              Read good things about them, but I'm slightly confused at the difference of a Full Setup vs the conversion setups others talk about or if they're the same thing.

                AFAIK, the conversion kit is the spring kit and adjusters. The full coilover setup has Koni single adjustable inserts bolted into the strut housings, Koni single adjustable rear shocks, front camber plates, Ground Control springs made by Eibach, Ground Control bump stops, ride height adjusters, and urethane rear upper shock mounts.

                  So one set you're spending around $1000 whereas the full setup is close to $2k+? Guess I'll start looking at my needs & the benefits between the two.

                      The full setup is $1500 and the conversion kit is $429.

                        I priced it around $1K, because you need your own shocks/struts I believe.

                          Don't forget about the camber plates while your there.

                          I have GC on the E21, love 'em.

                            This is true for the conversion kit. The full setup comes with them. One nice thing about GC is that you can get a bunch of different spring and damper rates, and if you call them they will help guide you if you don't already know what you want. I would also recommend corner balancing an adjustable setup.

                              Camber plates come with the full setup on the E30, but yeah, you're right about the conversion kit. It's definitely nice to be able to have the adjustments and worth the money.
