    E36 m3 rear subframe

    So kind of a forced induction thread because my car is boosted. But I have a 325is but I wanna put a rear subframe from am m in.lol just for the bigger axles and diff. What do they go for usually? So IF I find one I don't get raped on price. Thanks!

    IDK but I have a 3.23 lsd out of a 99 m3 with front bolt MOD. I'll sell it for 275$ plus shipping

    I've got an M3 subframe and 3.15 rear diff available right now, since I am doing a 210mm swap.

    You need trailing arms, axles, brakes and diff from m3. Not the subframe.

    Diffs are usually around $300
    Trailing arms are usually around $125-150 each
    I found some nice rebuilt and painted calipers for $50 for the set
    Axles are usually $100 or so each

    Yeah I mean I want to get a whole complete rear from an m. Trailing arms, brakes, diff, everything. And how much bigger exactly are m axles vs non m axles? Basically be using it for the season and sending the axles in as cores this winter for dss axles.

    Just get Butters to rebuild the axles. He does a good job with new HD joints and a bunch of people are using them for street, track and drag racing. Cost less than DSS.

    Do we know if butters can source the axle parts? I smashed the outer cv joint on one of mine and broke the little cage that the ball bearings ride in.
