hmm
okay this is a good point one thing i didn't take into consideration...
Any one know if there are beefier tie rods? Kind of like all the ones that are available for 240's?

wheel bearings?

Next time you get an alignment, get a bit more caster in it. That might help the feel a bit.

If your tie rods are fucked the bushings on them will be loose as hell and give you this exact feeling.

You should get an alignment after you replace those anyway.

no joke her e30 feels away better then mine and everything is original..

That is the last thing that I need to replace but I don't see how that will help make it feel more responsive.
I know doing a z3 rack will help but steering just feels so loose :sad:

I can't figure out why me steering still feels sloppy and loose. Everything is new, bushings, steering knuckle, treehouse cabs, new control arms, ie sways.
But it still kind of feels like it's loose.. I can't figure out why.

[bimmer_E30]

how come i never saw this thread? matt pm me!

[maniacmatt]

changed the ect sensor and it did nothing to my idle. fuck this.

I told you check your throttle switch. From your other thread it sounded exactly like the issue I had when the throttle switch wasn't triggering on closed throttle.

I have a spare throttle switch you can try, however it came off a car at the wreckers so I have no idea if it is any good.
