Suspensions, what the lads think

[Big_M_]

lads,
which to ye find the best, koni,billies,spax etc, etc.
i have spax adj. at the moment but find the front very hard even with adjustment to full soft. both sides are the same so don't think i've a bent shock or anything. so i'm looking for a change to what i don't know i'm thinking billies adjustables

[Big_M_]

any of you lads on this on this

[Big_M_]

so what do ye think lads

[Simon]

I don't think that bilstein do adjustable road suspension for the E30?

I've got bilstein sports and H&R springs on my M3, and they are awesome, but it really seems to be down to taste really, I'll say my bilsteins are good, someone will say they're H&R's are best, and someone else will say my koni's are the best, so it's one of those questions that unless someone has tried all setups back to back, you will never get a 100% answer!

if u want to handle the uprate the roll bars and get a front strut brace.

For me same as simon too but on a 325i I find the ride very good as good as standard. Seems to be a goodcomprimise between handlng and ride quality. But i think that is partly to it being only 35mm dropped instead of some sh!t 60mm springs

[Big_M_]

i guess when you think about it is down to taste, will powerflex bushes and strut brace front and rear improve the handling as much as the anti roll bar upgrade as i was told that the 325i anti roll bars are pretty heavy guage from stock

[Karan]

h&r cup kit 60/40 drop, poly bushes, e30 m3 offset TCA bushes, strut brace, eibach/h&r arbs, and you will be laughing aound every corner!!!

ive had konis, eibachs, terra, but h&r are ahead of the game.. cheap too at Ԛ£350 for the whole setup

[Big_M_]

Karan, had the 60/40 spax adj kit before, 17's were catching the wings on full lock m8, whats the deal with these offset bushes for the m3, are they the ecentric bushes or differant ones again, cause i'm going for the powerflex kit front and rear will they come with this or what
was thinking of going for bilstines but there are so many, the zone shop has bilstine "sport" range and other shops have streetline or sprintline dut f**k know's if there adjustable or not

[Karan]

the m3 ones are the offset ones.

just get the cup kit ....mine never scraped when i had 17in alp reps with 205/40 17s

what exactly are they scrubbing? the wing or inner splash guards.. sounds like u may need spacers or have wrong offset wheels

[Dan318-is]

karan how much are these m3 bushes an were from mate

[Big_M_]

my mistake, if for instance your turning into petrol station or drive over a hump with the wheels locked or even partialy locked since the wheels travel up, it then hits the arch. on the front only and only when lowered by 60mm at the front. will the m3 ecentric bushes fit straight in to 325i and if yes how are they to be adjusted

[Big_M_]

318-is there less that Ԛ£20 from powerflex go to, www.powerflex.co.uk

[Dan318-is]

ah yes i remember now

thanks

Email me if you want powerflex stuff.

I wil be putting it up on the site next week.

15% discount aswell over what powerflex sell them for.

the 60/40 kit on the H&R is actually around 52mm at the front so you waont have any problems.

Its the best you can buy, the bilsteins are brilliant but alot of money - again you can buys these from the zone shop.

Sal, what will the price difference be, as I believe Paul offers these for sale too doesn't he? I assume they will be cheaper again through the zone shop?
