    I have made rear arms before, and unfortunately by the time they were strong enough (e30 race car), they weighed the same as stock arms.

    We are working on some pretty cool stuff in that department however, but it probably won't be a DIY.

    As far as front arms go, I have a few designs, but in reality, the stock M3 aluminum arm is pretty hard to beat, the problem is the lollipop bushing. I have some ideas in the pipeline for that.

      Ground Control

      Just ordered the GC Street Touring Kit. I have to say I am very impressed with Marks knowledge and great customer service. Walked me through everything and set me up with a coilover set that was custom for my plans for the vehicle. I cant wait to see the product! And even more cant wait to install it! Thanks Mark

        Another +1 for GC. Excellent service, fast shipping (well maybe that's because I'm 2 hours from them), extremely helpful....

          Mark sent me some bump stops I needed for free the other day. This was a surprise in the package. I'm pretty sure it's machined titanium, and is really fucking awesome:

            dont either of you think it's funny that you're both the only ones to ever write something about ground control? ..you'll both save the mods a lot of time by searching before you post about a member or company.

              Put my feedback in the wrong section so I will try this again..

              Ordered a Street Touring Coilover set from Mark at GC. He was very helpful, informative, and provided excellent service. I recently finished the install of the coilovers on a vert and have to say the quality is top notch. The car drives great and looks amazing. I would definitely recommend them to anyone!

                Ordered my 3rd set of coils from them. I've dealt with mark before and donovan this time. Nothing short of what I expected, they always go out of their way to help you out. I became a customer for life since my first transaction with them. I have and always will continue to recommend them.

                  anyone have any trouble with shipping? i noticed as i was going to order some, there was a notice saying not to proceed with checkout if your ship to/bill to addresses are different. because they wont ship it for security purposes. so how the heck do i order GC coils if they wont ship them to me?

                  i sent them an email a few weeks ago, and never got a reply.

                    Try calling, mark or donovan will probably answer, they are more than helpful and accomodating.

                      This. Call Mark. He'll set you straight.

                        Called and spoke with Donovan about ordering a set of coilovers for my car. Told him my background and what I was looking for out of my car. After a quick but thorough interview, he had an invoice showing me exactly what the setup would be.

                        I am very anxious to see how they perform, never driven an e30 on GC's. But I have never heard anything other than fantastic.

                        I have the Street Touring complete kit with 440F/650R spring rates. Housings powdercoated black. I will post pictures of the product and a brief review once installed. Should be here March 4th.

                              Showed up last night. Lots of bubble wrap and paper to ensure no damage is done to the parts. Look to be of great quality and craftsmanship. Waiting to do the install now.
