Thanks Luda and everyone involved. | | | 11-22-2008, 05:47 AM | #317 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: Honolulu, HI Posts: 133 | It seems odd that here on Oahu which is about the most isolated metro area in the world, both RS and myself have received and installed our sway bars, almost a week ago! A thanks from me to all involved, allowing us to benefit from this. As a rule I normally drive at 60mph on the freeway, there are a couple of turns that require most folks to slow down to about 50 or slower... but I've noticed that the handling is easier now, allowing me to control the car that much more. It was like this with my 540 after the strut tower brace was installed, it was a noticeable improvement. Plus the car seems to be more responsive at the steering wheel, it could just be me attempting to sense and gauge every moment on the road but I think it was a good purchase for the ti. __________________ 2005 Steel Blue 325ia: Upgrades/Mods: Lots. 1996 Alpine White: 318ti: Dinan Stage 1 Software.

And yeah, the quick movement of the wheel makes the car noticeably "dartier" if that is a word ha. Also a thanks to Ludicrouspeed. | | | 11-24-2008, 04:27 PM | #319 | Member Join Date: Aug 2007 Location: MD Posts: 92 | Spider, your bar is here, and I think I'd like to find the FedEx driver who lied. As I mentioned earlier, the driver left a tag on my door and marked "2nd attempt" when no first attempt tag was ever left. I called, they refused to make another attempt, so I had to go to their Beltsville location. Just for kicks, you should see how many Beltsville locations they have. I went to one, waited 20 minutes for them to open Saturday morning, was told I was at the wrong place, drove down to the location behind the MVA, had "security" ask if I had a weapon before just waving me through their metal detectors (way to go, guys!), and then sat around for another 15 minutes until someone came out with a big ol' Eibach box. So, I've got it - how/when do you want it (since I know you're on campus). Want it now or do you want to wait until after Turkey day? __________________ Chookeat | | | 11-24-2008, 05:07 PM | #320 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Elizabeth City, NC Posts: 3,877 | Well, I'm not on campus during the day, I am doing a Co-op this semester with an engineering company in Hanover. Not sure what hours you are on campus, but I normally get home around 6. I can definitely take off early one day and meet you if that would help. I suppose I would like to get it before T-day just so that I can take it home with me, but if it doesn't happen it's not the end of the world. __________________ ~Dave~ 98 328ti Morea Grun slicktop 11 128i space gray slicktop 13 JGC WK2 Deep Cherry Search | RealOEM | | | 11-24-2008, 07:47 PM | #321 | Member Join Date: Aug 2007 Location: MD Posts: 92 | Unfortunately, I can't do it tonight because of this paper (oh joy!) and Wednesday will be impossible with travel plans and all that fun stuff. How about Arundel Mills tomorrow evening? Let me know if that works out for you. If not, there's always the following week. It's a pretty big box too, so make sure you've got a little room. __________________ Chookeat | | | 11-24-2008, 08:14 PM | #322 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Elizabeth City, NC Posts: 3,877 | That would be fine for me, what time can you be there? I work 5 mins from there so any time during the day would be fine too. __________________ ~Dave~ 98 328ti Morea Grun slicktop 11 128i space gray slicktop 13 JGC WK2 Deep Cherry Search | RealOEM | | | 11-24-2008, 10:23 PM | #323 | Member Join Date: Aug 2007 Location: MD Posts: 92 | How about 5:30 near that outdoor world? I'll be in a little red wagon parked at the end of one of those rows (near the outer ring). __________________ Chookeat | | | 11-24-2008, 10:25 PM | #324 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Elizabeth City, NC Posts: 3,877 | Sounds good, I'll see you there tomorrow. __________________ ~Dave~ 98 328ti Morea Grun slicktop 11 128i space gray slicktop 13 JGC WK2 Deep Cherry Search | RealOEM | | | 11-25-2008, 07:34 PM | #325 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Elizabeth City, NC Posts: 3,877 | Just picked up my swaybar from Chookeat, this thing is beefy! I can't wait to install this bad boy.

I just got off the phone with Eibach in America. They say they aren't showing any inventory on part number 2044.320, but they are expecting some to be in around in Feb. If you can confirm this is there a possibility for another round of 3+ orders? I followed a lead after i ran into the kit on JEGS website and i called them. They were unsure about the availability because it was a drop ship and offered to call Eibach, but i called instead. MSRP is like 429$ and Jegs has them for 379$, so if we can do a GB I'm in. | | | 12-06-2008, 10:02 PM | #328 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2008 Location: Hawaii Kai Posts: 232 | Quote: Originally Posted by bmw90e30 I just got off the phone with Eibach in America.
