will the rear subframe from any other e36 bolt up
in place of the e30 style part in the Ti, or is modifacation required?

Not going to happen, the TI uses the E30 rear subframe.

so the rear of the car is that different? i know they use the e30 part, will my e36 part bolt in.

What part are you speaking of?

the rear subframe; trailing arms, brakes, differential the entire subframe. swap heard of anyone that has done it or attempted doing it?

I bet someone in this world has done it but it's far from feasible and not even worth it. If you are planning on building a track car or engine swap, you can put a big case LSD from E28/E30's in the rear, pick up some MZ3 rear trailing arms so you can run the larger brakes and there you have it.

yea i have a S50us cant remember witch trany (its out of a 1997 M3) as well as the Motorsport rear subframe from my totald frankenbimmer and im trying 2 decide witch e36 chassis i want coupe or if this is possible ti

You will need a `95 TI for the `95 S50 engine (both OBDI) while you can choose from the `92-`95 E36 sedan/coupes for the swap. Obviously the TI would be the quickest, most fun and more unique. Also it's nice to not have to worry about subframe tearing as I have yet to hear about it in TI's.

invest in a set of Ground Control Street RSMs, $83.00 from Team No Money's Ebay Store.(Used to run a silver/black Ti)

Either M Coupe or M Roadster subframes will bolt in if you need mega-strength. Other Z3's will bolt in as well, but ti subframes have been known to withstand a lot more punishment than other e36s and still be fine.

it's 7 bolts

for a m42/44 it's pointless other than for sheits and giggles

for a small six, 325 or 323 swap(or 320) i would spend the money else where, one small bonus of the z3(non-m) rear is slightly better brakes..but unless your pushing tin, put the money else where ie front brakes, with e36 325/328 brakes or e46 brakes.

yeah even working at treehouse, freakin home of the e30 m50 swap, even the owner Jon says thats pretty much a myth even under larger horsepower setups. wouldnt worry about it. you could replace those bushings. but thats for peace of mind really.

well, good to know about the Z3 rear having better brakes. My subframe is bent (both rear wheels toe in, the driver's side worse than the passenger) so I will look for that.

so the rear of the car is that different? i know they use the e30 part, will my e36 part bolt in.

Just look at the dash, which is almost a 1-on-1 copy of the e30 dash.

Better yet (worse) BMW used e30 leftovers for it.
