Looking good so far, where did you source your wheels through? I have a guy not far from me with an SR swapped e30 his workshops does a lot of e30 work but SA to NSW if you want any help with the swap I can pass on his details to you

[mr.vang]

i love your all Subarus. this e30 is in good hand forsure

[bmwandhonda]

Sportmax's :( another e30 has fallen to the dark side.

Still though, keep it up mate, always good to see more e30's popping up on the Australian scene :)

[smerfs]

Wait, aren't e30's not capable of supporting a rear coilover without a cage and strut tower support? I was under the impression that they will blow through towers

Cheers Guys having a lot of fun with this E30 ;)
