Hey guys,

Let's update this.

I'm very happy, and would like to share with you. Received last thrusday my new wheels. And finally on friday, after more than 6 months, installed my new Wilwood BBK.

Just one thing to say: Fantastic

About bias, until now i didn't think it is necessary to upgrade my rear calipers ( i'm using some better pads on rear).

Maybe on 28th june i'll meet the track, and this way can post better impressions

looks like they don't have any US distributors according to their site, I found the one for the M42 engines too and now I want one

I know someone with an intake very similar to the one on the site for his EG Civic, I'll see if it's a Simota and if it is I'll ask where he got it

EDIT: it's not a Simota, too bad

EDIT: EDIT: aha! look what I found

http://simotausaracing.com/
they don't list it on their site but they can get it

Default Refurbished Steering Wheel mounted

In my opininon the sport steering wheel for the e36 is a bit too thin. E.g. the sport steering wheel in the e46, e90/91 and e60/61 is much more chunky. Recently I replaced my old e36 sport steering wheel with a refurbished on, which also showed to be just that tiny bit little more chunky then the original one.



The workmanship on the refurbished steering wheel is exceptionally good!
