    Peeps,

    I know these seem like a great idea and all the info on them suggests they stiffen things up somewhat. However I am surprised if that gap they fill in the subframe suspension is not actually deliberate. I mean, its not a wear or manufactuing problem, design fault or other oversight (surely) or they would have fixed it in the 8 years they made the car, (let alone considering the e32).

    wouldn't it be great to find out from BMW why that gap is there... i mean perhaps the gap is there to allow the dogbones to do their thing with controlling camber, or it could be something else entirely...

    Anyway, it's just a thought... I'm pretty close to getting a set as everyone likes major stiffness
