Thanks to E46Fanatics mambers Hans_ACS from Belgium and NickACS for the hook up. You guys were the greatest help. This is what makes me love this community, the desire to help out fellow enthusiasts. :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

[Alex Baumann]

:thumb: Love the carbon fiber look Clem! (I thought Carbon fiber was a darker color?)

Is that your car Clem? I liked that trim before but now I love it!...Gotta have it!

 

[Clem]

Thanks everyone.

Very nice, Clem.

I sent Phil the link He should be on Splash Mountain right now. Can't be like you and order an S3 out of the dealership so I'm just going to have to build mine slowly. Although some of the parts such as the suspension are not ACS so I'm gonna have to figure something out about that. Besides I'm afraid to ask what that engine is going to cost me. :eeps:

That spoiler would look amazing, it sets off the back end of the tourings nicely. Almost tempted to build an X-Road once this car is done Go for it.

:thumb: Love the carbon fiber look Clem! (I thought Carbon fiber was a darker color?)

Carbon fibre is usually a black and silver/grey weave. ACS so far is the only company that has a silver CF trim and the sedan version isn't even publicized. CEC doesn't even know about it!!! I actually firs saw it in a magazine on the X-Road. I had to get help from a fellow Fanatics member in Europe to get a set for me. AFAIK I have 1 of the only 2 sets in NA. The first being owned by a fellow Fanatics member.

Yup that's my car. If you haven't seen the exterior pics: http://www.bimmerfest.com/members//clem/ACS_E46/index.htm

They do have the coupe/M3 version readily available in NA :thumb: :thumb:

I will, but you must tell me where I can find out more about it! I sent e-mail to the ACS dealer in Helsinki - no word.

Help!

Want me check it with Aachen ?

Just check, the more he knows the more likely he is to buy

Can you get some S3 engine conversion specs for me. The site lists it's for a 328 but I have a 323 (same M52TU) and maybe find out if it's a complete crate motor or just parts.

TIA

Sure.

 

[Mr Paddle.Shift]

Clem, these ACS trims are really unique. So are they $$$$, $$$, $$ or $? I have something in the mail and should arrive end of this week. Will post some pics too.

:lmao:

They are $$$$$. Fill me in Vince

BTW: What do you know about ACS Exhausts? Performance etc etc.......

Debating on switch from my Active Autowerke to the ACS or Eisenmann.

Want me check it with Aachen ?

I just checked with ACS' own web page (in English) and there is no catalog - just nice pictures.

i also checked their Finnish dealer's web page (www.konig.fi/com) and they are moving their pages ... going out of business. Thus the lack of an e-mail reply.

Aachen? Is that the World HQ?

I may have sent them a mail last December about the chip upgrade+exhaust. Their reply (I tossed it ages ago) was similar to BMW.de when I asked about the M3 steering wheel: check with our Finnish dealer. Yawn.

No worries. I will try to call Helsinki tomorrow.

Thanks for your support.

I supposed it is time to give up on Hamann. Excellent service from them though!

Yes, Aachen is the place where all the corruption spreads from

They are very sensitive about the steering wheels (ask Vince ).

 

[Mr Paddle.Shift]

Sensible about steering wheels?? huh?? :dunno:

So Clem, when you getting the ACS wheel?
