Hello all,

I'm hoping somebody can help me here... I'm currently in the process of converting the rear drums on my 320i to discs using salvaged 325i parts. Whilst I'm doing the swap I was hoping to to change the shocks to Bilstein B4 items and change the springs; possibly to those of the Eibach variety. Are there any differences between 320i and 325i in terms of aftermarket options? The plot also thickens in that I'm hoping to start a m30 conversion in the not too distant future. I would like a drop of maybe 30mm in total with the springs. I know there's a weight penalty with this, so advice on an adequate setup would be appreciated!

Cheers,

Oggy
