    WTB: Bilsteins, etc. for E30

    I'm looking for a set of Bilsteins for a '89 325i. If you have any IE stage 3 springs or comparable springs, let me know, also interesting if you've got any other suspension bits that you want to upgrade... Just throw it out there, and I'll handle it on a case by case basis.

    Shocks are what I'm looking for, extras are considered, just wanted to reiterate that.

    I have a front pair of Bilstein M-technic shocks in the garage if you are interested.

      Are those anything like the monotube HDs or Sports?

        yes, they look just like sports, but the inner tube itself is a larger diameter then the sports. I used them with my racing dynamic springs and they did great, only pulled them when I went to a coilover suspension. I should have the rears around somewhere also. I'll do $175 shipped for all 4

          Pics to hiltebeitel@tamu.edu, if you could, please.

          Are you selling those springs, too? ;)

              That's cool. Did you ever auto-x or track the car with this setup on? if so, how was it?

                no I've only used the coilovers at the track. I drove many mountain roads with them and loved it.

                  Cool, I grew up in SW VA, near Bristol, on the Appalachians. Good roads!


                  Does anyone else have any shocks, preferably like IE3?

                      Ok, so these will fit my car, I don't know a whole lot about the M-technic stuff. :(

                          yep the needed gland nuts are included. I had them mounted shortly on my 88 325is, then for about a few months on my 85 325e.
