    Burn out the rear bushings, I thought I would try to be smart and push them out and that was the worst mistake I ever made.

    Torch em, let em burn then whack them with a good ol flat head and hammer!

        Ask Chris how pulling the rear subframe outta the parts car E28 went. Even with the diesel truck we couldn't get that bitch out. So I think it's safe to say, mine might get burned out, while on the car.

          Are the subframes on e28's set up like e30's?

          I am almost scared to ask, but how did you use his truck to help?

            not a fucking clue. I'd assume their relatively the same.

            We uh. undid all the bolts, hooked up a tow rope to it, and uh. Diesel power took over. Still didn't budge.

              Well if its anything like an e30 you can't pull it back, it has to drop down first.

              I always use a 7/8" lag and a 5lb sledge!

                      I have a spare subframe sitting is Zachs garage that I need to grab once the diff and trailing arms are off. I definitely plan to burn them out. I also think I might send out my trailing arms to have them made adjustable. Anyone want to buy my wastegate still? Lol

                              You people and your oversized turbos;) lol I was going to run my custom built TD06SL2-17c on my 2.6l in the conquest. Would have been quite the power house for how "small" people would think that turbo is.

                                Here is something compact related. So this morning, I was thinking why BMW made the e46 compact so ugly. I then got the idea to photoshop prefacelift headlights in. I never saw anyone do it, but it looks a million times better. I would seriously have bought one if they were offered in the US.

                                        I only flipped it because I was too lazy to flip the headlight donor car. lol But I did it for the sake of having the headlights, not caring about anything else.

                                          I'd rock either one. I never knew they did a compact E46, the headlights look goofy, but I'd rock them.
