    Serie 1 suspension transplant on an e30?

    Can I upgrade the e30 suspension using more modern design from an 135i.

    I know I'll have to fabricate new support...

    I'm also planning an S52 swap 3.4l, ported head, S50 intake, sunbelt race cam ...

    Any advice?

    Thank's

    Don’t waste your money on a port-n-polish. BMW has done a pretty good job on the ports, unless you plan on spending all your time above 5k RPM, porting a BMW head is a waste of time and money.
    …but if you must, look to VAC or Metric Mechanic.
