E36_Turbo 84 Report post Posted September 29, 2016 Hello there! So, before i go and waste some money on a set of Adjustable Suspension, i thought it would be in my best interest to ask some of you guys, what is the best bang for your buck? The pros and cons? What am i doing? Ok, so i'm "wanting" to install adjustable suspension on an E36 6cyl Coupe. I'm desiring a specific look to the car, will attach an image, it'll be quite low, "Not retarded STANCE LOW" , hahaha, that i do not mean to offend anyone that likes that stance look BTW. Sitting on BBS RC302's, and i want the option to adjust such settings, ride height etc. I've seen a few on Trademe, but i'm not sure what is the right one for me? I am setting the car up as a daily driver, and possible odd track day... BC Gold, D2, Bilstein, Koni, XYZ, Yellowspeed? There's a lot more, have any of you guys used such setups on a daily driver E36? Any negative / positive reviews about drivability / practicality? Worth the money? What brand is best? hopefully these questions don't sound silly haha, but i need to ask before buying so i can make a better informed choice with the many options on the market. I've had Bilsteins, standard Sport suspension, just a lovely setup for E36 cars, so that i do know and have experienced that particular manufacturer's product. Any advice and input is greatly appreciated, Cheers Gents. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matich 6 Report post Posted October 5, 2016 I got some D2's when they were on sale for my e36, no unusual sounds, fit perfectly no complaints. I couldn't justify paying a few hundred more for BC golds when there's little to no difference between the two (some might argue quality? but both BC and D2 are Taiwan made). I use mine as a daily and a odd weekend warrior so far have been more than impressed. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E36_Turbo 84 Report post Posted October 7, 2016 Thanks for the input, yeah, i plan on putting something similar on the car, im not building a purpose built track car, and spending a few extra dollars on a different brand with similar specs is something i'll have to decide on. Build quality is a question, but typical brands like Koni, Bilstein come at a price as well. Will do some more research Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herbmiester 936 Report post Posted October 9, 2016 Koni Yellows are affordable when not bought in NZ. With the UK pound tanking try Demon Tweeks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
