In the case of Per's LeGrand Mk 18 project, I guess the answer is three. He just replaced them in addition to making a few other changes prior to a few late-season autocross events.

Here's the latest update. I'm scared of what he's going to do when the season is really over!

According to the E30... three is the correct number.

"Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out."

Five. One for the clutch, one for the front wheels, one for the rear wheels, one for the handbrake, and one on the handbrake that disengages the rear axle.

In reply to Ian F:

Hard to say, there's the front uprights and most of the original central aluminum monocoque are original---original pieces of aluminum that is. The changes to the front are essentially recreating aluminum panels that were pretty beat up with multiple holes, as well as some updates to the braking/cooling/aero.

34 years will beat the snot out of a race car.

To answer Tom's question. one for front, one for rear and one for clutch.
