Phatputer 3 Report post Posted August 20, 2010 Hey guys, Been looking around various areas, want to get various components sorted on the 2 door 1987 318i prior to engine swap at the end of the year Been looking around a bit, would prefer to support the guys on here first though. Wanting to replace rear shock top mounts, Should I be looking at these? http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=311293870 Or these? http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=311593296 Rear Subframe bushes - urethane http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=311593289 Front bushes have already been replaced with urethane bushes Will be dropping the rear subframe out of the car, what should I be looking at doing while this is out, other than maybe a clean up and quick respray The front and rear sway bars from the 1987 325i that I will be swapping everything from into this are coming over, should I just be replacing the bushes and connectors on these? or just replacing them? Thanks in advance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good point, I was intending to do these as well, just slipped my mind What are AKG like to deal with? Delivery Times? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeddy 0 Report post Posted August 21, 2010 Also my AKG engine and gearbox mounts are shipped as of this morning, will be here in a week. I ordered this set in 75D urethane: http://www.akgmotorsport.com/catalog/view....es/MTS325lg.jpg $185 NZ shipped to my door. They have fantastically fast and efficient service, even refunded the extra $ I put in for that flat rate for Australasia shipping. Definitely recommend them, Ashkan said this mount set are awesome so should be good times ahead AKG 75D urethane engine and gearbox mounts in....best money I have spent on this car so far. The difference is incredible, it even feels like it handles better, even sounds better Fantastic products. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
