Just remembered, for the smoked lights I found this guy on ebay, looks like a good deal

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BMW-e30-black-hea ... dZViewItem

would you recommend the Hella factory made ones? I presume I could get these xenon converted just as easily as any other lights? How do yours differ from other Bosch ones?

cheers again si

thats the ones! execpt mine came as complete units i just had to put them together.

depends Will, i bought mine long before the tight wads on here even thought about making them!

Depends whether u are good at making stuff, or would rather save the hassle and buy them done?!

The magnex is now Karans hands i'm afraid.

The new manifold is built more for a 2.7 engine like i am building, magnex one is still good but this has bigger and longer primary pipes etc. Better for a higher performance 2.7

cool, my lump is still an untuned 2.5 so I think my funds need to go lots of other places at the mo, a 6 branch probably wouldnt be the best use of 4/500 quid right now. i want to get it dyno'd and try and get as near to 170bhp before i start modding too much, i guess the better the base you start from, the better the gains are going to be from each individual mod.

I would love to make my own lights but Im crap and dont have the time. I think for Ԛ£140 I might just go with those Hellas and then think about angel/xenons later on.

Awesome, thanks for the advice, I love all this shit.....

Great looking car Simon. Looks great with the Alpinas too.


I posted a thread yesterday I don't know if you read it. But are the wheels a shade darker compared to the original BBS. Matt or shiny finish??

Thanks

This kind of thing makes me miss my E30 terribly :(

My sport is the only car I think I have ever owned and missed. Yours was an inspiration si!
