Or am I just completely looney ? Reason I say is because I found some on ebay for really reasonable. On the other hand Turner motorsports has a set of H&R's for like $230. __________________ --Kenny-- Myspace Speed costs money, I work with what I got | | | 06-22-2008, 06:27 AM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: Feb 2005 Location: Richmond Hill, GA Posts: 1,231 | front or rear? rear definitely will not fit. | | | 06-22-2008, 06:27 AM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Auburn, WA Posts: 1,814 | no only ti specific springs would work __________________ 5/96 318TI Sport BIG TURBO | | | 06-22-2008, 06:34 AM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2008 Location: Texas Posts: 128 | Quote: Originally Posted by Jean H.318TI no only ti specific springs would work | Thanks for the clear up on that.

The E36 M3 has different struts than the rest of the E36s. The rear springs from an E36 would probably fit in there, but that doesn't mean you want them. The Z3 and all it's variants should fit the ti also. | | | 07-31-2008, 10:36 PM | #10 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: 43609 Posts: 3,425 | Ive used ti, z3, and non-ti specific E36 springs on my ti in the rear, all fit and worked fine. Im currently running Mroadster stock springs which lower the rear to H&R Race spec for the ti. Front are capatible with all the other e36s. __________________ 1995 Hellrot Clubsport 318ti -Gone 1996 Schwartz II Sport 357ti - 5.7L V8 LS1/6 1997 Moregrun Metallic 318ti - Gone 1998 Schwartz II sport 318ti - M50TUB25/5 | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
