subaru rear suspension

[ollielsd]

any one ever done it? i quite fancy the challenge and after an inital look they're are similar enough to warrant a further look.

parts and or fabrication wont be an issue, just wondered if anyones look into it - or even used the diff??

WHY?

[ollielsd]

just i think the e30 rear suspension is basically flawed and the impreza rear end wud be a great starting point for an (almost) infinitely adjustable rear end for track use

[Brianmoooore]

Agreed that the E30 rear suspension is not the worlds most sophisticated, but you said the Subaru suspension was similar(ly flawed).

yeh lol, i meant similar in terms of mounting etc, not design. it uses a cross beam with two mounts similar to the BM and a rear mounting for dif, sus links etc, im sure the suby sus cud be mated to the BM mounting points
