    I wouldn't be too worried about low right now. It's not only your first E30, but your first car, so enjoy it for what it is. Low will come in time and growing up is a bitch.

      I've gotten that once or twice before too. Strokes my ego. I'm just happy that my girl likes my car. ;)

            So ordered my brake parts from Blunt yesterday. Surprise, they showed up today! Well some of them.

            The rear rotors and pads did. And my random light bulbs to fix my cluster/hvac panel

            Blunttech ftw

              You'll need to either lower your rear subframe quite a bit or take it out to get to the inner rear lines. Just an FYI.

                I believe I might be getting some help on this from John Parker. Not sure yet, hopefully though. I dont really want to this myself, especially since it is a safety issue

                  So just wondering if this is good or bad, or normal. Likely normal.

                  I was expecting more from Brembo... but you tell me. The rear of one of the rotors has this knick in it. And the other is missing the set screw?

                  Lol and I noticed the stamping on each side is different between the two. Ill be comparing these to the Balo's that is for sure

                            Protruding? Explain. It is fairly deep, Id guessa mm or 2.

                            Im new to all this, so sorry if it makes me look like an idiot.

                              Is it protruding outward or is the surface raised to where the pad would hang up on it?
