This weekend we’re heading to Brands Hatch for rounds 3 & 4 of the Time Attack Championship. Unfortunately, Tsuki, our K22 powered Honda NSX<\/strong><\/a> is suffering from head sealing issues and high intake temperatures. However, we’re pleased to say that our recently acquired BMW M240i will be making its racing debut in the NSX’s place!<\/p>\n

So, let’s have a look at the things we’ve done to it so far in preparation for its inaugural outing. Firstly, we turned our attention to the suspension. We purchased the car with an air ride system so the need for a set of coilovers that were able to withstand the rigours of track use and suitable for the road was paramount. Enter Yellow Speed Racing<\/strong><\/a>. We’ve utilised the ever reliable Dynamic Pro Sport kit<\/strong><\/a> on the BMW. Not only will this firm everything up for the track, but it’ll also retain OEM-like comfort for the road too. Johnny, co-director of Tegiwa, is super impressed with these coilovers out on the road!<\/p>\n
