    Which subframe with disc brakes fit rear?

    I have brake drums in the rear on my m20b20 coupe.

    It happened so that i have went into the corner, span out and hit my rear right wheel into the curb which caused my wheel to go inside in the bottom. I tried to inspect, but since i do not have much knowledge on what usually bends and i can hardly see what is bent i suspect the left fork mount on the "bridge" is bent inside towards differential. which caused the fork to more inwards.

    Question is: If i have to change all rear subframe with forks to an option with brake discs which model i should be looking for? And is it worth trying to fix the mounts where left part of fork is connected to it? Or a lot of balancing would be required and it can cause the parts to be more fragile?

    Thanks for any info :)

    Anything other than an early 318 or 320i should have rear discs, as far as I know.

    I'm not sure what else is going to be different (ebrake cables?) to swap them.

        You need to change the trailing arms, ebrake cables and of course calipers and rotors. The subframes are all the same.
