Hi i was watching a programe on touring car legends the other night, and the e30 m3 made quite the apperance, i noticed that they handled amazing, just wondering if anyone knows the correct suspension setups that some of them ran like:

wishbones
struts
springs
dampers
allignment

that sort of thing

cheers

A quick google search of 'E30 M3 DTM suspension' will give you a good idea.

I imagine springs/dampers/alignment was different for every track too.

to be honest its way out of most peoples range,
used blade anti roll bars £3k
uniball front wishbone set up £2.5k
front legs for centre lock rims £3k and these will not come with shocks /springs/ lower hubs/bearing
rear trailing arm £2.5k
all rubber bushes removed replace with ali so unless you have a seam welded shell with a welded multi point cage a std car will be cracked in no time.
