You should do a walk around video of the car and mods, and what issues you’ve had with the car over the 190km. I’ve had my car from new and is on 55k miles, totally stock apart from a few suspension mods. Love the fact that you have refrained from messing with the engine and just concentrated on further improving the handling. 👊🏼
@@SuperExige The mods are listed in the video description and it are a small list of mods. I guess there is not a lot more to tell about the few modifications. The issues outside warranty were luckily rather minimal. At 150.000 Km I had a small oil leak in the valve cover from a worn out gasket. This was replaced with a new gasket. When the valve cover was removed, that area was also walnut blasted to make the valves and all clean again. At one point (130.000 Km) the original plastic charge pipe broke (they all have it at one point) and was replaced with a metal charge pipe from FTP. The issues I had, that were fixed under BMW warranty was a longer list; new manual gearbox (+ new clutch), small leak in the cooling system (nothing serious), new bottom seating part of the driver seat (leather was pealing off prematurely), recall (leak) of rear diff, new part of the exhaust (the flap at the rear that controls the noise was broken).
@@Franzino yeah I saw the list of upgrades in the video description. Thanks for taking the time out to document all the niggles you’ve had during your ownership. New gearbox and clutch is a big one!! I’ve had the rear light clusters replaced under warranty and the amplifier, and the idler pulley. Other than that it’s been extremely reliable. How do you find the JRZ for daily driving and what made you go for these over KW/Bilstein or any of the other coilovers?
Awesome !! 🙌

The recording equipment it seems, also has high mileage, as sound was only recorded to one channel lol. Nice lap and great car though.
Indeed...now that you mention it...the right sound channel is a bit off. Need to check the mic and the Go Pro; both are the same age as the car ;)
