After seeing your car I want to swap a m30 in to a e30 for my next project.

Wh33lhop - thanks dude. In the next week or two.

Well, we'll see how newly re-valved bilstein sports will work once they arrive. Bilstein is shipping them out today. I am having GC modify my 51mm strut housings and they'll add e30m3 sway bar mounting points / reinforce the bottom part of the strut housing.

I gave Bilstein the weight of the car at each corner, the spring rates and also motion ratio although I don't know if they needed the latter. They have also modified the internal bump stops but I won't know about all the details until they arrive.

I recently upgraded to the cabrio front bar, from the stock early 318bar with new bushings/etc. Will the stock e30m3 front sway bar links work or do I need something else for it to work with the cabrio bar?

Picking up new gc plates and rsms next :)

I've been running the same front sway bar setup for about a year now and haven't had any problems.. Though I have been thinking about changing the bushing/ mount point.

Do you have center caps for the Hartge rims? Some people prefer them without - I like them with. I bought a set through Turner Motorsport about six months ago (who is now the Hartge rep in the US). Expensive ($200) but I thought worth it. Most people say they are NLA, but Hartge DE had them at that point.

I do have 4 new caps, but one of the one won't stay on the wheel. I am looking for another wheel so for now i'll just run them cap-less.
