Sup bros, looking to step up into an e36 for my next drifto car - the e30 just wasn't up to the task. By that I mean combo'd with my engine swap [302 ford], otherwise I'd say a turbo m20 car would make for a good drift car. Anyway here's the advantages I can see:
1. The E36 can use a stock mustang oil pan as opposed to the hacked up front sump pan the E30 requires. Due to the exhaust/oil filter/rack clearance the E30 sump is about 4-4.5 quarts. The E36 can use a canton road race pan with baffles & shit
2. Don't have to fuck with manual brakes, keep the brake booster where it is!!!
3. More space between the water pump snout and the radiator. Allows the use of a pull fan + shroud oh yeahhhh
4. With a 750il diff conversion the shit will not break or rip out of the subframe
5. Apparently the stock clutch master will work
Disadvantages:
1. It's an E36
2. Ugly IMO
3. Need to reinforce subframe
4. ???
All the forums I've seen via googling for info have either been garbage or come off as super douchey. Anyone got any other info / forum suggestions for the E36?
