Guest Phil Ken Sebben Report post Posted June 12, 2007 I was of the understanding it's a variable ratio rack? It's for an E30, fyi. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike 1 Report post Posted June 13, 2007 (edited) I was of the understanding it's a variable ratio rack? It's for an E30, fyi. depends on the year, 95 was variable while the 96 on was constant. (90% sure its that way around) Seems to be a few internet myths about steering racks, with things regarding lock to lock turns, steering ratios, variable racks etc. I'm not exactly 100% on the subject, each time I read something about bmw racks it adds to the confusion.

hybrid 1039 Report post Posted June 13, 2007 Its a lot easier finding a Z3 rack and chucking that in. just wont quite have the M lock .. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wms 1 Report post Posted July 11, 2007 I thought non-M Z3 rack ie. z3 1.9 was the quickest rack available for E30 swap? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pussytamer 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2007 The Z3 1.9 rack is the quickest of them all, followed by the E36 M3 rack. The Z3 rack bolts straight into the E30 and the E36 need spacers. With both racks you need to change your Power Stering hose fittings . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gus 5 Report post Posted July 11, 2007 wayne, got any review worthy comments as to yours? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pussytamer 0 Report post Posted July 12, 2007 Other than I'm no race car driver, but noticed the differance between the two racks,which the Z3 is far more noticable if you are able to come across one. Peter R, fitted one in his Alpina, and spoke highly of the change over. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
