Dude, eta engines are terrible. If they weren't terrible, people would keep them because of their not-terribleness. Instead however, people take them out, throw them away, and never speak of them again. Unless of course you mate the eta bottom end to the i/is top end or keep them until they can swap it out for some sort of newer engine and then throw the eta away and never speak of it again. Other wise, eta engines are terrible.
You do realize the guy you are talking to is the administrator of the site right? He knows these things as does everyone else.

Vlad, you are handling this quite unprofessionally.

It shouldn't matter who I am. Everyone knows eta engines are slow, but I really couldn't care less. My engine is chipped, and has a few good mods that net more than enough power to have fun with. If someone wants to give me the money for an M30 or an S50, I'll gladly swap. But for now, I work with what I've got, and I'm plenty happy with it. But for some people, that's not enough.
I guess rattle-canning your car flat black and painting your wheels grabber green is a little more subtle than spray painting "LOOK AT ME" across your hood, but not by much. But, the people looking at it shouldn't worry about it anyway, considering they would be so far behind.
I have my own opinion just like every single other weird kid on this site. Opinion makes this forum go 'round and mine is that eta engines suck. Nothing more, nothing less. I could care less who has one or who loves there's but not many people have it in their car by choice.
I happen to like the green wheels, but I guess you could say that it is the "in" thing as of right now cuz it's m4d TyT3 JDM y0!!!1!1!!!1111!! And as for the pix, less E36, more E30.

BTW, I just got done making my own F&F moviez yo!!!
OMG, lyke we had teh mad driftz and I want so fastoorzzz!!
All joking aside, I would hope that the collective mind of R3v could deduce that someone who has a 5 lug, coilovered, OBDI S52 has more common sense than to quote and mimic F&F all day.
But I might be asking too much. haha
Janderson, nothing wrong with an ETA, my first E30 had one, and it was a blast in parking lots. Save that green and one day your E30 will be something everyone will oodle over.

ITT (I'm assuming) grown men whining about some spray paint on some wheels.
If they guy went and sripped the green off and painted them silver you'd probably give him shit for doing what everyone tells him to do. I like 'em.
Janderson wrote that he likes his ETA and that's why he still rocks it. Great, that`s what this is really all about. Well it looks like OP likes his green wheels just like you enjoy your car.
Personally I kinda dig the look. I couldn`t do it to my car, but if OP likes it, which he obviously does, then cool.
I hate modded emtree, I hate modded cawrz, I hate jdm, I hate swag, I hate stanceyolokids, I hate bags (on cars), I hate stuff that is slowz, I hate tires.
