Slammed the sport! X Low now

[Jhonno]

are they the same as the ones the m3 ran?

[M5pilot]

They are the best stand alone shock out there. Lots of money as Simon says but worth every penny.

Hows the ride with the H&R Cup springs?

[Simon13]

quite hard Sal, hardar than Karansi think.

[Dan318-is]

so 360 for 4 struts without springs?

expensive but i know it will be worth it

what springs is best to use with them?

i remember ian332isport telling me he used HnRs on his an that they were the daddy

[Richy325iTouring]

Ian uses the H&R -35mm springs, demlot also has the same setup and me till i fitted these cupkit springs.

Both springs are very good and have their own plus point depending on what u want.

[Richy325iTouring]

si how is your rears rubbing then
cos i never had a problem with the tourin running 8 j alpinas and that sat a lot lower than your sport is

[M5pilot]

Richy,

I can try and get a set for you but it aint easy. Kermit was very very lucky.

318iS:

Just buy a Cup kit - its extremely good and cheaper.

[Dan318-is]

im keeping my options open sal,

it wont be for a while anyway i want that zaust an some new braking stuff before i touch the suspension

by the way sal can you get ATE discs in teh zone shop or ATE fluid?

think they would sell well!

and collection isnt a problem either looks like im gona be spending a lot of time back and forth heathrow at the moment

[M5pilot]

I actually spoke to the main distributer of Bilstein today and ATE!

ATE coming soon.

[Simon13]

I don't know richy, the back looks higher in these pics usually the entire tyre cannot be seen just the top of the alloy get me?

i think its beacuse of the offset et28 maybe

I'll see what I can do. Find me a Touring owner who wants touring springs and Cup kit shocks and we are in business.

Si, car looks awesome, I like the stance, it's perfect.

I've had a little tidy up on this post, as requested by PM, as it was going ever so slightly off topic!!

nothing wrong with a bit of name and shame.
and if someone feels that depsite owing thousands they r free to buy new suspension and new cars then they r sorely mistaken

[Demlotcrew]

Only the thread originator can request for the 'tidying' of it!

Those who posted did so on their own.

sal id posted summit which wud have made it all clear, but its been deleted.

basically 7 months + ago richy crashed my corrado.
and so far has dont NOTHING to repair it or pay me for the car.
yet he feels happy to buy ICE, new cars, spend loads on petrol, order new suspension etc

and quite understandably i feel im getting pissed off.

[E30Adam]

Nick, lets remember the purpose of this forum mate.

We must not allow personal misunderstandings spill onto the forums, I don't want to have to get the lock out

[Adammcf]

Back on topic -

This thread has made my mind up that Im defo going for the 60/40 cup kit. Before this I didnt know which looked best out of the 30/30 kit and this one. Now I know!

[Simon13]

i have pic's of a 35mm all round drop! that still looks nice

[Chaos]

60/40 def loosk best in my eyes.

car looks so much better balanced.

[Adammcf]

My car is lowered about 60-80mm all round. Ive no idea what springs they are but they are coming out as the car is too low and one of the coils snapped on a rear spring shortly before the engine went bang.

I think going from that low to a 30mm drop would seem like putting standard suspension back in!

[ian332isport]

Ian uses the H&R -35mm springs, demlot also has the same setup and me till i fitted these cupkit springs.

Both springs are very good and have their own plus point depending on what u want.

This is what mine looks like on the -35mm H&R's. I do have a heavier engine and a sub box fitted, so it's possibly a bit lower than most cars with these springs. I personally can't imagine going any lower than it is now. I have enough problems with speed bumps as it is



Ian.

[Karan]

60/40 cup kit all the way

[Simon13]

My car looked very close to Ian's before

h&r 35mm srpings like Ian's, not alot of difference really




excuse the state of it

[Dan318-is]

i prefer your alpinas Si deffo

[Simon13]

the show/poser wheels! they were only off as i had no tyres for them and was spending on other things as u know!

[Splondike]

Looking good mate

Are you happy with the new setup then ?
