Hi just joind and posted in the new members section
First tech question is
I got a 316
What's the difference betwen my suspension and the rest of the e30 range and when I get coilovers will the standard front legs/ hubs be ok?
Also hopefully it will be a 2.8 soon so brakes and suspension needs to be done aswell.
And also antiroll bars. am I right in thinking the best ones to fit are the 318is ones apart from the m3 ones.
Chears ...

Is it a 316 or a 316i? Saloon, Touring or Cabriolet?
A standard 316 saloon will have the bare minimum in suspension and brakes; rear drums and 45mm front struts. If you're going to increase to 2.8, you NEED 51mm struts and rear discs as a minimum.
