  1. Thanks Will, Bushes went on rather easy slight tapping with a hammer and grease and pressed them in fine.

    Wheel specs will be revealed soon need to paint the centres and assemble them up first.. Its nothing to flash, its been done before - but not on a E30 in NZ i hope ^_^


  2. Well im considering getting larger swaybars for my E30, ive currently got 325i front and rear 20/14mm ?

    I want less body roll, a tighter car around corners for my spririted driving and i want to be tracking the car in the future..

    Take note im running 75D Bushes all around.. - Ive been looking at the Ultra Racing stuff thoughts? Any recommendations ? What brands, sizes have you used..? Thanks guys


  3. Big week for me,

    The Front end is all complete and looking sweet CAB all pressed in, S/S Brake lines, EBC Yellow Pads & BC Gold Struts.

    Yesterday i dropped the diff, subframe and trailing arms.

    Today i got around to burning my old subframe bushes out.. Which was fun! - **For future reference anyone trying this, drill/cut the inner metal sleeve out first! then light it up, i soaked it with petrol and a BBQ lighter and it worked a treat! If you try burn the whole thing at once without a gas torch it wont work**

    also pushed the new subframe bushes in, aswell and the diff bush - who needs a press ???

    Test fitted the wheels i orginally bought for the car and they just fit. Heres a pic for the cool kids B)

    To do:

    - Remove/Install Trailing Arm Bushes

    - Remove install Engine/Gbox mounts

    - New diff oil

    - Re-install rear end!


  4. First Day of pulling things apart, whole front end is out. Is it worth replacing after market sway bars while its all out ?

    Was looking at White line 23mm front /16mm rear or Ultra Racing 23mm front / 19mm rear. Does anyone have any other recommendations ?
