Z4 3.0 short shifter install at Classic Image

Well Al and Stokes at Classic Image installed my Z4 3.0 short shifter kit from BMA on Saturday. Was tired of the "slop" in my stock unit. Took a bit of getting used to alright but i am hoping in the next 2 weeks that it will become "less notchy"
Definately quicker shifts.
Also had my lower oil pan off and all bolts retorqued, needless to say no "swimmers" but oil pump bolts were definately loose.
For the money Al charged to do this it was cheap insurance. I am driving 2500 to 2800 km a month and do not need anymore problems.

Next up, suspension and am hoping to find a set of stock BBS 15" euroweaves. After that, paint come winter.
Stay tuned........
