How low or how horrible would the drive be if I fitted standard 318is springs front and rear on a 325. Would the engine be to heavy and ride to low. Cheers

Air con spec 318is springs are the same rate as povo spec 325 springs.
The weight difference is not as extreme as people would make you believe.
Most people would not be able to tell.

Use one of the online ETKs to identify the part # of a particular spring, then paste that # into the "search BMW part by partnumber" box on the home page. This will give yo a list of all BMWs that used that spring, and allow you to 'drill down' to find the exact models.
For instance, it will show that the iS front spring, 31 33 1 130 046, is used on the European M3 with aircon, is the European RH drive m tech spring for two door saloons, and for many others.
