WTB e30 wheel spacers

I'm looking for wheel spacers for my E30 4 x 100 setup. I'm sampling different wheel and tire combinations and looking for various spacers to test. I don't want to spend a ton of money and I'm sure there are plenty out there just laying around collecting dust. Prefer to get sets of 4, or at least pa...

Digital Tach for E36

I'm looking to install a digital tach into my race car which has an E36 S52 engine. Does anyone have a recommendation for this type of tachometer? Any suggestions on what to look out for on wiring these tachs in a BMW?

Thanks for any information.

They are more expensive than Five Star for sure, I don't have the final invoice. There are many options on thickness and finishes, so depends on what you want, around $1,100 for the windshield, rear and quarters.

Thanks Bob, if you can PM me some pics it would be great. Five Star would not guarantee the fit for my '84, but I'm sure they would have been fine. I opted to go with a company called Shields, good product and extremely helpful. They have a hard coat outside and anti fog inside. I also ordered rear ...

WTB E30 steering knuckle

I'm looking for an E30 steering knuckle that I can modify for doing an E36 steering rack conversion. I'm using the AKG bushing kit so please refer to their website under instructions for a picture of the unit. Turns out since my car is an '84, it had an old style design and doesn't work for this swa...

I would suggest lighten up on the "death grip" approach and start to drive with your fingers. If you are holding onto the wheel to tight then you loose a lot of feed back. You may want to look into a better system to keep you planted in the seat. None of this would have helped in this situation. Bot...
