    Nice progress.

    Let me know if you ever stumble on another LSD. I will eventually need one once my 4.10 goes out.

          Is this supposed to be a solid trans mount deal? I have a couple uhmw condor mounts attached to a crossmember sitting in my old swap car. But they are damn 1" thick uhmw with a clearance hole lol. A whole 3$ worth of material.

            They are stock e21 with a jacket surrounding the rubber I guess.

            I have the condor trans mounts now. I like them for driving around town and short beat runs but I'm planning on doing a cross country trip with my fiancée this summer and buzzing all the way to Cali isn't too appealing.

              I have plenty of solid trans mounts in the shop if anyone needs them.

                I see I see. Very understandable. What are you thinking for motor mounts? 

                Whats the most stiff/least vibration? At least what the most soft mount thats okay with an FI system?

                  I was going to keep the Condor engine mounts and run a stock-ish trans mount like I had before. It felt solid.

                    Would an auto driveshaft from a 328i work?

                          Got a trans, driveshaft and shifter linkage off a 98 M3 for $240 from Don's.

                          Just need an e30 trans mount/brace thing!! Anyone have one collecting dust with one?

                                    Ordered a bunch of stuff yesteday to get the trans maintenance up to date.  5th and reverse gear drivers (?), output shaft seal, shifter linkage seal, foam selector link thing, a set of drift tools.

                                    Here goes nothing!

                                        What are you looking for? I started a thread about the zf trans with a bunch of links.

                                          Can't wait to get mine running and check out your tail lights.
