Ah, the legendary 335, a car that Adam LZ is resurrecting from retirement, drawing parallels to the iconic Supra. This 2008 335I manual, with its striking coral red interior, holds a special place in Adam's heart, serving as a driving force behind his early business endeavors. Despite its modest beginnings, the 335 underwent a remarkable transformation, including a single turbo kit installation by PSI, elevating its performance to a staggering 750 horsepower. However, tuning challenges plagued the car, leading to a rollercoaster of reliability issues and setbacks, including a memorable win at a YouTuber Showdown.
The car's journey took a competitive turn as it ventured to Germany for laps on the ring, solidifying its status as a true race car. With BC Forge wheels, Brembo brakes, and e92 M3 components, the 335 underwent a significant overhaul, embracing its newfound identity. Yet, despite its impressive upgrades, the car faced persistent tuning dilemmas, hindering its performance consistency. Adam's quest for a solution to the n54 platform's tuning advancements reflects his unwavering dedication to unleashing the car's full potential.
As the team tackles wheel and wing maintenance, addressing fitment concerns and aesthetic enhancements, the 335's revival takes center stage. From LMS wheels to wood grain interior accents, each detail contributes to the car's unique charm and character. Plans for paint experimentation and film options hint at a fresh new look for the 335, signaling a reinvigoration of its presence on the road. With a keen eye for detail and a passion for automotive excellence, Adam LZ and his team embark on a journey to restore the 335 to its former glory, setting the stage for a thrilling automotive adventure.
