Been searching on here and the net trying to find a quick rack solution for "The Lady" (my e30 325 without PAS, track car).

The 3 options i have seen are the e36 m3 rack, z3 1.9 rack and a LHD talbot sunbeam rack. I've read the great article on the m3 rack, but just wondered if the Z3 is a easy to do, and gives a quicker rack.

To use the E36 or Z3 racks you will need to fit PAS to your E30.

I think theres a manual quick rack available and its quicker than the E36 options. I cant remember what it is though.
It was discussed on here a while back, so a search should find it. :thumb:

I think the E36 and Z3 racks are pretty much the same because the Z3 is based on the E36 end and an E30 rear end.
