    The only explanation I have is the one from Ground Control. As for the end result the custom control arms where required (photo already posted) to adjust the caster. The max camber you can get from the e36 setup is 1.5 degrees unless it is shimmed up at the bottom. It really is a lot of headache and VERY expensive. So unless you want the added braking power (which is AWESOME) then just go with the e30 m3 set up. It will cost you about the same and much easier to install and adjust. But now that I do have the e36 set up, I am sure that I would not be happy with the basic e30 m3 set up.

      So its basically an e36 m3 setup with the 318ti setup in the rear w/ m3 brakes, and then the custom LCAB setup? Just clarifying. It turned out great looks wise.
