James’ 987.1 boxter went home to enjoy this beautiful late fall weather after some preventative maintenance.
-Inspected IMS Bearing(This is the larger non serviceable bearing, so removed the grease seal to allow adequate lubrication and inspected its condition. This still involves removing the support fl**ge for the bearing which requires removal of the timing chain tensioners
-Replaced the rear main seal
-Replaced the clutch and flywheel
-Replaced the failing oil air separator and its associated hoses(A substantially easier repair with the transmission already removed)
-Liqui Moly oil change
-Prior to repairs, performed the pre inspection process we outlined in an earlier video we posted a while back. Checked cam phase angles with Piwis, dropped the oil pan to inspect for foreign metallic debris or chain guide debris, and scoped the cylinders with a camera to check for bore scoring.

This boxter gets a clean bill of health and ready to be enjoyed worry free! Count on Golden Era Motorsport for expert level repair by at a reasonable price.

Always appreciate a clean example of an E92 M3.
This was just a simple DCT transmission service, brake fluid flush, oil leak diagnosis.

Sometimes even reputable aftermarket parts manufacturers have issues! This was a head scratcher but learned some valuable information. I love modifying cars but sometimes it can be very frustrating! Trust Golden Era Motorsport to help support your European cars performance ambitions.

An odd rainy day duo. Theres a trend where when something comes in the shop, it becomes a pattern

Whats your pick? The E64 M6 with its high revving S85 V10 and manual transmission, or the F12 M6 with its tuned S63 twin turbo V8 producing earth rotating torque?

Always enjoy the privilege of working on an E39 M5.

Matt’s Anthracite in the shop for some maintenance, an E60 brake master cylinder retrofit, and fixed an issue with the sunshade. The master cylinder retrofit is to improve brake pedal feel by increasing the bore size of the brake master. The E39 5er(especially the M5) suffer from a typically low, spongey brake pedal and this aims to improve that. Where Matt’s M5 has a Stoptech trophy BBK on all 4 corners increasing the total volume of the calipers, this is especially pertinent.

Work we performed:
-Oil change
-Transmission fluid change
-Differential fluid change
-E60 brake master cylinder retrofit
-Brake flush with Motul RBF660
-Engine air filters
-Pollen filters
-Fuel filter
-Advised and rotated tires in preparation for some track time
-Made an adjustment to the headliner so it doesn’t chafe on the sunshade

This is the first E39 M5 I ever got to drive 10 years ago and its a pleasure to still work on it today. I’ve owned mine for 5 years and put over 70k on it, have driven maybe a dozen different examples over the years and still find myself obsessed. A Golden Era car to the fullest.

Alex decided to void that warranty and extract more performance from his 2026 RS3. The 8Y generation has had quite a few improvements over the 8V in terms of driving experience, I could not believe how good the steering feel and turn in was in this car.
We put together a nice performance package with Unitronic parts as they just released support for the 8Y recently.
We went ahead and performed:
-ECU unlock with Uniconnect
-Catted downpipe
-Larger intercooler
-Flex fuel kit with controller and bigger port injectors(These utilize DI and PFI stock, however the port injectors are merely to keep the intake valves clean)
-Turbo Inlet and AWE intake

This car rips! Can’t wait to see what its like with some ethanol. The flex fuel kit is really cool because like other platforms it utilizes an oem GM flex fuel sensor and allows the DME to adapt to varying ethanol content in the fuel vs having to run a precise mixture in the tank, which can be very difficult to measure accurately when using ethanol from the pump which often varies quite a bit from its advertised content.

Syed’s AP2 S2000 received a set of Ohlins road and tracks and an HKS cat back. The HKS exhaust is the best fitting exhaust I have ever installed and Ohlins are some of the best suspension for a street driven car. Ohlins arrive completely disassembled which is nice since I like to grease the threads for the ride height and spring preload adjustment collars to keep them adjustable long term.

We had the pleasure of working on this imported FD RX7 recently. The story behind this car is cool too, its owner Chris was stationed in Okinawa Japan and had purchased the car while living there and had thoroughly enjoyed it in Japan during his time there, then imported the car when he came home!

The car was in the shop to address a leaking steering rack and a bump steer concern, which we found a bent sway bar end link and roll center INcorrecting tie rod ends had been fitted. We replaced the rack, inner tie rods, sourced oem outer tie rod ends and replaced the sway bar end links.

We are comfortable with taking on Japanese classics as well. With TJ around the shop more we have a wealth of knowledge on hand to handle cars like this and with a background in high end cars, Golden Era Motorsport delivers the quality you’ve come to expect!

Luke’s gorgeous well kept E46 M3 in the shop on friday to replace the front wheel bearings to resolve a brake squeal/brake drag concern. I’ve worked on and drove a couple dozen E46 M3s over the years and this example is one of the finest.

Josh’s supercharged M coupe in for some maintenance and small items. Z3 M coupe is one of my personal favorite Bmws. This one has some very tasteful modifications and an awesome, rare set of Jonesmechanical “Super star” wheels.

Work we performed:
-Diagnosed airbag light, found failed passenger seat belt retractor
-Supercharger oil change
-Replaced both belts
-Replaced lower radiator hose, expansion tank, and all new clamps on the rad hose and expansion tank hoses
-Brake fluid flush and flushed the clutch line
-checked and advised on a suspected oil leak, found it was residue from prior power steering hose failure. Thoroughly degreased the affected area.

Classic M cars are what we do best here at Golden Era Motorsport!
