        it looks really far off. Far enough to maybe have e30 Control arms in it still?

          Thats what I meant to ask.
          What control arms do I need to put in this thing?
          Guy I bought it from said they were 97m3 arms.

              I've been looking and it says that even with 97m3 arms the caster is still an issue?
              What do you guys do to perfectly center the wheel?

                  hey thanks. I searched and couldn't find anything. It has ground control camber/caster(toe?) plates. I was thinking of maybe rotating the plate 90 degrees or at 3 o'clack I'll have more caster adjustment and less camber.I understand new holes will need to be drilled. Think it's worth a shot?

                      ok.. I sold the whole 5lug setup to a guy here in houston for about $200. I low balled myself but I need all I can get. I decided not to go 4lug or e30 m3. I'll stick to the stock e36m3 setup for now. Plenty of power and room to upgrade. Guy that bought the parts suggested it would be best and I have to agree. He said he was a member here and if I mentioned his name (ethirtyslut) you all would know who he was.

                      Right now I'm working on cutting off the roof. Everything will be welded back into place once the cage and frame reinforcements are made. pics to come fellas!

                              check the casting numbers on the control arms to see if they really are 97 e36m3. they should be 465 and 466
