Replacing cooling system components and performing a proper coolant flush will ensure a long life for your cooling system. Most of the cooling system components are exposed to very high temperatures and repeated thermal cycling.

Avoid headaches altogether and replace all problematic items at once to keep your cooling system running efficiently.

The E30 3 series continues to be praised as one of the best sporting cars on the road by automotive industry insiders. Unfortunately, D.O.T. safety regulations required all vehicles on American roads to be equipped with low speed impact bumpers often known as "5 mph bumpers".

ECS is proud to announce the availability of Euro market bumpers. Now you can have cleaner, sleeker European styling on your early model E30.

Wheel bearings are one of the most crucial components of a car's suspension. They are usually located in the hub or even the brake drum or rotor itself. Wheel bearings allow the wheel to rotate freely as the car travels down the road. Most cars have an inner and an outer bearing on each wheel. Problems with wheel bearings arise from wear, which can be caused by a variety of factors. Symptoms of a bad bearing are noisy rubbing as the car is driven and that usually gets louder as speeds increase. If you are having these issues, be sure to replace them today.
