UPDATE#9
Hey guys so i have some bad news, the e36 backyard project has come to an unfortunate conclusion and will be no more...I know i have been inactive for a long while but i had reached a plato with the car and it became my daily, so no work or mods could be done and about 2 months back i wrote the car off.
SO I'll be rebuilding and entirely new e36 body and ill sending it all the way, pulling out all the stops with the new car!

Oh no, what happened? Sorry to see your hard work lying there in a pile on the floor, gut wrenching. So long as you are OK and did not sustain any injuries, cars can be rebuilt. Sounds like you have the right attitude to see it through!

Yeah dont sweat , rear wheel drive, 6 cylinders and youthful exhuberance usually dont go too well together, but i bet you have a ton more insight into how rear wheel drive cars behave now. Wish you well on your rebuilding efforts.

Damn man, starting reading this build thread today and garnered so much respect for your attitude and hard work - very sorry to see this but hope you are okay. Looking forward to seeing what's next on the new build.

I actually came off it pretty lightly just a few scratches, car rolled twice and landed on its side. Now i know how laundry in a tumble dryer feels 😆

Thx man! Yeah, high power rwd cars, Overconfidence and open diffs dont mix to well😅 im just glad i was on a very quiet road and no-one else was involved or got hurt. Definitely walked away with more respect for my bmw and being really thankful that i walked away unscathed. I actually want to go for advance driving and drifting courses. My new car will be much more track oriented than street and i will be making more power out of the engine.
