M3 springs & Bilstein Tourings are in!!!

[nando]

the problem is jordan, not all springs are short enough in the front to not need a spring compressor for assembly.

that said, even with a spring compressor it's still pie on any E30.. it's really not that bad on my car, a hub puller takes the driveshafts out in a matter of minutes, and I need to use a 3 foot cheater pipe to go on my breaker bar for those front hubs :)

you guys have easy as pie front struts.. try having a drivehshaft to pop out of yours, with a 32mm hub nut torqued to 240ft-lb that has to be removed first!

the car looks good, enough drop to get rid of fender gap but still keep a nice ride and be able to drive on shitty roads.

And we dont use up most of the power due to tranmistion loss!

what's your point? a 5 speed ix is barely slower than a 325i.. neither of which are especially fast. :roll:

An auto 325iX sure is though ;)

[nando]

hey now, don't forget your roots ;)

[demlotcrew]

its still slower tho, no real point sorry.

How much would you say your car dropped after putting in the M3 springs? (Rear and Front please)

[parkerbink]

3/4 inch Look at my sig pic & you will see the change

if u dont mind me asking, how much did the m3 springs cost? and were they used?

[parkerbink]

Nope, don't mind at all. They were new, 105.00 delivered from eBay. I got really lucky. They are exactly what I wanted, a little lower, a lot firmer. I can't go any lower because there are speedbumps & badly (if not at all) paved roads here.

You can usually get M3 springs on eBay or around here for about $100 shipped

For new ones? Well I guess if I had to overpay 5.00 is ok to overpay! lol
