WTT: E30 for E36

[Suspence]

wait are we talking about the short shifter or the lsd?


I would say do full coilovers first. Go with Ground Control because its a legit setup and you can set your spring rate on a proven setup. It would be a great addition to your e30 as is.

you could either buy the kit already put together or pieced together with the GC conversion kit.

i say do the 3.73, short shifter, and coilovers

i think after that your e30 will be setup for power...suspension/rebuild/seats/bars etc. what else is left but brake upgrade with more power?

Yeah I was coil overs terribly, just have to save the dough.

I have nice rotors, just need new pads... But I wouldn't mind a nice BBK haha, and as far as shifter goes I just need something shorter. I'll be buying it either this weekend or next week some time. I want to find a brand new one online with all the bushings I need. If anyone knows of something please link it here.

REV is awesome by the way, you guys have helped me so much with parts and learning how my car works. If I didn't have REV I wouldn't know wtf half the crap on my car is. I'm talking to einstien about my build, so we will see where that goes.

Yeah I know I should waittt haha I want it nOW!



I want to replace a lot, but something that will be able to take daily driving with out too many problems. Maybe around 300hp, and as simple as it gets. I don't want anything nuts. Should I do turbo build first or coil overs first?

Post up an acceleration video. Perhaps your car accelerates just fine but the long gears make it seem slower than it is.
4.10 is too short in 1st gear for my liking, freeway cruising was just fine. It depends on your tire circumference though. If you are running a larger circumference than stock then a 4.10 would work out to something between 3.73 and 4.10 which I feel is perfect (still searching for that medium case S3.91)

Eh. Depends on your definition. although I would really dig a 3.73, I do like my 4.10 LSD. It is fun coming out of corners and when I want to throw the ass end out every once in a while, this is the diff to do it with.

It all depends on purpose and tolerance I guess. I daily my car and fwy 90% of the time and 3.73 often feels too strung out.

Hit up nigel for a package deal. I'm helping him run a prototype of his coilover setup that's going to be dialed in very soon.

4.10 is too much for an m20.

Do turbo bro. I'm at 12 psi and I love it. I was like you before. Then I got boost and I want more ;)

[Suspence]

your car's already so much more dope. just do what everyone said to do and you'll be set. can't afford turbo now? then wait cause it'd just be fucking worth it and all the people with e36s will be jelly and drooly.

Yeah I know I should waittt haha I want it nOW!

all depends on what you want to replace.. i can get you the parts but some people try and replace everything possible down there while others just do the main worn linkage parts...

i would recommend the z4 2.5 or the e36 m3 (shorter than the 2.5 but notchy)

guess it depends how short you wont it on your daily

I loved my 1989 325is any day over my e36 m3

I sense deja vu. Dinanm3?




I feel like the z4 ones are too short.

Can someone recommend me a nice short shift kit please with everything that I need?

Thanks

This is why I want an e36.

[Dj Buttchug]

i am disappoint...

e30's are slow. so are e36 m3's. why not turbo or swap or something?

^this. an excellent e30 platform shall not be traded for an e36. as stated before. e36 m3s are slow.
