        Not sure why you would pay $65 for the condor speed shops when you can get AKG's for $60 which are a lot nicer and have more then $6 of materials in them like the condors.

          NEW: Complete E30 Suspension Rebuild Kit

          Bigger picture

          here at Blunttech.

          1. Is it good price for the kit?
          2. Will I need to get any bushings pressed in/out?
          3. Anything else I should replace?

          The diff bushing is fine, struts and springs have been replaced couple of months ago.
          I checked, but does the website tell you what brand all the components are? Price seems good, just curious who makes all the parts.. BMW, Lemforder, etc?

                              <$100. I'll be mounting snow tires on them, so they really don't need to look great, as long as they're round.

                                Can you do $100? I'm located in Portland though.
