    hows the clarity/bass? i read the sub cant really hit those low tones. I'd probably just buy a used/refurb set. theyre going for around 90 shipped on ebay.

        has a severe lurching problem, but i was going to sort that out and ask $7-800, bring your own wheels. motor sounds healthy enough and no mixing.

          Do the mounting points of the rear strut bar serve the same purpose as the reinforcement plates. I mean I know its not what its meant for but itd be nice if its a "side effect"

Both the plates and the bar built up to the same spot correct? And, do I still need the plates if I was running that bar. If so, will putting both in require me to run longer bolts?
            I'd say no need for plates and the rear bar.

              Even with a stiffer shock/spring set up? I was also trying stiffen up the chassis a bit

                    Oh snaps, didn't realize :rofl: The rear bar sort of does the same job as the plates I assume that's why you don't need both?

                        But on the bright side you could swap this in to the e30...

                              The good news is that you should have lots of heads now. ;) Sorry for your loss.

                              Going to change the rear brakes on the 540. My buddy the UPS guy came yesterday.

                              Rotors are cross drilled Zimmerman that were on sale for $29 each and pads are Akebono Euro Premium which should keep the dust down.
