can is use 318ti brakes?

The e30 M3 spindle is much larger then the non m. You cannot just slap a wheel hub assembly on the front.

If it was as easy as $500 worth of new hub assemblies don't you think everyone would have 5lug?

yeah thats what i was thinking, but secretly i was hoping you could do something in the front. It doesnt help i cant find m3 front struts!

yeah... sorry about that- it was something i remembered from a conversation with bryson about a year ago... I don't think bryson has worked with mz3 stuff... but then again, i could be spreading misinformation again.

Bryson used e36 325i front suspension. Rear I *think* was 318ti or Z3. Basicly the same either way.

I don't know of anyone else on this forum with MZ3 rear arms/brakes.

erik?

so if i went the 325i route i would need the 97+ control arms, correct?

Don't use e36 front suspension.

The resulting geometry is very unfavorable.

I could have had all the e36 M3 front suspension/brakes etc for free. I went with the proper method instead.

i guess ill hold out for m parts. whats the going rate for the struts? i have no clue what to offer?

I paid $375 for my complete e30 M3 front strut assemblies.

with calipers?

with calipers?

No. Strut assembly, lever arms, and wheel hub/bearing.

I got e36 M3 calipers for free, and bought new e36 M3 rotors.
