            Ahh poo hey.. Mine has almost 500,000k on it and is super tired.. So I plan on doing the chassis rebuild first then swapping it for something cheaper for parts and easier to maintain. May also convert to Nissan knuckles some how to avoid having to weld $1400 to the stock e30 strut tubes.. I dont like the idea of coils being permanently attached..

              Yep it's not ideal, but gotta do what you gotta do. Wow that's up there in km! Yea that sounds like a good plan tho. E30s are definitely weird that way how you gotta weld em to the struts.

                Yea "not ideal" puts it lightly lol that being said there has to be a knuckle out there that will work.. Once I find a compatible part (or parts) to make the mod work it will for sure be going in my build thread and on youtube [emoji14] though for the purists it may never be an option.
