Dinan in Trouble???

[mkgino]

I have heard that they have been doing some bad things to bmw's recently which is why they changed from www.dinanbmw.com to www.dinancars.com. WTF happened?

[MarkD]

Maybe they are expanding into other car models, such as MINI's. (And who knows what else later) That may be the reason for the change in the URL.

I also noticed that the original name "Dinan Engineering" is now just Dinan.

I read awhile ago that they're superchargers in z3's and m coupe I think we being installed very badly. When BMW dealerships were installing them they would cut away a piece of the frame or something. anyways dinan would not admit that there was a problem and people got very mad obviously. This was posted like last year so don't quote me. i'll try to find a link.

Well I have read that they messed up some cars but it could be a rumor

I heard of some really bad things that they did to the Z8 when they installed new headers.

YA thats what i was thinking of

The Z8 is the only thing I remember they totally messed up. They changed the name because theyre doing Mini and possibly other stuff. I believe they updated the site because its their 25th anniversary also

and look at how they have to cut out part of the front in order to mount the S/C kit for M3 (you can find this picture from the news sectioN)
