Vivid Racing’s BMW 335I project car is back in business after being sent out to R&D. Some great additions have recently been added. First we wanted to step up the look and stance of the car with the new lowering springs. We added Volk TE37 Mag Blue 19 wheels. The stickys are Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires in a staggard fitment. The front tires are 235/35/19 and the rears are 265/30/19.
Next we wanted to give the car some serious braking. Even though the factory brakes are quite large, the vehicles power is definitely stronger then the brakes. We had Rotora develop a big brake kit off of our 335I. The front is a 6piston caliper with a 355mm rotor and the rear is a 4piston caliper also with a 355mm rotor. The kit includes steel braided brakes and brake pads. To give the pedal feel a firm response under all condition, we used Motul RBF600 Brake Fluid.
Finally, we revisited our exhaust system by Agency Power to produce something that made great power, looked flawless, and sounded amazing. The new Agency Power catback exhaust system includes titanium tips, single muffler design, and 2.5 full 321 polished stainless steel piping.

I’m wondering about the performance of Rotora big brakes. I have the Rotora 4-piston big brakes on the front of my 2g, and I was thinking of swapping them out before I take it to the track. Rotora just doesn’t come to mind when I think of track proven brakes.
I was thinking of going with Brembo or StopTech.
All depends on how you drive. i run Brembo on the 996TT, but have done the Rotora on many M3 cars. Works great!
are you guys going to be selling the exhaust for the 335i? i have a buddy who drives a black one and he is looking for parts. I had told him to hit you up a while back but a guess you guys didnt really have anything for it yet.
We have a new short shifter and BOV pipe. If you still talk to him, tell him to hit us up for them for FREE.
hey vivid, I have a 2008 e92 335i coupe and am looking for parts. please get in cotact with me and let me know what you have in development and what you can offer me! thanks!
ill do thanks for posting! Where do you live? Put some pics of your car in the First Stop.
I live in northern CA, it is a saphire black fully loaded 335i 6 sp manual. I have a procede v3 in it right now, but that is about it for performance mods. I will post some pics as soon as I can transfer the pics as soon as I get the transfer cable for my new phone.
