Happy holidays R3V!

Another year, another layer of dust.

For any M3 guys reading this (or regular E30 guys who want to go 5 lug proper), KW is doing a preorder for E30M3 coilovers with a manufactured spindle! For the non-M3 guys, it sadly does not include the NLA ackerman arms, but for us M3 folk it is an exciting development considering that I don't have to chop up my stock housings. Cant thank mjweimer enough for putting me onto this.

Needless to say, I preordered a set of V1s.

It’s about time! And someone is manufacturing Ackerman arms on S14.net (I’m sure you saw that).

Once the ackerman arms are made that sounds like an easy way to 5stud convert, thanks for posting

Agreed! It'll be nice to have this stuff available.

Here is the ackerman arm group buy link: https://s14net.vbulletin.net/forum/s...eering-knuckle

I was informed that I was incorrect over on s14..... according to this photo the Ackerman arms will be included, making this deal even sweeter.

The M3 KWs showed up! I also scored a spare g265 and a spare M3 afm recently, as well as a NOS rear wheel hub that I need for the pass rear of this car.

God the KWs look nice. I'd totally consider them for mine if the Australian dollar wasn't so doodoo at the moment

I know it! And the price is more than fair for what you’re getting.

Also, there’s a Massive Brakes group buy happening over on S14.net so there are a guys selling their stock E30M3 brake setups. Aka perfect time to use the M3 KWs to convert a non-M to 5 lug the right way.

My buddy on our local Tristate forum that I've been on since the beginning of time reminded me that I still owned the M3.... I then realized that I brought this thing home exactly four years ago! Dec 30, 2016. Happy four years, honey. I'm sorry I've neglected you. Your day will come soon.

What a beauty! Maybe 2021 is the year?

Your red M look better than mine.
I thought about KW coil overs. I’m still deciding about KW or GC.
