    Looking into the gearbox crossmember now. Because my gearbox is the 37dz variant it's rotated 10 degrees and its quite far back in the trans tunnel, so I have to pick up on the rear set of slides. I assume there are some factory mounts that pick up on these points, does anyone know what they'd be from? I'm struggling for inspiration but this is what I have so far:
    Your design looks just like the Kassel Performance one (and others).

      Hey Hedgehog - I'm doing a similar engine swap (putting a N52 into an E30). Did you find an easy solution for the exhaust? I've found cheap N52 headers online that are designed for E30 engine swaps but they're all for LHD. I'm thinking of getting one of those and modifying to get around the steering column if necessary. Did you have any thoughts? Also well done on the custom engine mounts!! I bought a pair of AKG mounts but YouShop lost them early Dec and haven't been able to find! That was a waste of $800+
