    GC kit is $429, made in America minus the eibachs, you get great support from them, they custom fit you with the proper spring rate for your car. Oh.....and they have a lifetime warranty.

    Something to think about.

    Don't you need adjustable shocks as well?

    I know I would love to build something like yours. Thankfully I don't even have that option because I don't have much money and am on a tight budget, so for now it's cheap stuff, but you never know down the road.

They'll set you up to get your car really low, but I'd contact them first to tell them your plan so they can work with you to make sure you're getting what you need. I wouldn't do any cheaper than BC. It's not easy getting these cars low from what I can tell.

    That sounds awesome and I would love to stop in sometime. I'm new to this scene so I really don't know anybody around here into e30s and could use a little guidance, especially when it comes to where to get parts. I know all about saying to not spend a lot, I said the same about my jeep I have now and that didn't turn out well at all.

    If you know anybody in the area selling an early model front air dam let me know because I'm currently looking for one.

    Thanks, and I honestly have no idea. The original plan was to just get cheap coilovers, lower it as much as possible, fix the dents, do cheap and unique mods, and drive it as a DD to save gas. The more I look around on here the more I want to change those plans and actually put money into her.
