Guy's

I'm a little new here as you can see, and am looking for a little advice from those who have changed the suspension on the 325i Sport.

I have been running a much loved 1990 Sport in Brilliant Red for 2.5 years and am looking to improve the look by dropping the suspension a little. I don't want to loose the ride quality or invite any unwanted rattles to start on the inside. I have seen a few statements about an H&R Cup Kit and other options but I don't want to throw money away on a setup that is too stiff. The car is sitting on 16" Alpina's if that helps.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
Paul.

Cheers fellas,

How can I get hold of 'm5pilot' or where else can I source this kit from? plus where is best to buy clear indicators and black kidney's?

m5Pilot is his username here so you can go to your account home page (where it shows your basic details and stuff) and there will be a bit down the bottom where you can enter a user name and then send a private message, or you can search for a post by him and then click the pm link at the bottom of his message. You could also go to the FAO section and post a message for him, I think pm is probably best though.

I think that's how it works anyway.
