Love your car and setup .. just one question .. why are you using the eta inlet manifold instead of the better 2.5 one??

I had a 320i inlet and a 327eta inlet, thats why i chosen the eta one.

For next season I am planning a 2.7 stroker, this engine goes for sale.

Nice driving, I love the rear light setup, you'll have to make a few of those up some time :)

thanks mate,

the lights really make the car look wider now. All you need is a bit of masking tape, red spray for lights and matt black spray. With the matt black spray paint you paint the blinker housing (was before gray - that makes the orange go darker) I made that with the front and back blinkers. Then cover the blinker glass and put a few layers of the red spray for lights on. After its dry, masking tape and draw a thin line around the lights and put the black matt spray on. IMHO description of the pictures on the previous page :playcar

Cool, I might give it a try. I like your black back panel. Have thought about doing something similar in the past too.

first try was red, it looked really great, but the car is also red so it was too much. If it was white, black, ... then awesome, but yeah, so it became black :thumbsup

this winter is going to be very productive, so I'll ask the questions here. I know everything is already written :)

I bought side opening windows for the e21 with all the bits and pieces, only without the window seal that is on the car frame. Where to get one? buy used? I really don't want any leaks because the car is until this day bone dry inside.

any hints?

Use Yugo Koral seals.

I know.. :) But if you find one, you'll geet it cheap.. :)
It worked for me.. :)
Maybe you can soak seals in glycerine to soften them up. That would be even better!
I guess sheeping from Serbia is not so expensive if you want new item.
