Yes, launch control certainly is absolutely useless...I'm going to figure the biggest drag radials that will fit and get them on by spring.

Alright I've entered full on sleeper mode. I added the 3.5" cutout and a full 3" exhaust with a resonator/bullet muffler and a walker sound fx 18160. Thing is so quiet, driving down the road can't hear the engine at all. In fact. this made me worried because now I can hear all these e30 noises I haven't heard in a long time. Subtle transmission sounds, rattles, its crazy. The car has polyurethane mounts everywhere. Sorry I forgot to take a picture of the rear section when I had it out.

Well that is awesome. A buddy of mine has had them on his procharged S197 mustang and it's quite possibly the greatest thing ever. Everyone should have cutouts.

I've started collecting parts to convert the rear of my car to 5 lug. Z4 hubs, calipers, and rotors with a mounting bracket from SRS. I intend to keep my e38 style 5's and put a 245/50 DR back there. Anyway, listen to the sound of this S369 and Tial 50mm...interior (exhaust) is so quiet all you hear is whining from the drivetrain.

I'm converting the rear to 5 lug using z4 hubs, this adds minimal width (like 2mm per side) unlike the z3 and ti swap. This will allow me to remove the 20mm spacer/adapters needed to run the e38 style 5's and add a much larger tire. Going from a 205/45-16 to a 245/45-16. Anyway, I need more traction...so it starts. An added bonus is the e46 325i brakes a quite a bit larger. I do have to say, the B90 paid for itself again...worth the investment 10 or so years later.
Edit* forgot to add, the e46 rotors are also vented...check it out.

What rear caliper adapters did you use? Looks like it all fit together perfectly!
These are rebuilt e46 325i calipers. They fit with adapting brackets from SRS concepts. Completely bolt on, even the brake line. I will post some pictures/measurements of the factory e30 and e46 caliper side by side. The piston is much larger on the e46 unit.

Wasn't sure if the extra $150 was worthwhile when I just drive on the streets? What have you had success with? I wan't impressed with the Hawk HPS.
