Rear Suspension Limits

[enildeR]

Someone mentioned that the rear suspension can't handle the power I'll be putting down with the engine swap I'm doing. This is the first time I've ever heard that the E30 trailing arm suspension is limited.

Is this the case? If so, can someone provide some links to threads/pages that help detail what can be done to upgrade it?

E30s wining at tracks all the time (and I don't mean heavily modded) seems to be counter to is argument. He made it sound as though so much power would twist the rear suspension or something.

must be talking about the frame not able to withstand high stress.
it's known that diff to frame area is prone to failure if too much torque/power is applied as well as the swaybar to frame area when using too big a swaybar.
some use stressbar between aft struts and triangulate it with diff's attach points as well as strut towers reinforcement and swaybar attachements reinforcement.

if that is what is talked about here...
