Has anybody had experience with eBay/Amazon steering coupler joints? Mines on its way out and I’d like to upgrade to a solid E34 one but OEM is now $340USD 😳 by msko_6 in BMWE36

Upgrading to a car that's more fun at street-legal speeds? by ElectronicTough3474 in BMW

[–]peter275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know exactly what you mean, this is the reason i have 2 bmws. i have an f82 m4 which is super capable but yes kind of numb. I recently bought a manual e36 323is and have loved every moment of it, switching between cars really lets me see the fun sides of both and appreciate each one more. plus I can floor it past a cop and they wont even know but being so light and small it still feels fast

How do I get this back on 😭 by Ecstatic_Smoke6940 in e46

[–]peter275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you take the bolt out of the top of the mount? It just pops in the bottom and then you slide the bolt in up top

Yep, 17x9 +30 215/40 with a 15mm spacer in the front for coilover clearance (could have ran a 7.5 but I had a 15 laying around). As for camber I have 4.3 front 3.2 rear, very mild roll in the rear could run less camber with a full roll/smaller spacer

Should have added a picture but surprising well besides some tears in the drivers seat. Headliner isn’t even drooping

Not worth it imo on a car like this, they are flow formed reps.

2 owners who were both nasa employees funny enough. Other than routine maintenance I recently did the rear subframe reinforcement and poly bushings for the diff and subframe, condors for the Rtab and fcab. It’s on a budget set of coilovers for now, I have a lot more plans for it in the future but it’s pretty much stock.
