Camber/Caster Gauge. Simply place the device on the wheel hub or brake disc & note a positive or negative reading.

Most aftermarket boost gauges look like add-ons. The dial numbers and lighting don't match the factory gauges. Many use an afterthought mounting system that looks cheesy. We think your boost gauge should be easy to see & blend with your interior. That's why we've developed this boost gauge kit just for your car. Our exact fit pods install in the center vent. The gauge design and lighting blend with other gauges to give it a classy, factory-installed look. We've even prepared a detailed photo tutorial outlining the installation, so the fun can start as soon as you open the box.

These quality books are carefully edited and illustrated. A worthwhile investment for your BMW E9x 3 Series.

The three most critical and widely cited dimensions of your vehicle's suspension geometry - camber, caster, & toe-in - are what triangulate your wheels and position them to perform in a specified way on the road. Camber is of special concern to the enthusiast because of its susceptibility to change under the influence of different wheel arrangements and ride heights. Schwaben Specialty Tools has developed a superb method of measuring this critical dimension - The Magnetic Camber Gauge. Simply place the device on the wheel hub or brake disc & note a positive or negative reading.

Why use wheel studs instead of wheel bolts? When removing and installing wheels on cars with wheel bolts, the process can be frustrating. Holding the wheel up with your legs, lining up the holes, and threading the bolts all at the same time - there is an easier method. Studs. Wheel studs also allow the use of varying length wheel spacers - a highly convenient feature for those that anticipate using different spacer size setups in the future.

While the BMW E9X 3 Series is capable of sustained, high-performance driving, its suspension system is not without flaws. Specifically, the rear trailing arm fitted to these models has a tendency to fail without symptoms, potentially leaving you stranded without a critical suspension component. ECS has solved this issue with a meticulously engineered Performance Rear Trailing Arm, made from aluminum & better designed to withstand the demands placed on it. Not only is the unit more robust & dependable than the factory unit, it's also lighter, reducing unsprung weight.

The E9X M3 features some truly stunning power with plenty of room for upgrades with its powerful V8 engine, but with great horsepower greater stopping power is needed to slow those ponies down.

They not only have the stopping power needed but are also other head turning options for the enthusiasts that demand the best performance and appearance.
