The R3V sponsor, Ground Control, has several different ones for the e30 that will work with generic coilovers.

Good review. I was planning on getting a set of my late model DD at some point.

I have it on a sedan too. But now that I think about it, the 'wheel hop' I got could have been the product of having 500 front springs and 300 rear. So I'm definitely going to be buying some new springs for the rear and report back after some track days.

The car really stayed flat through the corners and wasn't bouncy at all. The only problem is there was a bit of wheel hop which I am assuming is due to the shocks not being stiff enough. Also, the rear didn't seem as it should be when you consider how stiff the fronts are. So some time down the road I MIGHT replace the shocks and get new rear springs.
However, since the point of these coils are more for going low and better, not best, performance. These are great, especially for the money. If you are buying these solely for track performance, there are better options out there. If you want to drive your daily driver to the track and have a comfortable ride home, these are awesome.

Yup.
Keep in mind you would normally use your stock upper strut mounts. I put camber plates on mine.
