        Whoa!... Other than the taillights, it looks awesome!... I think a candy red type taillight would be better fitting

          Did you have any intake manifold clearance issues or have to modify anything? I've read elsewhere that the e36 intake won't work on left hand drive e30's.

          How are you triggering the the dual stage intake?

          Thanks

            Looks like he's running the full E36 harness and maybe even ECU. At that point its probably functioning as it should...

                Thanks dude!

                I recently upgraded my brakes!
                In the back i replaced all parts with new but stock
                For the front i bought a set of 4pot Brembo calipers from Renault Megane RS 225 and Tarox F2000 323x28 rotors from Seat Leon Cupra R with Ferodo DS2500 Pads..
                The result is here, and now the brake quality is waaaay better,even without ABS system!!

                      Nice! What about the brake rotors themselves?
