    actually, I'm curious - does the RWD subframe bolt up to the ix frame? I'm also wondering what you'll do for the rear tranny x brace, although you pretty much need a customized one for the ZF tranny anyway.
    AWSOME... I GOT YOU THINKING...

    the subframe thats mounted on the ix sits more forward than the one for the i... when i placed the (i) subframe on to the car i noticed the control arms could not be mounted it was shorter. I then looked at the chassis it self and realized there were 2 bolt patterns on it. One was for the ix subframe and the other for the i. I was pretty amazed and lucky because i would have been screwed. (which I'm guessing you guys hoped it would happen.. lol) any ways.. i used the ix shock mounts because the bolt pattern is much larger, i struts, ix H&R springs, bilstien Sports for i struts. car sits perfect and straight

    another item i have to purchase is a larger sway bar.. but that shouldn't be a problem. :mrgreen:

      The tranny mount... Ya that got me scared to but my buddy has a mig welder so were going to be fabricating one. Most likely were going to extend the bracket originally used for the (i) chassis.

      As for the rear subframe, i think its the same for the i. i mean i did bolt up the rear diff from my ix to my convertible.

      Hahahaha.. an e30 convertible with 3.91 Pazi Traction..

        rear subframe is slightly different, the bushings are taller which drops the subframe down about 1/2" lower.
