Janky E28 Syndrome

[bear]

No they are not.

Many e30, e34 and e32 parts can be used in front.

E.g. my e28 has e30 bilstein sports and cut e34 535i coils at front.

A coilover setup like in this thread: http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=69493 can be carried out to e28 with ease and no need to get extra parts, all e30 stuff will work, but springs could be too soft, stiffer springs are availble widely.


E34 and e32 struts are bolt on to rear, but they are little higher, so you need extra low ones.

E34 and e32 struts can be used in front also, but you must use e34 knuckle. Fronts are higher too, so the e34/e32 spirngs do not lower as much their numeric value is. Usin e34 or e32 struts also upgrades your brakes.

With e34/e32 struts you can't use e30 coilover kits, since o.d. is 55m instead of 51mm like in e30 and e28.

this shit is confusing, just cut your springs,ftw

No, its never the "right" way to lower a car. Ever....

Correct.

[bear]

and its dangerous and improper to stretch you sidewalls too

I don't know man, the bar has been set to high. You can't release a car until it's better than your last one. ;)

Not before bastardizing it with new "trends," but I'm sure it'll eventually meet it's fate in a similar fashion.
