joshnz 2 Report post Posted May 2, 2010 Hi all Having let go of the E30 today to its new owner (i shed a quiet tear as he drove off) I am looking at putting some new springs into my Msport 328i coupe - it has recently had rebuilt shocks so I may or may not have to shorten them. What I'm after is some low or super-low springs (pref super low), I don't know whether super low will fall under 100mm (not really wanting to have to cert again) - according to the reseller of Jamex springs on Tardme he says the car should still sit over 100mm, could anyone confirm or deny this? Can anyone confirm or deny this? I can get shocks shortened for f**k all so not worried about having to do that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pureboiracer 0 Report post Posted May 2, 2010 just slam some king springs in there man, they will be slightly higher than the jamex superlows, king spring is around 45-50mm jamex tends to be closer to 60-65.. and it should still be high enough.. ive never got a car under 100mm with kings.

Superlow kings or just low? I remember I had my old old E36 320 on jamex lows and that sat under 100m :S Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pjay 8 Report post Posted May 3, 2010 Coilovers, it's probably time to do the shocks anyway. $900 I paid for Vmax. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joshnz 2 Report post Posted May 5, 2010 (edited) Superlows went in today, little bit lower than I wanted so I may change that soon, but it still looks pretty tight Edited May 5, 2010 by Josh_ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
