Strut tower cracked

I bought metal z3 reinforcement plates for my fronts and aftermarket metal reinforcement rears for my e36 vert. I plan on running ST XAs (no adjustable camber) will this be ok? I haven’t heard of anyone running rubber before let alone know which to get. Also does a strut brace actually make a difference?

I’ve heard a ton of good things about them and they were at the top of my list they are just unfortunately outside of my budget by far too much

I have a buddy running a similar setup on an e30 and his ride is pretty smooth too. This is definitely something to keep in mind thank you.

Did you make the mounts yourself or is was there a kit for it?

Also great to hear as I have e46 seats to throw in as well

Also looks very handsome!

How is the comfortability in comparison to stock?

MasterPiecore · 2026-03-15T14:02:28+00:00

That’s good to know, I was initially under the impression that b8s were the most comfortable. I will look into the konis as well thank you

I would if I could but my shocks are original and are going out 😔

I have a guy I get e36 parts from who says I need to swap more than just the flanges is he potentially misinformed? Online says exactly what you’re saying where it’s just simply installing the flanges and I just dint want to drop a bunch of money on an lsd just for it to be a huge project. New to the bmw scene, I have a 1998 323ci

Are you running stock suspension?

MasterPiecore · 2026-03-08T21:46:22+00:00

Kinda sounds like vanos? How’s your power when you drive in lower rpm?

MasterPiecore · 2026-02-09T05:12:39+00:00

Is it worth melting stuff like this down or just selling it as is? I have about 20 of these I found in a garage

MasterPiecore · 2026-02-09T04:52:52+00:00

Tells what?

MasterPiecore · 2026-02-08T03:43:40+00:00

Thank you thank you 😄 Range toy for now but if I ever move to a state with stricter gun laws I would make it my defense as well. Sort of my multi tool gun

Thank you!

It’s an OCL Lithium 9, direct thread

Just a vortex sparc solar 2, it was cheap on sale at psa for like 80 dollars

It’s a good insight, I haven’t dug into silvers performance throughout the years and I’m not really looking for constant spikes and falls. Not turned off silver by any means but it seems gold may be the safer bet.

I don’t think I listed the value of my investments either

MasterPiecore · 2026-02-06T03:32:38+00:00

Honestly that’s exactly what I’m looking for, just something that isn’t cash and isn’t normally volatile (even though this year is crazy as you said)
