    Ireland Engineering Coilover kit?



    So does anyone have these? How long have they been out? If for a long time, why haven't i known about them (like are they pieces of crap)?

    also if you have researched your coils, what do you think about megan racing coilovers?

      Here's a working link:


      Looks like Eibach springs and Bilstein Sports. It's going to be the same basic idea as GC or GE coilovers. It's all personal preference which spring rates, struts/shocks, and camber plates you run.

          Woops, my bad, thank you! What is the cheapest route for a car that will be daily'd and used for track and auto-x?

            That depends on what combination of parts you choose to use and if you can weld or not. Struts you have your choice of "Bilstein Sports, Koni Sport (single adjustable), Koni Race (single/double adjustable), and many others".

            Keep in mind there is no golden "do everything well" setup. It just depends on what you want in terms of personal preferences and budget.

              I'm guessing the single adjustable means the damping adjustment? right? Totally wrong?

              The thing is next semester (I'm a senior in highschool) I will have access to a whole metals shop with welding and cutting tools. I was thinking of buying another set of strut assemblies from a junker E30 so I have a set for winter and summer.

              Oh and my life is a budget and I'm ballin on it pretty hard haha, I work at a tire shop.
