WTB: E30 suspension
« on: December 04, 2013, 05:34:58 PM »
Looking for a used cheaper suspension as mine is pretty shot right now.

Just need something to get me by for a bit until i can afford something nicer  ;)

Would like adjustable coil overs in the front then the adjustable caps in the rear w/ shorter springs.

Let me know what you guys got!

Thanks

These springs are actually from a product line closeout; they are no longer sold. They're called ST Sporttech Springs or something like that. That "ST" subsidiary is still in business, but now they also sell high-end coilovers, etc. Here's their site: ST Suspensions.

Definitely made for the E30. Here's a few pics:


I don't have any pictures of them installed. They drop the car quite a bit...2"...I was worried about my oil pan so I didn't ever install them.
