The rack on my 91' 318IS is leaking all over the undercarriage and I want to get it replaced. I was looking at upgrading to either E36 or E46 rack. Doing some reading online everyone says E46 is a better rack or Z3. I found a 94' 318IS at the wreckers. Looking up the rack on realoem shows interchange with a Z3. Does this mean it's a same rack as Z3? Is this a better rack than E46 non M3?

Turning the wheel is about 1.5 turns in either direction.

I wouldn't invest the effort in a JY rack and I've bought several and from rackdr and the results always put a smile on my face.
note...that garagistic kit is for non airbag cars and IIRC 91 would be airbag in which case you have to open the firewall a bit but don't need that kit
