Re: Kraut Drifter Introduction...
Did you have to order some kind of custom bearings to fit the nissan outer hub to the bmw inner part? Or was it an off-the-shelf bearing that's not too hard to get a hold of?

Re: Kraut Drifter Introduction...
The R33 hub outer diameter is 43mm, there are different bearings for e36/e46 and i ordered the bearings for the 328i/325tds with an 42mm inner diameter. So i just have to machine the r33 hub, i think 1mm less shouldnt be too bad for the strength of the hub.

Re: Kraut Drifter Introduction...
Thats the work from today, arms are back in, tomorrow i have to machine a centering spacer for the brake discs and drill the holes for the new pattern in it. Didnt work much on it today cause Charles KaKi NG came to hangout with TR Germany and i decided to set the aligment on his m3 cause it drove like shit...
