    Nope worth nothing, send them to me.

    But i think they actually are, the control arms appear to be aluminum, and the 5 lug, all points to a big fat yes. Im not an m3 expert.... so take with a cube of salt.

      GL finding brakes for those, lol.

      Something doesnt look right about the inner ball joint shaft on those CAs...

      Everything else looks to be on the up and up.

        Those were the two things I'm thinking of. They're for sale, and the price is so right I'd be an absolute retard not to buy them. Has other M3 parts, too.

          Looks like somehow the sleeve of the sub-frame came off on the ball joint. But those are welded in... Those CAs are also junk, you know that right?

            Is it the sleeve from the subframe, or just another sleeve to protect the threads. If it's the former, you're probably screwed. Either way, they look pretty beat. M3 CAs have non-replaceable balljoints if I remember correctly also.

              Yep, they sure do look to be beat to fuck but if I have to buy them to get the tie rod arms I'll sell them for scrap aluminum and almost make the money back for them.

                Well I picked up the front struts, rear trailing arms, an e28 lsd, a set of us grilles, M3 tails/bulb holders, steering rack, M3 trans... plus some more for $255.

                Right now I'm looking into the possibilities of using e36 calipers/carriers on them as I also happen to have a parts E36.

                I'd say I did well :)

                  As for brakes, can't you just make E28 stuff work?

                    Did you pick up the CAs? Those knuckles are close to 200 per side if not more.

                      Yep took the CAs as well, they really aren't in that bad of shape in person, however, I think they're best suited as garage ornaments.

                          Brake options: E24/E28 calipers, E36 calipers with rotor spacers, aftermarket and of course stock E30 M3.

                            Once I figure out exactly what I'm doing with them and/or what car they're going on. I still have to piece together a rear hub/bearing, and rear brake carriers. Apparently they're available new but pricey.

                              They'll pop up on s14.net every once in a while, do some searching a few months back and then post up a WTB if there are no recent threads for some for sale. There were a few not too long ago, IIRC.
