After a crazy busy summer full of racing things of the non-e30 sort, ready to get back to it on this car. MCS converted our shocks to coilover rear and I'm currently working on finding/buying a bunch of different pairs of springs and some spring rubbers for tuning. Baseline setup is going to be 700/450 but we also have a set of 800/600. I'm hoping to experiment with big spring/soft bar and soft spring/big bar setup and also some fine tuning on spring splits, which is really easy with the spring rubbers. The upper end of our range is probably going to be way too stiff for the 200TW tires, but we'll see.

I'll update with more pics of the install, but still waiting on springs. If you can't tell from the pics, shocks are flipped with this setup, clevis mount goes to the stock shock mount location and the eyelet/spherical rod end mounts to the e30 trailing arm. Really nice stuff, can't wait to run it after the conversion
