Dropped on races too low in rear

[bastianshaw]

What are my options? I was thinking of running these in addition to the stock pads :http://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-42...pads-pair.aspx

I dont want to drop the front anymore so no drophats or cutting front springs just need to raise the rear

[nrubenstein]

Those pads work great.

Edit: You can use them top and bottom if you need an extra lift.

you can also sell your E30 H&R Race rear springs and get E36 H&R Race rear springs from someone on bimmerforums. So many E36 dudes selling their races and switching to coilovers.
I tried E36 H&R Races in the rear on an E30, handling was awesome. Drop was maybe 1 inch.
You will make money if going this route. There are members looking for E30 rears here.
Or you can just get those thick pads from turner...

Just to clarify: these will work on an e30? Their site doesn't mention God's chariot. However, since people use e35 springs I imagine you are right and the spring pads will work just fine.

[Blackout]

Yes, they work on E30.

Any other ideas?

The fronts settled just a little so i took out 1 pair of my spacers. I now have 4 spacers i don't need (i made 8 and am using 4) if you want them,i dont want a lot of money for them.

LJ851 You got PM!

just FYI guys the Races AND the IE3s drop the rear too much IMO, the spring rates are killer though :-)

[einstein57]

You must have really tall speed bumps or something. I was running a 3" exhaust with no spring pads and they still felt too tall. Did not start scrapping the exhaust till i installed e90 drop hats.



Before With H&R races


After with coils 8)

heres mine it looks way lower than the one

[einstein57]

Probably cause mine is an early model with higher arches. Did you remove your trunk tar? That would probably even it out.

Trunk tar removed and that pic was w the tank almost emPty :-/

dropped my 318is on races. Tad too high in the front(not too low in the rear :-p)

I plan to correct with camber plates(ie's sit a little lower), an S50, and possibly drop hats :-D
