    Nice! I'm going to be going with Arc Asylum on the subframe/oil pan for my M54 swap. Looks excellent.

        I was waiting for someone to say this. I can't believe it took this long.

        I saw that and just went "is that... a spark plug?!"

          saw this build in person and it is amazing! Can't wait to see it done....

          Thanks for the intro to this forum. I'll be lurking for that unicorn alpine white m3.

            It's been a while since last update.








            And a big thanks to Garagistic for an amazing work on the rear suspension !

              Did they do all the work to the rear suspension?

              Finally someone was smart and put the toe adjusters at the inner pivots and the camber adjusters at the outer pivots.
