I've been an avid follower of E30 Zone for years and try to DIY as much as possible, but the quick steering rack conversion was beyond me. I finally got round to taking my E30 to Dan Harborow / BM Conversions UK Ltd. I can't praise Dan highly enough, the communication throughout the job was top notch, sending photos of what he was up to. Dan also identified other issues in need of TLC and ended up doing a lot more work than first planned.

My E30 has never been better, I ended up going for the E46 CS rack, I supplied the rack and Dan did the rest. This has transformed the car, but it's Dan's work on the rear subframe bushes and beam that really has put the cherry on top of a fantastic job. The steering feel is so much better - I have had my E30 since 2012 and thought I understood what people were talking about in terms of how lovely they are to drive, but with the beam supported I can appreciate just how special these cars are.

A huge thank you to Dan from me. His workmanship is excellent as the photos show, he knows his stuff and provided expert service with a real passion for keeping E30s going 👏

If you're thinking of going for the rack swap, I recommend doing it and choosing Dan to do the work.

Dan joined the Team recently and I am soooooooooo glad that he did because his hands on work (and Rich`s too) is brilliant for the forum .
If they were crap and did not care about what they did word would get around fast so it`s only fitting to shout about peoples abilities too.

Only the E46 cab left now.
