Xmas shopping??

[Zalmoxis]

Hey guys, i recently bought an e30 325i stick that I'm planning on keeping for a while .. I just made it run kinda decent changed the obvious and now it's the part that pisses off everybody on forums ! What suspension should I buy for it ! I'm planning on a weekend warrior .. Drift slalom track autox and whatever my budget will allow ! I have a few tracks close to where I live and I'm bored as fuck ! I have about 1-1.5k to spend for suspension.. But I really have no idea about what rates the shocks should have etc etc chamber toe (camel toe) negative what ?!? I drive the car in the city maybe 20miles a week .. It's a publix car :) it's not my DD ! I'd like to keep it street friendly I don't mind stiff rides and don't care much about comfort ! I have a few cars before and I'm not new to the BMW family ! Please help me build a nice toy !

Two words about suspension you need to know: Ground Control. Call them and they will advise you as to spring rates and such:up:

Say no to ebay spec setups.

I was thinking to refresh the steering too .. Bushings look good but I feel their not ! Now if I go coils should I do a 5lug conversion ?! I already bought rims and new tiers .. If I go shocks and springs I could afford to buy some lemforder bushing kit ?! Idk idk :( I'm torn :))) and I have no idea what I'm suppose to do or buy

Ps -fuck ebay .. I mean most of it .. Not all

I strongly suggest H & R Race pair with Koni Adjustables. It'll save you some money for steering refresh and solid poly bushings.

This + preventive maintenance is the best thing ever.

But what kit from them they are asking for some parameters that I don't know nothing about .. A call is the solution I'm guessing ! Wifey said " go get ur fuxing suspension" now i have to spend the money since they are burning a whole in my pocket :))) where am I look up a koni adjustable kit for a fair price ! Idk much about suspension .. My main are engines and trannys(not those kind u sick $&@) should I wait maybe I catch a deal with the holidays around the corner !! I'd like to take it drifting sooo bad !

You need to stop and think before spending. Its going to save you money in the long run. Determine what youll use the car for and talk to someone who knows these cars .Solid everything may be great but it may be overkill for what you want. You only want to do this once. Id be glad to talk to you if you want to call.

Listen to this man.

i can see this car getting wrecked.

[E30Kills]

I certainly do not claim to be an expert but I would work on getting the car running better than "kinda decent" that way it
doesn't blow up on you at AutoX events when you are driving it hard. Just my opinion though

:))) you're cute :)) I hope this will give me a good start ! I'm getting some new engine mounts and tranny mounts and a short shifter to rebuild te old one !!

[Zalmoxis]
