          I did. It was what directed me to this thread: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=E36+M3+springs+in+an+e30&l=1

          Most on the intratubes just speculate that it'd raise the rear end, so a disconnect with your statement and would be helpful to see it or know more... since dropping E30 rear ends is the easy way to pick up additional negative camber.

            I'd love to try this if there were a set of E36 springs that were a higher spring rate than the E30 H&R race springs. I want to raise my car up to get the suspension geometry correct, but I also want more spring rate. Right now I have the E30 H&rs and the car is a little soft, and sits too low. I'd like to bring it up about half to 3/4 of an inch. I've been looking all over google for info on the E36 to e30 spring swap but haven't found much useful info.
