Hi,

Just bought this off a breaker and want to make sure I have what I ordered and payed £150.00 plus vat for 8O

Code on it reads 028-0280-007-221

then below

1 094 038

It seems to turn 2.75 turns lock to lock...I thought it was less than that..?

Any advice?

z3 1.9 racks are 2.75 - 2.8ish turns lock to lock, so yours sounds about right.

Also that is the correct number, same as mine.

Cheers for that - just wanted to make sure after shelling out £150.00

On your sig you have: z3 rack fitted + solid guibo + m3 bushes = pure awesomeness

I'll have Z3 rack + solid gumbo (both to be fitted soon) and it's poly bushed all round so I hope I'll have the same handing and ability/chance to catch the tail .. :D
