After completing my m52 conversion ,I'm finding the car very tale happy. The car runs on bilstein dampers and standard height sport springs.the lsd was recently refurbished and converted to take four clutch plates. The conversion has given me about 210bhp but the e30 m3s had about that and handle well .what differences to the suspension did bmw do on the m3s

Many detail differences resulting in different castor, wider track, improved KPI, improved front anti roll bar drop link location etc.

What tyre size and brand do you have?

get some decent lowering springs, bigger diamter adjustable anti-roll bars, m3 offset bushes, new control arms, bushes allround etc if they are old and then get an alignment and this will transform the car
