So my car has been insured for like 2 weeks now of daily driving and I've driven it like 3 days prior to that, but I've already blown seals out of 2 racks... It blows both sides and just dumps fluid into the boots. I was drifting last time it happened but I've drifted it before on the same rack with no issue. I'm running all oem stuff (hoses, stock pump, ect) but with 5mm rack spacers.
Could my issue be that it's over pressurizing the rack at high rpm? Is there a fix to this? I'm not entirely sure if the restrictor valve thing is still in the line from when I swapped it, so that could be my issue?
The car is a 95 m3 but the rack I swapped in is a 92 325i rack, the m3 rack was blown when I bought the car.
anyone with any insight on this kinda stuff would be greatly appreciated. In the meantime I'm gonna try and source another rack because I've got 15 days till the first drift day of the season :help
