Hello all, i just bought a new Z4 a few weeks back and although its a quick car with good torque all thorughout the powerband, I NEED MORE! i have been googling the web for sites that might carry SOME type of mod for a new Z4. My search has been unsucessful. I was wondering if anyone knew of any good site that would carry parts for a Z4 , something that would even be half as good as pfyc.com or zzperformance.com for all you grand prix owners.

I too am just about to take ownership of a Z4 3.0. As quick as it is, which is ok, more power would be far better as long as it does not screw up the warrantee.
white G u made typo (i hope) its 2.5 or 3.0 and i have a 3.0. And to the ladder, yes any engine mod that makes ur car go faster will void the warranty that is the downside, which is why many people wait a couple years before modding most sports cars. BMW make some of the best engines in the world so u gotta take ur risk and hope that u dont get the one in a million lemon car lol. and i dont kno why bmw even makes the z4 in the 2.5 liter. As far as im concerned the 2.5 is pussy and is a waste of damn money... my suggestion 3.0 or m3.

(Just being picky because of your ^comment It is LATTER as in the later one, not LADDER which are steps.
They make smaller engine variants because they are a euro car maker and there is a market for them.
There is a world of difference between a 3.0 and an M3..... so that must mean that you are a pussy too! (j/k, just chill with the comments which might offend)
Back on topic>>> Some of the quality tuners will offer their own warranty in place of the one they viod by modding. Nothing is ever going to be as solid as the BM warranty but it's a good second.

not callin anyone a pussy, and yea i meant latter lol ooops i juss test drove the 2.5 at the dealership and it was insanely weak.. i mean it was like comparable to a Grand Prix GTP. and like still a high high 30 grand vehicle... as far as the 3.0 and the m3 yeah there is a world of dif but all i was saying was the two steps in the BMW price ladder. 3.0 then m3....a s far as sports line. i mean if we wanna get crazy we can empty our piggy banks when we all turn 70 and go get the m5~! lol. and to all u 2.5 or 2.2 owners out there..... im sorry about ur mistake u made at the dealership... i really am .... (J/K) shits and giggles later all
