Okay, I just drew it up, cut it out, and it looks like its going to do the job perfectly. I'll get to welding tomorrow and make sure the prototype fits. The shitty part is I have a 60 mile round trip to my shop... oh well.
I'm just using 1/4" flat bar for construction which should be more than adequate. The factory brace is made from 1/16" steel... thats extruded of course, but 1/4" should make up for it. I'm also making it so you can use the stock e30 tranny mounts (dont have to get the e21 mounts).
what kind of price do you guys think is fair?

The price depends on how long it takes you to make each one and how much time it took you to fab up the first one. I wouldnt imagine the parts expence would be much, right?

I like the idea of being able to use the stock E30 transmission mounts. That way we could run urethane mounts.
Price, of course, goes hand-in-hand with quality of workmanship and the demand for them.
Man, if I wait long enough, there's nothing I'm going to have to fab myself for this swap! Just need someone to make E30M50 converted brake boosters now. :)-Brandon

I would make some trans brackets no problem for around $150 - 200. But my problem is the issue with safety and the whole lawsuit issue. Let me know your thoughts.91 m3Comment

I got 90% done fabbing one up today... I was somehow distracted by pulling my engine out... What kindof time frame is everybody on?

Yep, not cheap compared to scoring deals and doing the small changes on a used one.Originally posted by rede30Comment

Are you talking about the brace that is fairly flat and is a u type of shape?Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.
