thanks

Great write up.

And thanks for the subframe alignment plate write up. I ordered the plates during the black Friday sale, and a new oil pan, and some 95A rear subframe bushings. All that for $75 under the cost of the whole subframe on sale

Thanks for the dash writeup, Im about to tackle that this weekend and would have came across the issues too installing a non airbag dash with an airbag dash.

Nice writing and awesome work. Great project!

Thanks!

Just spent the last few hours reading this.
Nice work on fixing up this car.

I need to get motivated on fixing my photobucket and transferring to Flickr

Nice work on replacing the rear subframe and all those bushings

Thank you sir! Ugh I know how that goes, I was so pissed when I had to repopulate the thread, but in the end I'm glad that I did. Even when I was using photobucket it was so cumbersome with the advertisements. Flickr is miles better.

Unfortunately, I'll have a post in the upcoming months about the subframe and those bushings... I'm officially condemning poly trailing arm bushings. Switching back to rubber RTABs.

I was supposed to be working on a paper, but I figured my time would be better spent looking through your rehab.

#1 I love your workbench. Simply awesome.
#2 Im loving the rehab on this car.
#3 Keep it up, its on its way to something special

Hah! That workbench has been one of most useful things I've ever made, it also functions quite well as a beer pong table ;)

I sure hope so :up:

1. Baller work.
2. Thank you for said baller work. I've referred back to this thread many times for help replacing parts on mine. Great documentation! This is why e30s have such a vast online knowledge base.

Thanks!!

Means a lot, I learn as I go here and R3v has been a massive resource of information. Glad I'm able to give back to the community, plus I admit I enjoy documenting it all. Through frustrating times it's nice to look back and realize how far it's come to light the fire under my ass to get past the hurtles ;D

These are silly cars, really.

Right next to the z3 is a vert sway bar calling your name..... if it's still there of course.

Edit: Nevermind. After looking at the pics again, it's clearly not an e30.

You're right that's an E36 vert (stole the antenna from it) ... but! There is an E30 vert in the yard as well, looks like I better plan another trip ;)

Oh god, sounds like Bust A Nut was about as good of a scrap yard as you'd expect with a name like that lol. Well I can say I'm jealous. The steering ratio in my car has been driving me crazy lately

Hah! No need to get jealous yet, it will be a bit until I can swap it in. Reppin' the 4 turn rack for the moment.

Man, your car is looking better and better every day!! Keep it up, and do mine next ;)

Which one? ;)

Thanks! About 2 hours I'd say, an hour of which was weeding and figuring out how to get the car jacked up safely.

You could probably pull one in an hour or so if the car is already in the air.
