    Cheers man, lookn like its gonna be a whole load of hardship getting a decent diff and subframe set up. Diffs are so hard to come by and expensive too. Anyone that has any input on what'd be a good set up feel free to fill me in

    Yeah there's tonnes of info/parts on E30's & E36's but not many people have moved on to the 46's yet so not all that much info available. Google is your new best friend

    So got at this for a couple of hours today. Ripped the most of the interior out aside from the dash. There is some pile of stuff, the weight that's gone outve it already is unreal and haven't touched the sound proofing yet.

    Anyone good advice on getting it off? It's really sticky even tar like stuff. Can ya spray somethin on it to freeze it and make it come off in lumps instead of tiny pieces?

    Few pics, clean enough shell with a few scrapes and dents, nothin special but I'm lookin forward to makin it look mean!









    Hope to get engine and box out next week and get I fully stripped ready for the cage.

    Only seen this thread now, its going to be class when done!
    Fair play for going the turbo route! Definitely not a cheap or easy job to do right


    If you need any help with an E46 drift build, look to the lads over competing in the King of Europe and people drifting in the Eastern Europe block as E46s have become very popular there.
