What the heck are these? lol?
Don't so this.

Ground Control with shortened housings is going to be your best bet really.

You don't recommend them?

Eventually this will be, but as for now I'm tight on money and I've got new rims and low profile tires I'd like to throw onto the car. So I don't want the car to look awkward on stock height.

Then why spend the money on two suspension? Wait and save the money for the good stuff. Roll on the sock rims and you will blend in just fine. Most expensive things to improve are engine and suspension. I know rims are costly too, but you can get a really great set for under 500 all day.

My 2 cents is wait and get the GC setup. You will be happy you did.

Well I'd be selling it after I've saved enough money to purchase the GC ones. I've just got no space for these set of wheels and they are in my bedroom and I've got to get them out!

No, I do not recommend what ever those springs are that he linked you to lol.

And do this. I'm doing this soon, just trying to build the pieces together.
It isn't expensive and just takes some fabbing. (He isn't talking about the $1000+ kit either).

I'll gladly take the setup that you currently have then. haha

Again that is no excuse, I have as listed in my room: trunk lid, m50/c101 harness, Mishimoto radiator, three complete e30 grills(2us 1euro) 7 clusters, three or four boxes of relays, nuts, bolts and random e30 stuff. 4 months ago I had 17" rims and 15" BBS weaves 4x100 in my room too. Sold the BBS and threw the others in te shed.

That does not count both of my sheds and my Uncles garage.

Save and buy the GC and use the money you would have spent on some e30tech rear camber kit and aGC front camber plates.:twisted:

Springs are sold to a friend as soon as they come off the car, sorry lol.
And I'm using my Bilstein sports on the coils.

I don't want you to think that is all you should get. It's just for the money that you will spend on springs and the lowering shocks(you will have to buy them no matter what) you could buy the GC and get a much better suspension.

When I was doing my first E30 suspension I found TMS has the best price for their H&R kits. Here is the link and as you can see it is not that much more for the GC setup. And after personally driving both I went with the GC. The only way you can out do the GC setup up is buying 1,800 kits.

The FK's are just as low as a non-shortened GC setup, cost less and come with shocks.

Why is this still a debate?

[sticksdaman]

Ive never actually seen the 75/50 kit on an e30. Do you have any pics?

Do they have something similar but like a 60/40 drop instead? I just don't want the back so high like that. More of something that is level all around.

That pretty much what I was looking for especially around that price. But is there a way to lower it the same all around. Perhaps a 60/40 drop? Is that what your running with the hats?
