Steering rack

[jimbob88]

Bit of a noob question im afraid but alas im going to ask it anyway

I know custom pipes are available from danthe or you can bend yours to fit but i presume this is for the m52 lump and e30 rack

Im using the e36 rack that came with the m52 so can i just use the stadard pipes??

I havent tried them yet as i stripped them off because there fooked

e36 pipes or m20 pipes? my e36 pipes fitted, but not well. high pressure line took 2-3 small bends over the knee and fitted ok. the return line took a couple but still fitted badly......cable ties to the rescue on that one.

Danthe does E30 with E36 rack and M52 friendly pipes also. Save yourself the ballache and order from him mate

[jimbob88]

So if you use the m52 engine and the e36 rack that came with it you still have to modify or buy pipes?

its all to do with manifold clearance pal. Danthe made me some pipes up to use z3 rack on my m20 with BTB manifold

yes, the e36 pipes need bending to fit.
