i'm interested.. ball park $$ cost?
I am talking for the Pure drivers who want their E34 to react as soon as they turn the wheel.
Full metal/metal bushing with grease nipple. We could also do excentric bushings for more or less negative camber.
Expect some road noises being transmitted.
We have a set that is on test on a BMW E34 535i turbo on the race track.
So far we experienced with a lot of urethane bushings and none was satisfactory, but the metal bushing is great.
Keep me posted if any of you guys are interested.

I'm interested. The ride teeth shattering?
I am aiming around 160 - 200US for the set because it will be a limited production.Originally Posted by Incantation
They will be sold as a bushing alone or bushing pressed into the arm (for extra money).

Excpect some noise being transmitted but the ride should be the same.Originally Posted by Torque
The reactivity of the car while turning will be very quick as there won't be any compliance in the bushing.
There shouldn't be any more bushing to change neither as this is the ultimate radical bushing.
I understand that this bushing won't be for everyone but only the hard core E34 drivers that are going to the track and are tired of changing bushings every year or 2 years (like I used to do).

Would this be a "final" bushing. (i.e. it wouldn't wear out in normal conditions)? Would the non-compliance of the bushing negativly affect the rest of the suspension (control arms, etc...)

i need new bushings bad, but im no track captain, or "racing king" do you have maybe an economical more road than track solution?
hmm.. sounds like you want the 750i bushing...Originally Posted by kyleN20

You can get the M5 bushing and add some liquid urethane in the cavities. That should last even longer than the 750i bushingsOriginally Posted by kyleN20
