Switching to coilovers

[june3o]

I wanna switch to coilovers but I only have a budget of 1300.. and I want GC coilover set up. I was wondering if I could get this set up for that price.. Any suggestions or advice would greatly help. This is like my first time doing this... Thanks! =)

I am a true believer in BC racing. I even race on them

Call them and see if you can order it without camber plates. That should get the price down enough and most people don't really need camber plates.

Agreed. You could pair them with Bilstein Sports and keep the stock upper mounts. It's be a pretty sweet $700 setup and brand new!

BC. Custom spring rates and valving, camber plates and rsms for 1k shipped. Can't beat that. Just put mine on last week and couldn't be happier!

Because.. they are not expensive enough.

These are BMWs. You need to be more arrogant.

OP, depending on your E30's duties, JOM may be a good option for you while saving a lot of caah for more important things... Or even more car money to play with.

JOM's are good if you're not full out insane on your E30. I have them on my daily driver and I like them. Low and stiff enough to take corners at nice speeds, but also not uncomfortable. I plan to get a set for my turbo coupe in the near future. :D

only downside about JOM is the shocks they come with.
do the GE group buy and get the advert. spring rate.

i have GC with 450f amd 750r and oh god is it intense for a DD. glad im young.
but in the twisties and corners...fun as hell and it stays planted!

Down side to JOMs:
Not a "sporty" valved shock.
Stuck with the ~350lbs/~500lbs rate.

This could or could not be a downside depending on use for the vehicle as mentioned above; if you're not insane about your E30.

With that said, GE group buy is where it's at. Not going to find a better deal.
