    BRAND NEW GC 5-lug Coilover kit w/e36 M3 Brakes/ti rear/ AKG/ MORE

    SOLD SOLD SOLD
    SOLD SOLD SOLD
    SOLD SOLD SOLD


    READ THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION, THIS IS EVERYTHING YOU'LL NEED TO 5-LUG SWAP YOUR E30 WITH E36 M3/TI BRAKES! ALL YOU'LL NEED TO ADD IS WHEELS

    The Coilovers were made to order by Jay at Ground Control, with specific camber plate range and spring rates (550F/700R) to use on a 24V swapped e30.

    They are essentially e36 M3 housings which have been shortened to maintain correct geometry on the e30. The housings (front) have all of the brackets to utilize the e36 M3 hubs/rotors/calipers as well as the tabs to accommodate sway bar end links.
    The fronts include the Ground Control (adjustable) Camber plates which were built with the kit. the rears include the GC RSM's that were built with the kit.
    All 4 coilovers are koni adjustable shocks/struts and are sleeved for heigt adjustment. The rears include spring perches (threaded for height adjustment) and spring pads, the hubs will accept 318ti rotors/calipers/pads.

    The whole package would include:
    -GC 5-lug coilovers (everything listed above; incl. springs, mounts, camber plates)
    -Both e36 m3 front knuckles/hubs
    -Both front calipers from e36 M3 (freshly blasted and powdercoated gloss black; all hardware and pistons were removed for powdercoating and the piston seals, bleeder nipples, and all rubber bits were replaced/rebuilt)
    -Brand new OEM BMW pads/sensor (e36 M3)
    -Used Cross-drilled Zimmerman Front rotors
    -e36 M3 Control arms w/treehouse racing eyeball mounts (needed to clear 24V longtube headers)
    -e36 318ti Rear Calipers (freshly blasted and powdercoated gloss black; all hardware and pistons were removed for powdercoating and the piston seals, bleeder nipples, and all rubber bits were replaced/rebuilt)
    -Brand New BMW OEM e36 318ti Rear Rotors
    -Brand New BMW OEM e36 318ti Pads/Sensor
    -e36 318ti Rear Subframe with Brand New AKG Delrin bushings installed
    -e36 318ti Rear Trailing Arms w/ Brand New AKG Delrin Eccentric bushings for adj. rear camber (with M Coupe style cross-bar reinforcements and reinforced swaybar mounting tabs professionally welded in)
    -e30 325is e-brake cables, Brand new

    I also have all of the dampening adjustment knobs and coil adjustment wrenches from ground control and the eccentric adjustment wrench from AKG (for the RTABs) which will go with the kit.

    Coilover setup:


    e36 M3 Front Calipers (318ti rears look the same... but smaller):




    New Guide-bushings, bleeder nipples, anti-rattle clips, etc:


    I'm looking to get $2,500 for everything listed above, and I'm open to offers... this is much, much less than I paid for everything new (not to mention installing bushings and rebuilding/powdercoating calipers).

    With the exception of the front rotors, none of the parts have ANY miles on them, as I only mocked them up for fitment and to have the car rolling.


    I am sorry to have to get rid of this kit, as it would make an e30 handle/brake like no other... but I need the $$ for flight hours and acro-training more than I need them sitting on a non-running project car :D

    That being said, this is not a 'fire sale' and I'm in no hurry to get rid of this stuff on a lowball offer. Also, feel free to email me with any questions or for specific pictures, but please keep any negative opinions of 5-lug e30's or this setup out of my FS thread!

    Thanks!

          Also interested in the sways if none of the above get them.
          As a side note do you use e36 M3 or e30 M3 endlinks with the 5 lug setup?

              Dude, I bought new UUC sways awhile ago and it wound up being about $500 altogether. $200 is RETARDED cheap.

                  Sorry that I've taken so long to check on the thread!

                  Sways and M3 rack are SOLD

                  To answer a few questions:
                  -I was told that the e36 M3 swaybar endlinks are preferred on this setup.

                  -I'm not looking to split up the 5lug stuff right now, I'd like to move it all as a package deal.

                  -The price above is NOT a 'shipped price' any of you that have gotten under an e30 know how non-shipping-friendly the rear subframe and trailing arms are, not to mention the number of parts involved in this setup.
                  I will consider shipping, but the buyer will be responsible for shipping costs.




                  Feel free to email me offers!!

                          Nice dude. Very nice. John is a stand up guy so I would have no problem purchasing from him and actually passed on this setup cause 4 lugs FTW.

                            Incredible deal!
                            If I didn't buy coilovers last year, I'd jump on this immediately.

                              I know that it seems expensive to some, but try and replicate this entire kit and it would be $$$$$ I really should get more but that's life.
