IF you jump around between e30 and newer cars, the difference how much brake power you need to apply is quite big. Which is quite annoying and because of the brake feel the e30 feels like outdated car. Which it is :D So I at least would much rather get the same new car feel to the e30 brakes also.
And inspired by this thread, I also got myself e90 booster. 50€ from ebay and in like new condition. Going to install that to my car next winter when the driving season ends here.
But well. Some people even like the boosterless setups and I personally think that those are the most horrible thing to have...
And do you think this will work in RHD?
ThanksComment

So there are plenty of cars to choose the booster from. All same.
The master in these is 25.4/22.2 mm. Only the 316-318 came with different master which is 23.81/22.2 mm. Don't know which master works better. The smaller one may be better match to e30 stock brakes because of the size relation between front and back circuits is closer to e30 original. But I will use e38 4-pot brembos which came with 25.4 master also.Comment

Don't know about RHD. But I think mine was from 320D. The same booster and master is used in high variety of cars: https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/par...&q=34336785664

Great info guys!
My M52 is running a single stage Audi brake booster, but this may be a good upgrade (my pedal is pretty hard).
