    I’m pretty far out on the East side but work on the West. So you there’s a good chance to see me around. Once some new parts start trickling in I’ll start a very lame build thread so my car might be a bit more identifiable.

    I’m in Cottage Grove, are you further East than that? Lol if you see some idiot in a lifted E36 be sure to wave 👋🏼

    Drove this most of the winter. Heat worked great, traction was sketchy, but it was a blast. The light bar was the only thing that didn’t survive. The brackets were made from ACM, and I thought they would have been stronger but the cold made them brittle and it came down on the windshield one morning. So now I mounted it to the bumper with metal brackets. It will be more usable here anyways, as before snow, rain, and dust would blind my sight with it on.  Now I won’t be able to run into random shopping carts and road cones without risking damage but oh well. 😕

    I also had to trim a brake shield in the rear. With that, it gave me an opportunity to try out my new shipping scale. These tires are BOAT ANCHORS!

    Hello,

    I am trying to figure out sway bar setup for my e21. I have e36 front suspension sway and e28 rear but stock e28 rear bar is not ideal because the bump in the middle to clear e28 diff mount and e36  front has too much hanging below the frame rails. 
     

    Looking at the pictures it seems that e30 might be a good match. 
     

    Could someone please measure their front and rear sway bars for me?

     

    I am looking for the arm lenght and width between the arms. Also if there is a part of the bar that hangs lower than the arms it would be nice to know how much lower it is.

     

    Thank You

     

    I can take a look tomorrow for you if I remember.

    I’ve personally seen this car in person. It’s very well done, but I still for the life of me do not understand the rear doors.

    This is lovely, and I hate red cars.
