do you know off hand the number of teeth front verses back?
i have the same setup as you, and have had intermittent abs since day one.
i figured the number of teeth were different, but nows its apperent as i have installed race logic traction control which uses the abs sensors.
the rear wheels show a faster speed than the front. so maybe there are more in the back?
i doubt you could get away with grinding off a tooth or two, but if i really want ABS i might consider making some rings.
for the traction control, i can just change the number of teeth it sees.
nice car by the way.

Sick sick ride Clavin! My only complaint is the E36 offset wheels ;)

Up front, I have about a finger width or more between the outter rim and the strut.

I'll post up when it's sorted out... like wiring colors for the sensors and such.
Do you get any ABS activation? Have you tried? I would be surprised if the system could work around that condition.
ANyway there is alot more to know, if you want, PM me.
Nice work by the way. The thing looks immaculate!
Do you have the original Caster/camber data for a comparo? Did you need to do anything to get the front axle centred? or did it just line up with those bushes? (It looks about right from the pics)
Does anyone know if/how-much the kingpin offset changes?Last edited by btec116; 06-20-2008, 10:52 AM.

I know all about the ring differences and such... the main thing for me was getting the electrical correct. E36 ABS sensors have 3 wires whereas E30 have 2. I am still not sure if I even care about ABS at all anymore. My plan is to eventually stick some matching rings onto the rear axles.
As far as the centering goes, it's nearly centered in the wheel well. There is a pic up top that shows the specs and the actual alignment numbers. All is well. I did nothing but use the offset bushings and the '97 control arms.
I don't have any data from the previous alignment with the E30-only stuff (H&R sports and just offset control arm bushings). All I have is the new data, and it is good. Coming up are Vorshlag camber plates for the front to add a little bite up there.
She handles sweet and stops like a mother. Not to mention, my tire wear is better now too.
Thanks for stopping by!
