Nice, but If its not to late you might want to consider going with a threaded rod with a nut welded to the middle for adjustments, and a female-ended heim. Add two nuts on either side of the adjustment nut for locking it in.

Since this is a road car, I would prefer the attachment of the heims to the car keep them from rotating rather than a jam nut. I'll take the extra 10 minutes to undo the heims if I really need to adjust the track width.

A good friend is putting them together for me. Should give a couple inches of extra clearance and crush through the oilpan and then set the subframe down. The outside heim I can always shim further too if I want to add more space. Uses the factory outter bushing which I got from Jesse. Should be finishing these up in the next few weeks. I'm splitting the ronals and refinishing the lips, hardware, and reasealing them (leaks). So it'll be a while before the car is on the ground. Just thought you guys might like to see. It's not fixing the geometry at all unless I shim the strut, just making more space, and keeping me from going through ball joints.

Too awesome. Nice engineering going on behind this.

This is, without doubt, the best e21 ever. Seen loads of pics around the net and there is literally nothing I would change on it.
