    Fronts must be 8's then. Did wheels change other than finish in the s52 to s54 Roadsters?

    M Roadsters came with 7.5" wide fronts with 225s, 8.5" rears with 245s.

    Stop doing coke.

    Here is my setup

    M42 with chip and ford injectors
    Welded 4.10 diff
    IE springs
    Billy sports
    IE Big Sways
    IE Poly subframe and trailing arm bushings
    M3 control arm bushings
    e36 steering rack

    my alignment:
    Front: 0 toe 1.6 camber
    Rear: 0 toe 1.2 camber


    I need more power but for now it works. I want to add spacers on the tie rods for more angle but my rims (17x7.5 et20) are hitting the sway-bar at full lock so i need some spacers first. also something needs to be done about my crappy ebrake. Adjustment? new shoes? hydraulic? something...
    New shoes should work, I have 0 problem locking mine up at the skidpad. I'm solving the power issue with a little Eaton, hopefully. :)

    New shoes and adjustment should make a world of difference. Make sure the tension is equal side to side. A hydro brake (cutting brake) also does great. Drift hard and long enough using that ebrake and the handle will break though. ask me how I know. :p

    in theory it's also easier to lock it as well since they have the lip on them.

    Same philosophy as the aluminium "drift buttons", they're just "cool" because they're anodized.

    perfect e30 drift car shopping list:

    1x e30
    1x 1jz
    1x microtec
    1x w58 gearbox
    1x hsd front weld on sleeves for the front(like gc)
    1x r32 front coilovers with custom made top bushings.
    1x 2 months long nights and unforgetable memories!
    1x alot of dramas and headache!

    this is what we did when i sold my e30 1jz package to a mate(im going m30b35)
    we made 400.6rwhp it went like all hell and skidded like a boss brakes didnt exist and steering was shit. best time of our lifes!
    please note 10kg front springs and 8kilo rear there was no fuel tank or spare wheel well. it was fully stripped out with re wired car!

    Im running a m50nv with lowtec stiff dampers, i have cut m3springs in the front and some pos lowtec springs in the rear, springs are next on the list, im runing a welded 3.91 diff gives me like 85kmh in second gear, rarely have to use 3rd gear on the track we have here in iceland... Stiffer springs are deffinitely on the list, and a widermtrack in the front,, overall pretty good learners setup, although it deff needs less bodyroll :D





    Cheers
