nice to see another e36 m42 on here welcome!
my advice would be to change the 1 piece headlights they just dont look right and dont fit right and maybe lose the chrome while your at it not only dosent not look good on e36s in general but it dosent flow well with your white and black theme.
Also look into having the bumpers and sideskirts and mirrors color matched looks cleaner unless you want it to look like that (white and black theme).
please dont be insulted about the headlights for i too once ran chrome ones so just giving advice from experience. overall impressive for $800!!!!
oh and paint your needles red or buy m3 ones so that they match the pod gauges and they will be easier to see!

Swaps, Turbos, Buildups / new guy who wants to turbo his m42!

ok ive been looking on ebay like you said and theres a lot of turbo kits, intercoolers, piping etc. but there all for the m50-52/s50-52. now i know a lot of guys on here when going turbo use a 6-cylinder manifold and just cut the last two plenums off. so what im asking is could i use the same tubing and what not as the six cylinders but with a modified manifold?
