WANTED - URGENT - COILOVERS - E36 M3

[lsclayton]

Hello, I hope someone out there can help. I have also put one in the wanted section, but I figure more people will read this.

I need (desperately) some new suspension before I go on a trackday to Le Mans at the end of May.

I am leaving on 28th so I would need to be able to get it and get it fitted before then..Hence the desperate plea!

Ideally, I am looking for good quality height & damping adjustable coilovers.

I was going to get some brand new GAZ GHA's but they are quoting 3 week lead times. just been too busy to get my st sorted. I am now running out of time and dont want to waste my weekend in France.

If you have got any or know anybody who is willing to part with some good quality coilovers in the next week, let me know and we can discuss price.

Thanks

Dan, thanks for the post.

I have seen these along with some TEIN Super Street for about the same price.

The problem with the H&R's is they arent damping adjustable, which is ideally what I am looking for.
Therefore the TEIN maybe an option.

once again thanks

I've just fitted the RM inverted BC racing jobbies-

Bought from-

Not driven it yet as still need to cornerweight & set up but I think are the best option out there on a smaller budget, seem good quailty & comes with front & rear solid top mounts- camber adjustable on fronts, & add the priec of that to other kits- easy £300 extra, may not be Intrax/Ohlins good, but not quite in that ££ ball park either! I think will be not miles off the KWv2 or pss9 quality at half the price.

Thanks for the post. I have been looking at these for a while now. Do seem really good value.

I have been trying to track someone down who had them fitted to find out what they thought.

I have sent you PM with a load of questions. if you dont mind.

Hello, thank you to everyone who has offered advice and made offers.

I have found some coilovers now. fingers crossed I can get them fitted in time.

UPDATE.

I purchased some BC racing coilovers. Had them fitted & Align locally.

I then took the car to Le Mans bugatti circuit for the weekend.

Spent most of Saturday playing with the settings. Still think I need the rear lower, but there is plenty of room to take it down.

I know everything is a personal preference; but so far the quality of the setup has impressed me.
I can definitely tell the difference between damping settings, I have been moving at approx 4 clicks per time, and then fine tuning with 1-2 clicks.

Car was well controlled, although I do think a set of firmer springs may go on at some time, but that is because I only use the car for the track and not on road.
