Holding the traction button for about 5 secs permanently switches it off which is great fun in a dirt road ect.

When it snowed last March I still had budget tyres on mine & it was fine with snow mode on much better than my E60.

 

I tried it on mine, my traction stays on even though its same year as yours.  I've got to do the 'pedal dance' to turn it off supposedly.

DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THERES A AFTER MARKET STEERING WHEEL BOSS / HUB FOR THE MK3 GS ?  iVE GOT A STEERING WHEEL I WANT TO FIT BUT CANT SEEM TO FIND A BOSS.  PLEASE HELP

I thought they had reverse lights on the US spec rear clusters.  I'll have to fit an extra rear fog light somewhere..I'll let you know how I get on with it.

Thanks Dave, red is a standard sporty looking colour, may change colour later....  White with Google logo 😄.  

I' didn't realise that US spec cars didn't have reverse lights.

Yes. I would rewire an additional fog light somewhere. Probably a discreet thin one under the rear bumper. Not really worried about the markings on the light, as mot testers won’t really notice. 

your probably right.  I'll have to source some us spec rear inner lights.

Found some oe numbers for the rear lights :

81591 30220 - os

81581 30280 - ns

81585 30280 x 2 loom

HAS ANYONE WIRED IN THESE REAR LIGHTS ON THE BOOT LID TO COME ON WITH THE REAR SIDELIGHTS? I NEED TO DO THESE..

DONT WRITE OFF THE EBC BRAND BECAUSE OF THE GREEN STUFF PADS, THE YELLOW STUFF PADS WORK FROM COLD AND CAN SCRUB OFF SO MUCH SPEED IN A VERY SHORT DISTANCE.  GIVE IT A SECOND CHANCE 🙂

I agree.  Yellow stuff are amazing pads.  I'm getting yellow stuff next.

the link to the bumper you've just put up is slightly different, but similar... wonder if it look nice.  mines lower so may look better than in the pics..

I'm possibly wanting a stylish 4th generation GS bumper on my 3rd gen GS450h. Not sure it works with the high beam lamps there..  Anyone done this?

I was bored so had some fun with the brakes... They were just weathered calipers so I cleaned them up and painted them red.  The discs are dimpled to give the race look.  I didn't drill them as it may affect structural integrity.  I'll change them later when I'm bored..

excellent work, ill be doing mine very soon.  the outer pad wont go in. I assume this is because the silder hasn't moved over enough

I have a gs450h 2006. they are 310mm vented, with inboard shoes. here are some dimensions maybe can help

DIAMETER : 310MM

THICKNESS : 18MM

CENTRE DIAMETER : 62MM

OVERALL HEIGHT : 68MM

Don’t buy lowering spring. Go for coilovers. Mine are still very comfy, oe shockers are too expensive. I bought a full set of BC coilovers ant they’re great. Car looks good too in my opinion. Handles great!

before...

after...
