What elements of roman temples was inherited from Etruscan predecessors rather than Greek ones?
The Etruscans developed the Tuscan architectural order. It was mentioned in the architecture textbook by Vitruvius. He did not include it in the canonical orders and mentioned it only in passing in his discussion of the Etruscan temple. Early Romans might have used it for archaic temples. However, later they ignored it because, although it was sturdy, it was unadorned and looked rough.
The 16th century architect Sebastiano Serlio said that the Tuscan Order was suitable for large scale buildings, warehouses, fortifications, prisons, seaports and barns.

How were the Romans influenced by Etruscan engineering?
It is not really known because Etruscan influence occurred very early in Roman history and there are very little archaeological remains from that period. Very little has survived due to both the early age and because ancient Rome was continuously being redeveloped in her 1,200 years of history. It is thought that the Etrucans developed the barrel arch, the simplest type of arch. The Romans then developed the vaulted arch which is more complex. It is likely that some of the archaic (early) Roman temples might have been built in the Tuscan (Etruscan) architectural order. However, if so, they did not survive and this order was soon abandoned in favour of the Greek architectural orders because it was seen as too simple and rustic. The theory that the Etruscans conquered Rome in the 6th century BC, were responsible for Rome's earliest urbanisation and built the Cloaca Maxima (a sewer) and the large temple of Jupiter Otpimus Maximus on the Capitoline hill is just that, a theory. Its evidence base if flimsy and it is based on unproven assumptions. It has been challenged. Recent archaeological evidence in Latium (land of the Latins) suggests a different picture.

Why are temples importnat to Buddhas?
I'm not exactly sure that temples are important to Buddhas. When a bodhisatta attains enlightenment and becomes a Buddha, there are no Buddhist temples anywhere on the earth at that point. The Pali word for temple is vihara, which means living space. Viharas are buildings where monks can live. So a vihara or temple is important to a Buddha because it provides a space where his monks can live and be protected from the elements.
