I think Pussy mechanic or Zoggee's will be able to help if they can get the right parts. Its not really a direct swap. Depends on you engine as the coupling will be in contact with the headers upon turning. Therefore you will need to fabricate a coupling. As for the formula for the fabrication I will email you. So please give me your email. With that it will be a direct swap.
2cents
What are the improvement or advantages?
1. E36 racks - easy to find anywhere.
2. Turning radious as TJ wrote is much better.
3. No free play. I hate it when i turn my steering & the car still goes straight? This is the remedy. Very good if you wanna track it.
4. Steering response will be more direct - Which is same as No 3.
& last but not least ITS BECAUSE ALVIN done it, Pussy followed him & did it, Kaki Puchong also did & still is smiling bout it.
Muahaha ha h ah h ah haha h ha ha!!!!!!!!!
Now i'm charging for all the R&D work! I'm open to be bribe! heheheheheh

alvin,
sent u a pm.
i never knew it can be done in Malayaland ....only seen them over the net
by the way, did u fit a heat shield to the coupling?
i think fitting into mine shud be much easier coz its an M40 only.....A LOT & LOT of SPACE!
i asked around and it seems E36 rack is cheaper than E30 aluminum ones!!! good reason to do it...

Yes it can be done in Malaysia cause i have talk with Ian in th UK. However, the measurements in the web is slightly different.
