Our fantastic weekend in pictures with Hooked on Driving at NJMP Lightning, Sept 20-21, 2025.

We got to shake down a new car to us, a S65 powered E46 M3, equipped with all the goodies.  2900# Carbon widebody, Drenth sequential, KMP pneumatic shifting system, fresh Hoosier R7s (295/335) and a fuel cell full of 100 octane!

Two of our former AER/WRL drivers flew in for the boys weekend to enjoy the festivities.  I think they were happy with the casual, unrestricted, potential of the new #42 car.  Too much aero?  Nah.  Too much HP?  Psst.  Too much grip?  Nope.  Not enough seat time?  Absolutely!

Not to discount the #41 car, it provided a great companion and comparison to the new #42.  Beauty and the beast. 

Thanks to Hooked on Driving for another great event.  These guys are definitely the place to turn some laps, improve some driving skill and just have a very fun atmosphere.

More media to come.

We saved our customer $500 on his 2006-08 Z4M!  Swipe ➡️

Even though the Z4M is equipped with the legendary S54 engine found in the E46 M3, there are some unique things about it, including some of the cooling components.  One such item is the water pump!

On E46 M3s (coupes and convertibles), the water pump has a coolant pipe connector that plugs into the side of the casting.  That is why there is a machined area on the side.  Of course, the Z4M is different enough that this portion of the pump is NOT machined…and because of this, there is not an aftermarket alternative for the part.  The only option is from BMW and it is over $700!

When we discovered this subtle difference, we machined an interface-fit plug and pressed it into place.  Presto!  A water pump now compatible with the Z4M!

Stay tuned as we develop more items for this low production, quirky vehicle! by @rogueengineering

Just another intake, or perhaps not.

Although we like the cool-factor of a CSL style airbox, the custom software and running without a MAF does not appeal to everyone.  How about an intake that provides hp gains, has some induction sound, is compatible with the factory ECU and installs in less than 30 minutes?

We decided to keep specific details like the OEM MAF dimensions, integrate a MAF screen, increase the surface area of the intake size, while integrating smoother airflow.

The new E46 accelerator pedal has arrived!

Like its predecessor, the E46 accelerator pedal is made from plastic.  Over the years, it can break from age.

Rogue Engineering has developed a robust solution using a bombproof solution!What makes it different is that it slots into either the manual or SMG drive-by-wire modules identically.  This means removing the factory pedal from the module assembly and installing the new replacement.  The rear of the pedal uses a Delrin socket to attach to the factory setup in an OEM fashion.

Machined from 6061-T6 and 7075-T6 aluminum, it also features a titanium pivot pin.

Available on our website…just search “gas pedal” in the search window. by @rogueengineering

Build your own big brake kit for your E46 M3!

The rotor is from an E9X M3 (360mm x 30).

The 4-piston, Brembo-made caliper is from an Alfa Romeo Stelvio (brake pads as well). Minor modifications required to clearance for rotor.

We make a custom 7075 caliper bracket and custom brake lines.

Total cost for everything about $800 (less, less than $1000).

Sometimes you pick a car…sometimes the car picks you.

We never had a green car before, but something about an E46 M3 in Oxford Green is special.  Not just because there were only 439 produced worldwide, but perhaps it was an ugly duckling in 2001 in the time of Eddie Bauer Edition Ford Explorers.  We had originally worked on this car when the previous owner from CT brought it to us.  Typical Rogue Engineering kind of stuff…rod bearings and subframe reinforcement.  Then it disappeared with its owner like the many other E46 M3s that pass through our humble hallways.  Then it appeared in a Facebook ad, looking for a new home.

I had contacted the owner asking about the car…seemingly recognizing the name and where it was from, but I couldn’t quite remember.  One of the reasons it did not look familiar was that the interior color had been changed to Cinnamon, clearly a better color than the original grey.  He had also changed the corner, side and rear lights to amber. Other than that, it had a few more miles, a few new bumps and bruises, but was still solid.  After we agreed on a deal (and the owner delivered the car to Rogue), it was time to see where the vehicular journey was going.

Needless to say, many changes to the car was only possible from the many partners we do business with on a regular basis.  The confidence we have in these companies makes it easy to recommend to our customers.  For this we thank them.

We hope the new owner enjoys OXFD as much as we did.  We will miss her, but will not forget her.

How many of you have snapped off the factory gas pedal while driving?  Or worse yet, had the top of the pedal fold under itself, pinning it to the floor?

E36 owners!  We didn’t forget about you!

No more running to Home Depot for a cabinet hinge and screwing it to the floor, as we have come up with the ultimate solution! Fully CNC’d and, over designed and overbuilt, aluminum  masterpiece has features the OEM version doesn’t have. 

The pedal has an adjustable pedal position to meet your preferences.  The included titanium pedal stop also helps with this decision.

Delrin bushings ensure smooth movement for many years to come.  Accurate geometry emulation means that the pedal position feels like stock.  A precision rod end at the top says no more unwanted flexing.
