Re: M Exhaust manifold

They will fit, the only problem on a Z3 is the steering column runs at a slightly different angle to the E36. I had this problem when I changed my manifold.

Re: lowering

You will definitely have negative camber after lowering the car, which also helps handling. The negative is that the inside of the tyre will wear. Also dependant on the size of tyres you running.

Re: Simple but effective upgrade

As Robert T says you learn something everyday, I thought all Zeds had rear speakers. I'm pretty sure the wiring will be there, I would cut the existing trim as the standard trim comes with a small 2" speaker, I upgraded mine to a 4" unit which made a nice improvement to the sound.
