Thanks Brent, I am struggling to find struts. I have found some Sachs Z3 OEM shocks but they dont state they are for M Sport suspension, any thoughts?

 

part numbers for 6cyl z3 msport type

https://www.google.com/search?q=31316753262&rlz=1C1GIWA_enNZ599NZ599&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

https://www.google.com/search?q=31316753261&rlz=1C1GIWA_enNZ599NZ599&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

and older part numbers 31311094191 & 31311094192

z3 has much shorter struts and little lower springs 

so yes will fit but will lift the front up quite a bit

Thanks guys or would a e28 be a better plate form to start with? @Gaz @BM WORLD

yea probably 

still not easy , but better rear suspension set up

Rust is probably your biggest thing. There are some crossovers with suspension parts with the likes of the e3/e24 maybe some e28 stuff to. @BM WORLD is probably the man to ask

Factory sizing is 225/45 and 245/40 so yes will cure the rubbing

yes and new shocks and bump stops , most z3 i see have worn out guard liners even when running correct tyre sizes 

but yes 235 wide is a no no on the front 

these all do this 

foam degrads 

get a car upholstery shop to redo them 

my guess the sword 

these will all die 

maybe get it repaired by a electronic tech guy

Thanks for that, would they polish up ok ?

My problem is the other one I have is close to brand new nick

Wheels on that for sale ?

you could try 

these wheels gone 

have this parts car 

i think some early 5L commodores used to had a 5spd ZF 

also i think some vettes may have used one?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ZF_transmissions

sell it and buy a 330i or 335i etc

E30, z3 and e36ti rear subframes are interchangeable. Z3s all had lsd standard

not all z3 had lsd , was a option offered depending on spec

zf 6speed auto swap ?

use a aftermarket trans controller like these guys use

https://www.youtube.com/@ZeroTo60Tube/search?query=turbolamik

but probaby not worth the cost etc 

maybe do it with a 8spd zf

Pretty sure they came off a E39, google says they fit.

its a e38 part number

, e39 have bigger hub bore size than e38 

so unless someone has machined them out to suit a e39

The guy who repaired the puncture also advised me to buy 17 inch rims, though he said it was about stability - anything else and the electronics would detect it and slow the car to 30kmh. He was just a general tyre retailer and fitter, not a BMW specialist, but I don't want to take any chances. Also, I'm not sure whether the mounting holes would be correct on anything other than a salvaged rim or a space saver made for the vehicle?

I've now discovered I can get a space saver kit from offshoe, but the shipping is 5x the price of the part!

@BM WORLD what price to get either a rim or entire wheel to Lower Hutt (5014 post code)? I'm guessing the rim alone is going to be way cheaper 😕 

 

 

we have already talked and i sent you pics of all i had by email , and did not get a reply back from you

thanks 

space saver needs to be 17" min to clear the brakes

and ET18 for a e60 , 3 series type wont work 

i have some single alloys with or without tyres to suit a e60
