E30/325e upgrade



re: E30/325e upgrade:

      I suggest save your money by not buying a turnkey suspension 
package.  Rather, restore your car's suspension to as new condition first.
      If you want to drop your car slightly, like to the lower side of 
stock, get a set of factory S package, or better yet E30//M3 takeoff 
springs.  They come a dime a dozen if you post a wanted ad.
      Replace every suspension mount, subframe mount, bushing, and ball 
joint/tie rod on the car.  Use the bushings as designated for an //M3, 
especially the upper strut mounts.
      Use Koni struts and shocks.
Viola, you will get a factory new ride and then some, with both greater 
comfort _and control, then you may have experienced in a BMW before, and 
more money still in the bank.  Should you get the urgo to go gonzo from 
there, you will have a fresh tight car to build upon.
just one person's opinion.
