Which mounts were they? ECP ones?
All that work on those wheels aswell! That is exactly why I don't drift my E30 as I just know I would wreck it. fiar play though with getting stuck in to repair it!

they were b15nac's on here so i have no idea where they came from, he wanted to try out mk2 escort ones and i had e34 525 ones so bought his old m5 ones were only a few weeks old,craigieeb wrote:Owch,
nice work
Where did you get the mounts?
BMW, GSF ECP etc ?
Where did you get them from? Sounds like they might not be E28/M5...B15NAC wrote:yea i used them on mine for about 2 weeks but mine has a standard e30 steering u/j set up so mine hit when cornering hard so i went for harder ones instead of changing my u/j i saw you wanted a set of e28 m5 mounts as you were using e34 ones so thought they would be fine with your set up! i was told that the e28 m5 mounts are the ones to have!
yeah the m5 mounts are normally fine, not your fault mateDuke137 wrote:Where did you get them from?

ive just picked up my new engine arm, went and had another nose around the car, everything looks to be okay, not 100% on the rear subframe though so may be changing that but the front subframe and steering rack all seem okay the front wheel hit head on... ish, and only dented but the back swung in side on hence it snapped :Lpauldeacs wrote:bound to of bent the wishbone i would of thought, ive clipped kerbs at much lower speeds in e30s and e36s and ended up with bent wishbones.
