Also would like the struts to be coilovers, but have a 4 pot engine, so if i fitted the evo struts it would be to hard and raise the front up, so can i get them revalved or are they sealed units, also does the e30 top mount fit the evo strut as would like adjustable top mounts.

is there an easy link to bits needed for a 5 stud conversion?
Or is it as simple as getting new hubs and arms and bolting them on?

Haven't seen one.
Just to add to that the 6cyc 2.2 badged z3 I sorted the breaks on last week had the strengthened trailing arms.
