    Thats just your opinion and i think it looks great, Ive gotten numerous compliments wherever I go.


    true I could spend $1200 on the DTM CF box but I dont have that kind of money to spend on bling when my current setup functions just fine and besides its not a show car or anything, its a track car so I dont care how it looks.

              " go get sideways?" what is this some newbie drifting forum?

              as I mentioned in my first post, excuse the darkness of the clip, I live in an apt and the underground lot is rather dark and besides its more of an AUDIO clip so lets keep the childish comments to yourself.

              oh and thanks to the few guys who had nice things to say :)

                  sheesh, either i am missing something, or we are all being a little too hostile to Ara here. Now i'm no "top dog" on R3V, just sayin how i see it.

                  yeah, the vid wasn't particularly entertaining, it was just a long walkaround of an idling M3 with an exhaust problem.

                  yeah, the intake is a little ghetto, especially with the duct tape, and especially on an E30 M3,

                  but really, people, i don't know about you, but i don't know this guy at all, why would you say mean comments right off the bat to him that i know most of you would not tell some stranger in person?

                  All i'm sayin is that there is a more positive and constructive way to tell Ara our opinions about his car and video.

                    As for my opinion, i grimace to see ribbed ducting pipe and duct tape on an E30 M3.

                      ^^^ thanks man, much respect.

                      that flex hose is $100 per 10 feet, its aircraft grade and fire resistant. Its not some ghetto fab hose you get at home depot or anything like that......and as for the duct tape, I placed it there to prevent rubbing of the hose and cause a hole......really wished bmw put the abs in a different location =/

                      Its not an exhaust " problem" its just a clip of open headers.

                      Unlike most E30 M3 owners I dont trip out about minor things in terms of looks or keeping in prestine condition, heck 9/10 E30 M3 guys will never see a track day but they have one of the best tools for the job.

                        then again, i have no huge problem with what you do with your M3. But, you should get some sweet outside vids of a driveby or something.

                          OMG 10 bucks a foot r u a baller? No oneder u can afford a ///////m3.

                          Christ, the lumber my desk is made from probably cost more than that... and it's a pretty shitty desk.

                          Your custom intake is probably causing more harm to your car by creating flow restrictions than the good it's doing by dropping your IATs by 3.14159265 degrees

                            Why not use a black ty-wrap? Sorry, I stop watching after a minute. I know you said "quick video" but if I'm going to make a video of my M3 I'm going to put effort into it.

                              Yeah that's the most haggarad M3 I've seen in a while. Not cool at all. I could kind of understand if it were soley a track rat, but it's still looks like garbage.
