                    • Want to lower the front but don't want to sit on bump stops
                      Flaring the front arches have made the lip go up and I've been disliking the arch gap more and more. really shouldn't lower it I guess as less than 20mm clearance on chassis/steering rack. (Without driver/passenger/tyres/gear for drift days! LOL! sits on the stops when its loaded.)
                      well they have worn away higher about 1cm over the past year lol.
                      Rear has lots left, will go down about 1cm as I pulled the arches some more
                      exhaust leak is getting bigger too... I **** exhaust leaks!!!!!

                        • Lil update after Lydden!
                          Fuckin sick, intake elbow collapses now from how hot it was that day. had to remove the air filter (sock) to get rid of some restriction and it stopped collapsing.

                          Got a in car video but unfortunately the outside was so bright ! but if you know lydden its better to watch.
                          Improved throughout the day and the video was only 2nd outing

                          [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1e-9u1kwbH0"]SUPERSTYLE E36 Compact @ Lydden Hill 18th August 2012 - YouTube[/ame]

                          had the ecu flashed with a good map before lydden and it was amazing! set the rev limit to 7200rpm. I can stay in 2nd longer and spin up the wheels more /more speed before paddock hill now. it helped a lot.


                          some random pics



                          replaced this... mega bent

                          • Working on the fitment as I've started to dislike it more and more after seeing so many clean, low, tight drifters in Japan.
                            So new front wings and lowered the rear, till it almost rubs.

                            Rolled with a half inch bar. Need to flatten the lip as the wing is sitting on the tyre still. Need at least -1 more camber to fit the tyre under.





                            before, yuck!

                              • uuuuuuuuuupdate.
                                so after lydden had a lil issure with my rim breaking. brake line popping. driveshaft cv exploding. arm bending. gosh!!





                                straightening and strengthened subframe



                                polybushed the arms with 90a hardness from strongflex.eu! best polybushes evar!!!!




                                all done


                                this did not make a pleasant drive home.




                                new rear bearings and shoes



                                also put new slam panel on, and no more washer jet holes! lol (rattle can paint!!)
                                looks soooo much nicer on the front with new wings, bonnet etc.



                                will get some photos from the Snetterton drift day on 21st!!
