It's been a while since I have parted out my car and have been housing these parts in my garage since:

19mm/25mm Euro M5 sway bars: near new complete with bushings $200 + shipping

Supersprint cat back exhaust for M50 525i (maybe others also): Resonator and muffler. Good shape except 1 dent in resonator. Sounds nice. New $800. Sell $300 obo.

Complete Rack and pinion conversion for 6 cylinder E34. Custom job using 95 VW Jetta rack, cutom tie rods, steerirng shaft, etc. Stock tie rod ends....
Cost for project: $$ Silly amount $$. Sell: $500
(This includes subframe and everything and is a bolt on operation with much more steering precision than stock RB setup).

Thanks, Colin

Hi Colin, can you email me some pics of that r&p setup? Why are you selling it, did you sell the car and put all the original parts (like the sways) back on? How did you like the feel of it compared to the recirc. ball? Will this fit on a 91' 535i?

Thanks in advance,

Here are the old threads on his R&P setup. There used to be pics, not sure if the links still work.

Colin, I tried to send an e-mail but it wouldn't go through. Sent a PM through this forum.

Allan,
I parted the whole car out so I never went back to the RB steering afterwards. The r&P has better precision and feedback. Ratio is about the same with the current rack, though a GTI rack can be swapped for a quicker ratio.

I will send pics asap.

i'd buy the exhaust, but i have a feeling it'll cost a lot to ship.
