Still remaining to buy:
coil overs
brake pads & fluid (still on the fence about pads)
front stainless brake lines

Not sure if I asked/you answered, but any interest in my coilover setup or coilover/bbk setup

I didn't even know you had stuff. Just bought brakes/calipers too.......
-
I've got a stance coilover/camber plate setup already welded up ready to bolt on. I also have a RX7 BBK that I could include.
Bad picture, but:
-
Do you know the spring rates?
I probably won't need the brake stuff as I've already ordered brakes/calipers

That's some serious cash coming from the guy who didn't want to buy a radiator fan relay.
Keep up the good work!! -
Brake supplies are in! Just need to get some front stainless lines and pads/fluid
-
wheel bearings/lock rings, rack boots/clamps, rear sway bar mount reinforcements came today
getting closer
-
Got the new wheel bearings and hubs pressed into the trailing arms today.
Only things I'm waiting on is the skid plate & tierods (and the crap I haven't ordered yet)
Gonna hopefully convince myself to work on it tomorrow
-
This was more of a pain in the ass than I'd like to admit, especially by myself
Butttttt the rear sway bar is in. ST 19mm. Can't imagine doing that with all the subframe crap in the way
-
-
Rest of the parts have arrived.
24v skid plate from red46
Inner and outer e36 tierods
Driveshaft nuts
Spring pads
Still need to order
Suspension (coils?)
Brake pads
Front brake lines
And probably some misc stuff
-
sway bars suck third-ed and move to strike.
glad you got a skid plate, they are 100% necessary for these swaps.

Only thing I'm nervous about is I have an aftermarket core support (my original one was kinda twisted and rusty) the aftermarket China ones work well enough, they are just quite thin and bendy. I think it should work because the red46 plate includes some hardware (drilling required) which includes a plate to sandwich the core support. Should be fine unless I go bounce off some rocks out in moab

You could always cut the core support open and stick a piece of square tube in there.
Wait, e30's aren't supposed to go to Moab? I better cancel my trip.....
