The pipes made to fit M20 engined cars with e36 racks should fit an M30 engined e30 with e36 rack, as the M30 fitting guides say you can use standard M20 pipes.

I want a set too if they fit!

M20 kits in process

Anybody know if there is much of a difference in the pipes fittings location between an M40 and M42 pump?

Thanks for the kind words Dezzy, they are a nice contrast against your filthy dirty steering rack :D

Dont forget to P clip that pressure pipe :wink:

A couple of zoners have asked for M20 pipes which are now done. Only a couple more sets left up for grabs, any engine catered for

I helped fit these up and they are very well made and fitted spot on with no fettling needed. I will probably get a set myself in the near future, just for the homosexuality. :o

Just need to know the distance from the pump outlet bolt to the rad, orientation of the bolt, and the location of the reservoir, pics would be good also

If you want to be cheap you can remove the rubber and bolt the two parts together
You could also make a custom one with some E36 linkage bits and a lump of alloy as a spacer turned to the right diameter/thickness
Or if you want to be really posh you can use one of these -
