      Working on it. The problem is the spherical bearing is so thick that there is not much thread left. Thin aurora bearings cost $45 each compared to $12. What about those needle bearing?

        The needle bearings still suck balls dude. I've gone through 2 sets and not looking to replace for a third.
        What about, these Aurora bearings you speak of?

              When I first got my white M3, I let it sit a while, while I was trying to fix it up so I didn't transfer ownership until the final month and before I knew it the registration had lapsed. I kept it on the street under a car cover thinking it would be fine. I had to get a cat installed to pass smog and transfer ownership. A month after expiration I got a parking ticket under the cover for expired registration. I was so pissed. DOT is thirty right now. They will write you up for anything...even missing front plates while parked. Even if a ticket is dismissed due to their error, they STILL hit you with a $10 administrative fee which is all BS. It's a win-win for the state.

                Needle bearings work great when they are used properly. If the force applied is not perpendicular to the race then they will not last very long.

                      This guy says he's willing to swap E36 M3 for E30 325iS 5 speed or E30 318iS Slicktop straight up....

                        can anyone recommend me a good, reasonably priced resonator.
                        or perhaps a good set of resonated tips.

                          Hmmm, so the force applied from linear springs, is not perpendicular? I'm confused.
