Scraped, sanded & wire-wheeled my way into being the next face of a class action lawsuit for mesothelioma tonight in the garage. Most of the junk is "prepped" for undercoating spray bombs.
So much dust x__x
im actually pretty happy with how not shitty the underside of this car is thanks to the previous leaky m50. All the hard mounting points for everything are actually in good shape

Got around to cleaning up the front subframe I bought from ray and the rear subframe that's been in my car for forever. (I have reinforcements for both) I will update with photos shortly.
It was another awful & dusty day but hopefully it will be worth it.
this is how I pushed the power flex bushings out after snaking some wd-40 in between the subframe and bushing
-
Acorns in my fuggin subframe
-
Ready for reinforcements
Still need to clean up the diff and rear trailing arms.

Anyone have recommendations for coils? I've been leaning towards CAtuned & have spoken with Collin about his... Anything else I should look at? Goals are not stants low, but will want it to be adjustable & stiffer than the crap I have. I figured coils over hr/billies because I could get different rates for the extra weight up front. I'll be running stock sway bars as well
-
BC Racing, CaTuned, or Fortune 500's
These are the ones I was kicking around.
Might go with CAtuned for the whole core exchange thing/come welded/new wheel bearings

Finally got the axles out of the hubs thanks to an impact
Long story short the bearings are going to be replaced
Just need to get the hub pressed out now

For coilovers i have Ksport Coilovers. They offer a setup for e30's that include "true rear" coilovers in the rear that i really enjoy in my drift e30.

Going to a friends shop tomorrow to use a press. If for whatever reason that falls through, what kit did you go with?
