Alright guys, had a little bit of a dilemma with my steering guibo being extremely deteriorated. so i took the linkage off and checked the size between my mates spare 340 guibo and it fits with a slight modification. you just need to drill the center out by about 12mm. it offers some very good properties over the e30 guibo as it has a metal plate running to each of the bolt holes.
test drove it earlier and it feels fantastic, extremely responsive
