lack of photos of underside makes me go blah. Everyone has seen what an S62 looks like......Super cool build though.

Thanks.
Neat build. Looks pretty well executed.
I wonder how this compares to the German Diva E30 build.
That car is supposed to be pretty stinkin' fast.

I'd also love to know:
(a) a breakout project cost on the E36 M3 rear suspension adaption.
(b) the net weight penalty of that install over the trailing arms and subframe.

And here I thought I was the only one dumb enough to put that kind of work into an E30 chassis, :). They did a really nice job. I've been considering doing the E36 M3 rear end conversion on my car for some time, but I have been concerned about the extra weight being added. Going from our three pickup points (two subframe and one diff) to the more complex E36 setup means lots of tubing to hold it all together. That being said, I know that I can never manage to get more than 43% rear weight distribution with my turbo M52, and I'm sure it is a similar situation with that swap, so all things considered, the extra weight in the rear might not be such a bad thing. I'm sure the E36 rear suspension puts the power down way better as well.
