Had a look on CTRO for you but couldn't find a UK supplier. However read this thread by another member about importing so I've pasted below. Take it you were on about air induction??

And lastly ...



Be aware you may have to pay customs . Not really expensive but you could do without the extra expense ( around £20 ) . Try asking Hoya to post it as a gift ( if that ever works )

You can also get them through new era parts. Not exactly cheap though.

Only if I was doing the Top Gear challenge across the channel.
The Gruppe M air intake is higher than standard cars, so you are barking up the wrong tree with that argument.

Thinking of AEM CAI maybe?

wasnt trying to argue their purpose, was just asking, as you can see from the pics linked below, water goes up the bonnet & into the scoop in heavy rain i'd of thought?

Theres a drain hole in the bottom of the Gruppe M......

I did 20,000 + miles in mine in all weather...never had a problem, water simply drains out.

[Mr_Max]

sounds good, thanks for the advice

I know this thread is very old but I thought I'd post the results of my recent research should anyone be looking for GruppeM still, as this appeared in my search.

It doesn't look like GruppeM Europe is going any more, but on further research and after having visited the UK dealers on GruppeM Japan's website I've found a UK specialist supplying them - http://hollza.com

I'm looking to buy one for my Z4 3.0si shortly. My mate had one ages ago on his E36 M3 and it sounded awesome. Will post up photos and hopefully a video once I've got it.

Hope this helps.
