السلام عليكم

It's been a long time since I've spoken, written, or typed any Arabic, so I must confess that's from Google Translate. I don't remember ever pronouncing the leading al...anyway!

I find it interesting how different parts availability leads to different tuning decisions. This looks like a really cool build!
I'm very interested in that differential.

Hey thanks man when you live in country like jordan you are forced to come up with unusual solutions like this. We have so many complications here its so retarded for example my car is originally 1600cc I can only increase the engine capacity by 30% so 2000cc i am putting a 1uz inside this if they gov saw this they would s##t themselves. So i went and bought myself a 1.6 carina engine so i can just get legalized plus i have to pay bribes to do that then rip that motor out and install 1uz. You guys living abroad are lucky you dont have to deal with this type of retardation. I am using bmw parts b/c thats what is most available here it should be fine i think.

Hi again got some more work done on the car

Here's the interior needs lots of work



The 1.6 crap motor just to get it road legal



Rear Subframe with diff( has e36 type holder still need to fab up bracket)









Rear coilovers are in but fenders need bracing



Steering Rack installed perfect fit





Hope fully this week it will be off to the body shop to get ready for paint and reinforced. Still hunting down some wheels cant find any decent 17's 4 lug. I still need to fit front control arms and modify them for extra lock will keep you guys posted.

Hi guys just finished mounting the rearsubframe its all bolted up and ready to go







I am hoping this thing will be on the ground and running ready for some serious body work in the next couple of days.

I have decided not to go with the link G4 + instead i purchased a vems ecu i got a really good price on i couldnt pass up.

Also my radiator and 30 liter tank just arrived plus all my gauges i will post some pics today

[burdickjp]

I really like the way that rear subframe went in. Looks good.

Does the E30 diff mount differently?

[slimshady]

Hello the e30 diff is mounted almost the same way except you will have a single bar on the diff holder going all the way through the trunk of the car. This is

actually a e30 diff in a e36 cradle gives better option for mounting much stiffer. If i get a chance i will take a picture of e30 diff in its cradle and show you what i

mean.

[slimshady]

Just picked up my gauges today need to fix up my dashboard and then arrange my gauges will post some pics as soon as i am finished with dash.

Its been a while since I posted anything here is a quick update Just finished fabing up my own version of wisefab here is what I came up with. By the way these are not the rims I will be using. Don't mind the **** welds on the motor mounts this is just temporary just to get the car legal. That motor is coming out.

Nice angle!

Such an interesting build. this thing looks scary fun.

Would love more info on the trans swap. My SC400 needs a stick lol. Also I love the E30/36 diff set-up, spool easy to work on.
