Recommended Posts

Ok i've been reading this post on Toyspeed about this Race BMW bottoming out when driving, can some of you more knowledgable people read the post and tell me if he's got it tuned properly or is he just got a crap car ??

by owning such a modified car it'd be very hard to avoid the popos.

How did he get 50mm from the ground with track setup? I mean X2BUMP is 55mm from ground with honda and cuts and i thought that was bump stop's etc.

Might be coil overs but wouldnt have thought that it could take it past bump stops can it?

The guy needs his head read. It is impossable to have an E30 as low as he has and still have any suspension movement on the back. If the set-up was the best dogs bollocks then the factory DTM and Groupe A cars would have been set up that low. He will also find out very quickly that MANZ (NZ Motorsport) Will not allow him to race at the ride height in any tin top class (Other than clubmans maybe) as they have a minimum ride height. This is measure by removing the air out of both wheels on the same side of the car. Nothing on the car is allow to touch the ground other than the tires.

Plus, if he is real lucky to have any movement in the rear, he will have such a short stroke on the rear shocks/spring that would deam themuseless as they wont even have the time to dampen the bump/rebound. The springs would look more like a bent piece if wire and nothing like a spring.

Good for him, we just might be rid of another dropkick on the roads.

Best I can measure it, the convertible is now 110mm (to underside of sill rails) and on a trip down to Raglan on the weekend, I was having to drive around dead possums to save the front spoiler. 50mm?? What a tool! Or a liar?
