    If you're going that hard, why not a multi-link front suspension also?

    Man, this will be one mean mother when its done!



















































































    Just kidding, we know this is never going to happen.

              I'm not really sure where this the thread belongs, but it sure isn't General Discussion. Moved to Projects for now...

                  Never stifled, only banished to the Project Forum! I like the pics of the e30 and e36 rear subframes, I have both manuals and have seen pics of them and seen them with my own eyes, they indeed have different pick up points on the chassis. I'm thinking maybe a shit load of JB weld and rubber cement may hold the e36 subframe for my ultimate build. Ok all bullshit aside. I guess I got to get serious and just get to work measuring and doing some math. I'll start posting crappy ifone pics to make everybody happy.



                  But please keep any info coming if you all have any good, bad or shitty!

                              This is prob the best place for this thread, I'll morph it into my build thread.
