Silver Fox 43 Report post Posted December 5, 2009 Ok, so it's time for the heart transplant, out with the old and in with the new, well by next weekend I hope anyway. Couple of pics, new front arms, and a steering rack. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BM WORLD 1285 Report post Posted December 5, 2009 looks good , pitty you cant mount the rack closer to the drivers side or get a rack with a wider mounting set up so the input shaft is closer to the chasis rail. good work though . where do i put my order in Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Silver Fox 43 Report post Posted December 6, 2009 Got a mate who's going to get the bottom steering knuckle changed. The Telstar has a different spline from the BMW, so have to get the bottom half of the Telstar matched to the top half of the BMW, luckily the universal is the same size on both, so shouldn't be too hard.

Silver Fox 43 Report post Posted December 16, 2009 Don't know for sure, but it's coming off and the holes will be blanked off. Guessing Oxy sensor or something? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CamB 48 Report post Posted December 16, 2009 Possibly some sort of air injection - you get around emissions problems by injecting fresh air into the exhaust. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
