        A: It's "Sure" and B: how about in the "Suspension" section, mkay?

          Is that the Ground Control E30/E36 hybrid setup?

          If so, I think if you pair it with 96+ E36 M3 control arms, it's supposed to be a pretty sweet suspension.

            Doesn't look like it FredK, says something about THR and using Bilsteins, not Koni's.

            But on GC's kit you need to use 96+ Control Arms in combination with offset CABs.

              Hm, they look like they have GC coilover ride height adjusters, rear height adjusters, and other GC-esque stuff. Good eye on the Bilstein stuff.

              Now, it says it comes with the stock E36 knuckles, which are fine, but I think have 95 M3 geometry, so the wheel might be pushed back a little bit, even if you use late M3 control arms and offset CABs.

                Thinking it looks like something Jordan might have been cooking up before he went with AST's.

                  it's the thr kit using GC coilover components and bilsteins instead of konis.

                    That has Konis on it though. Let's all respond to his other thread in the proper section though...

                      right. it's a mix and match of their kit using bilsteins instead of konis.
