i finally got all the parts this week to complete my mz3 5 lug suspension. i will be running the car on the street with akg sub frame bushings and weld on adjusters when i get the chance to order them.
i happen to have the good fortune to have the space to store a few parts cars on blocks in the back yard of one of my rentals. my plan is to remove the sub from one of the parts cars and build it up so i will have a drop in unit when i am ready to do my swap.
i have the sub frame choices of an 87 vert, an 88 m3, and a 91 ix. i can get my hands on the sub from an mz3 but i don't even know if that one would fit an e30. i know i don't want to use the ix sub frame since it sets the diff up 12mm higher than a standard rwd car.
without asking the question, my gut instinct would tell me to use the frame out of the parts m3. does anyone have any suggestions or insight?
