E30 Blower Motors

If you're pulling parts off the Z3, grab the steering rack for your E30 and get rid of the leaky POS you probably have in there =)

Nah, I already put an E36 rack in it!

I have a spare blower motor from my last 1988 E30. I would be happy to ship it to you for next to nothing. Send me a PM

16v corvey. you started the thread so i think you should have first dibs.... but if you dont want it i definitely do. anything running is better than my racketmaker!

ccrelan. i'm sending you a pm but give dibs to 16 corvey if he does too!

I want a z3 rack pretty bad

I've already PM'ed, but there are two different styles so if it happens to be wrong for me (I'm not sure which one I need yet), I'll pass it along to you next.

The Z3 rack is really no better than the E36 rack. The E36 M3 rack is the one with the tightest ratio. The Z3 rack actually has the same steering ratio as the E36 rack, but it's travel is limited. It sounds impressive to hear that is 2.7 turns lock to lock instead of the 3.2 turns lock to lock on the E36, but it actually just turns less.

Old thread, but for future reference, there are two heater core types, aluminum or plastic inlet barbs, and that determines which blower you need:
