    Feeler: E30 M3 5-lug--

    I'm considering selling my E30 M3 5-lug suspension in favor of an E36/E46 suspension setup. As soon as I track down a set of Z3 M coupe/convertible trailing arms with brakes the suspension will be 100% for sale.

    Front setup-

    I welded in the front swaybar link reinforcements and repaired the sheet metal where one was torn. I 'rebuilt' the front brake calipers. The pistons were fine, so I cleaned up the fluid surfaces and resealed the calipers with new ATE seals. The calipers were externally media blasted and primed/painted with high-temp black paint. The pads are near new Mintex track pads if I remember right. The rotors are new Zimmerman with less than 30 feet on them. The suspension may or may not include the new Lemforder swaybar end-links. Might include the Turner stainless brake lines as well.. Those are brand new as well.

    Rear suspension-

    No modifications have been made to the trailing arms yet. I have good pads and cross-drilled rotors that have 90% of their life remaining. I have the weld-in swaybar link reinforcements and could install those for the right buyer. The current OEM replacement trailing arm bushings are in good shape and have low miles on them. The rear suspension is from DeM3n's old car that was hit by a girl on a cell phone.

    This suspension will most likely be sold with the Koni adjustable shocks/struts and Vogtland springs that I've been running for the past few years. I also have a complete set of Powerflex bushings for the rear and have a modified/adjustable rear subframe if someone wants it all. The rear subframe has the Ireland Engineering adjusters and eccentric bolts.

    I would like $1,500 for the suspension and brakes without shocks, struts, or springs.

    I'd like $1,800 for the suspension with the Koni's and Vogtlands.

    The bushings and rear subframe crossmember would be additional. I'd like $350 if the rear subframe crossmember and Powerflex bushings are included in the sale-- that includes the installation of those bushings, I can take care of that.

    I'm not opposed to trades, especially if you have the Z3 M trailing arms I need or a 262 Dogleg gearbox, among other things.

    In addition to all of that, I have a set of 5x120 15x7 et13 Ronal Turbo's and a set of the E38 16x8 Style 5's that I could sell along with the suspension to make for a more complete setup.

    Here are a couple of pictures of the front suspension--








    Cheers,

      ^^Thanks. I think the price should be alright considering the little nic-nac cost of the new pieces involved. The E30 M3 5-lug isn't getting any more common.. ha.
