*gets on CZcams*
*sees video*
*TAPS AS FAST AS POSSIBLE BECAUSE I'VE BEEN WAITING*
Da Mookster58 thanks! Hope you enjoy 👍
Nice work buddy, can't wait to get under mine again this weekend
Pickle fork and a BFH is the best tool combo!
Dallin Jensen hell yeah the BFH is one of my favorite tools!
Great vid, I would love an E30
Love your channel bro. Learning so much. Makes me want to work on my own car.
I love your videos they are really helpful and make me wanna work on my e30 more.maybe do some cosmetic mods like a new front lip or maybe a mtech2 body kit??? Then it would really transform the car. Keep up the cool vids
That z3 rack is gunna be super duper
Goodluck
I wanna see some boost on the e30 !!!!!
Cool upgrades and good parts! I think you should consider an X-Brace (if it is not already the case) , regarding the tires and the agressive driving you foreseen ;)
If you wouldn’t fit spacers, but proper alloys, what would be the offset so it would clear the sway bar and shock by the looks of it. Great video, looking forward to doing this myself
really nice mods man i ll do the same on my track car
That was a lot of help thanks
Don’t really like the idea of the tire hitting sway bar at under full rotation. Say you are in autocross and turn full lock and hit the sway bar real hard you can probably damage it and/or cause temperature lock up of the wheel
Cool, dude!!
Did you leave the plastic boot protector on the control arm when you installed it?...
Haha yeah you caught that lol 😂 yeah I removed it don’t know why the hell I didn’t take it off at first.
Great video--well shot and well explained. It makes me cringe, though, to see you using the palm of your hand as a hammer on suspension parts. After a lot of years doing the same thing, my hands are now pretty arthritic. Use a soft hammer, Blake!
how did you get the steering rack aligned with the steering wheel ? is it pretty easy ?
What year model can I get the z3 rack or is it best to get the last mode which is 2002 ?
A new video 😃😃😃😃
Are all the z3 steering racks the same throughout all its models?
All z3-non M racks are the same. The z3-m racks are the same as the E36 M3.
Hmmm, sweet...good looking out with the info.
Welcome To The Madness no problem!I have a z3 rack in my e36 M3, it completely transformed the car. Probably the best mod on the car. You absolutely won't regret it.
Are you going to post a vid of your driving impressions? Curious to see how the difference feels.
Jason Boyce yeah AutoX video will be coming.
Which front sway bar do you have that is rubbing? Did MRT provide any caution about that w/ their bump-steer correction piece? You are basically doing eveything that i plan on doing to my 87 sedan. I might use a e46 rack de-powered rack though, and had been looking at the SLR kit instead... Thanks for the details, especially grindding smoothing the knuckle shaft binding points. Keep it up!
Sean S basically with any type of angle kit you’re going to run into rubbing issues. I will either make some rack limiters or get wheel spacers and possibly longer lower control arms.
Cool, thanks man. Limiters/stops are good to me, maybe small width wheel spacers. You have the stock sway bar mounting points or the M3 ones on your coilover setup?
"Hi, I'm Blakes Garage, and I make no mention of how much of a pain in the dick it is to get the 22mm nut that attaches the control arm to the subframe off on the passenger side."
First time I did this, I couldn't get it to budge. Ended up supporting the engine and dropping the whole subframe.
Haystack Malone lol the magic of editing. But also in the power steering rack was out of the car it made it much simpler to get to.
hello please could you make a list of all the things you have changed on the e30. thanks from the U.K
agentriley2000 good idea 👍 when I get some time I will make a list for sure.
Where do you buy them thks
Please tell me you didn't leave on the plastic shipping cover for the inner balljoint boot...? Right?
Edit: Yes still clearly visible. Would be a wise move to take the control arms back off and remove the plastic covers! Take care!
Haha someone finally noticed. Yeah I took that off after the fact lol
Ha! It happens! Have a handful of e30's myself... sometimes its hard to fight the excitement of new parts! Keep it up!
Thanks for making this video. I'm about to do the z3 rack swap, so this is really helpful. Some of the r3v write ups mention swapping the Power Steering reservoir and low pressure line. It doesn't look like you did that. Is it not necessary? will the stock low pressure lines reach the z3 rack? Thanks!
Jp Policastro I made it work by just slightly bending the line or maybe I flip floppes it I forget but I think I cover that in the video.
I cover it around 7:15 of the video
I see that now! Thanks. I thought you were talking about the high pressure in the video. I see now that you mentioned both. Thanks again!
Did this swap a couple of weeks ago and it turned out great. The lines were a pain. I might swap them eventually. But, I wanted to thank you for your video. It was a huge help. Keep it up!
I’ve been searching for the chromoly outer tie rods that you have. Can’t find them anywhere. Did MRT give these to you as one-offs/prototypes?
Yeah there custom! Contact him on IG and he can make you some. Only Necessary if your running the older kit with 15’s
What happend to your drain plug bro?
Мужик она на автомате
What year z3 steering rack is this?
Your videos is da shit..
upgrade your brake lines
Daniel Alvarez I actually have them. Did the rears when I did the rear Subframe brakes will be updated soon.
Blake's Garage Nice!👍🏼
