I honestly am not sure, but all the bushings have been replaced, a ZHP knob added and some shirt throw shifter and it makes the car so much more modern. The only thing I want to add is a DSSR but it really isn't necessary.. But I did add a 4 spoke M3 wheel and it is thicker and feels a lot better in my hand, I like the big wheel especially once I added the seat.

Thank you so much, I really love the support.

They flow so nicely, look up style 30's with are a double spoke stock wheel and these are like a refined version, it just works, these were supposed to be wheels to just get throughout the winter but honestly I love them ill probably end up keeping them, thanks for the support man.

okay I put a lot of miles on my car, I've had 3 cars with welded diffs and I've welded them all myself (read I'm poor and can weld half decent) Ive only ever had one problem and it was on a 180k mile diff and and i had a cv joint break on me and after that the diff felt funny. I only run a 205 or 215 in the rear but I am very aggressive on my car.

It depends on a lot of factors, the quality of the weld, strength of the diff/axles and the load (horsepower and traction available) alottt of people have no issues with welded diffs and some do. I say go for it. I love it and it makes the car drift great, for all the people that say "you'll wreck in the rain and it chews through tires" thats mostly bullshit. My car won't get sideways unless I INTENTIONALLY make it get sideways and the only reason I change tires is because I wore them out through drifting.

do it and you'll love it. and its cheap. open diffs are cheap if it does break, and they perform better compared to worn out old lsd's

Want me to measure mine? I could help you spend money

I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to do. Most bmws are pretty close in regards to seat mounting.

How was the stud kit to install? thats next up on my list I think. Also wish I could just buy the one vader for my passenger side lol since Im waiting a while to do a race seat over there due to price.

Cars looking great tho. Oh if you check out understeer.com they have some cool cheap projects like wrapping the selector shaft thing with copper solder and tape to make it heavier instead of spending a lot on an upgraded one. I deff need to do all my bushings tho shifter is kind of sloppy.

which length did you get? and do you mind getting a pic of how far they stick out of the wheel?

this is the best I have at the moment (I'm at school) but I think I ordered 78mm that where on sale because they were cosmetically damaged but the ones I received were perfect lol. So 78mm studs can take up to a 20mm spacer but this picture is my rear wheel with a 12mm spacer and they are flush with the wheel holes
