[QUOTE="kombat_kanan, post: 502417, member: 17022"] Downside would be that: - You have to modify the steering coupling / spacers. - You lose the originality of an E30 (well they say the greatest honour an E36 could have is to have its parts installed in an E30). - After you do it you can only replace your rack with an E36 rack, unless you re-modify. Advantages would be: - Easier (for the time being) to source for E36 steering rack than an E30. - E36's steering rack much cheaper than any available E30's unless you have a very good friend to sell cheap to you. - I heard that the cost of (parts + modify + labour to fit E36 rack in an E30) is cheaper than (parts + labour to replace original E30 rack in an E30). Not really sure whether this is case to case basis or what and somebody else need to confirm this. As a reference you might wanna check this site: [URL="http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=66247"]http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=66247[/URL] [/QUOTE]
