  • The compact arms are exactly the same as e30 4-lug arms. I used 97 mustang gt shocks. I would like to know the length of the camaro shocks to compare

      • Can you explain to me how those brackets add more camber?

        Based on this picture



        Are you just welding the brackets closer to the center? Does that just move the trailing arms more inward and thus more camber or what?

            the edges of the brackets i welded in hold camber/toe bolts in place, so as you turn them the bolt slides in the slot moving the trailing arm either up and down (camber) or front and back (toe)


            good update: since the other motor was just too far gone, and the money i would be putting into it would be way too much for the power it would end up with. so im selling it cheap

            then i spent a good part of today with this familiar sight in my rearview


            got it home and on the stand




            and this is the valance, got it fo free!


            a little bent up but nothing that cant be fixed


            I also picked up an e36 master cylinder to run with a massive booster delete, i have a friend running that setup and he said he really likes it.

            thats it. enjoy

            • I was thinking the massive booster delete for my compact but they won't sell me one now because I stupidly told them it would be on a street car.

                Seriously? What's the issue with that?

                Glad I got my setup second hand.

                    He claims he doesn't want to be liable or have his part be the cause of a car accident. I am just going to order through a friend now since you guys seem to know it is fine for street use=)

                      Now that the motor is here I'm gonna do work.

                      Gonna strip everything off the motor today after work, clean the damn thing and get my e34 pan mounted.

                      I also forgot to mention I picked up new spindles for $10 to use with my coilovers when I get them, and dropped off my front and rear subframes with a friend to get sandblasted. Should be getting stuff back next week and close to getting ready to test fit the wheels soon.

                      Meanwhile the bay is getting pretty close, I'm trying to have the core support bolt in this week and picking up more steel to finish everything, then its just filler and paint hopefully before mid February.

                      • lots of good work in here. (i always forget to check SW)

                        do you know if the e30m3 harness cover for the battery tray will still work with your removed/modified battery tray?

                        i got the passenger side of my bay tucked over the weekend. need to dial in my megasquirt and i can start in on the driver's side.
                        i despise my car, capital letters, and probably you.

                          yeah the harness cover should only come out to where the edge of the tray is cut, if not i can always modify it

                            im looking for sound deadening, but i dont want to pay the price for dynamat, ive heard of stuff you can get at home depot that works really well, but ive also heard that its the roofing maerial and will make the car smell like tar everytime it gets hot. anyone have some insight?

                            • I'm bored so i figured i would show you all the interior im getting.

                              Was talking to my friend stephen (white sr20 swapped e30 on rs's) at H2O about wanting to find a plaid interior, and he actually had one in his car, which i for some reason had never noticed. about a month after the show he said he would sell it, so i told him if he'd wait a couple months I'd come up to canada and buy it. well that time is coming soon, Im going up on the 15th to pick it up! im really excited.

                              heres what it looks like:
