With m3 front suspension, and 318ti sport rear suspension
What kind of lowering kit can I buy. I'd prefer Koni shocks, and to keep the total bill under $1000 so that I have money left over to do swaybars and antiroll bars
From what I've gathered, kits for the M-coupe would bolt on for my situation. True? |  |  | | 07-31-2005, 03:01 AM | #2 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Toronto Posts: 148 |
Any MCoupe/Roadster suspension kit will fit. If your budget is around 1000 then look for coilovers, there are plenty of choices. SL Quote: | Originally Posted by Silver00spike With m3 front suspension, and 318ti sport rear suspension

I'm waiting 2 weeks to spend another $1k for that to be done, because the guy who CAN do it, is on vacation. Its been 5 weeks so far. | | | | | 08-01-2005, 09:41 PM | #6 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2004 Posts: 411 |
$300 with towing to have a shop called VAC in Philly TRY unsuccesfully to do it. $575 shipped from Active Autowerks for a new(er) computer with EWS supposedly removed. Car doesn't even crank. Everything was checked, and it seems like EWS is still doing its job. AA doesn't take returns. WHAT THE ****
Shop tells me if I buy a complete key and ecu package, I'm wasting my money, and it might not work. I think the guy who can do it for $1k did something to my car that only HE can fix, and I can't prove it. I'd kill someone if I knew who | | | | | 08-01-2005, 11:15 PM | #7 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2005 Location: England, UK Posts: 1,288 |
