      It's an e30, it'll fit.

      Post your location, I'm sure there's "performance" shops near you. Be forwarned, GC's ordering process & customer support blows donkey cock.

      What exactly is your goal with this "track car"?

        Santa Barbara CA I am looking to do a entry levle track car. Since I am a begginer. However it will be the car I am going to be sticking with. So I wanna do things right first time around. Instead of going back and doing everything twice. Mostly tracks like Streets of Willow and Buttonwillow. Some AUTO CROSS as well. Thank You for your intrest in my setup.

          GC is a tried and true, relatively inexpensive setup. That's the route I would [did] take.

              where would be a good place to shop for them online where the people would know what the hell I am talking about. As in spring rates and adjustable shocks and other customization realted things.

                I suggest you do a lot of research - at least read every thread regarding GC setups. I would definitely not go off of retailer suggestions alone.

                You can go directly through GC - if you get ahold of Dale, he is a pretty knowledgeable BMW guy.

                  what about flying brick performance I got a hold of Daniel on there. I believe I have heard his name in a couple GC threads.

                      Pete at TC Kline is awesome as well. I got my Koni dampers through them and my springs and coil over setup through Ground Control.

                        In the meantime, avidly look for used bilstein sports. Once revalved, they are the best dampers in the "reasonable" price range.

                              Lol, so let me get this straight, pete at tckline recommends their setup over the competition. Wow - who would have thought?

                              I see no reason paying more money for a setup that doesn't have any advantage over GC.
