I cant find the sportline on eibach's website for our application? Where did you see it?
I’ve seen the Sportlines on a few sites, but there seemed to be a discrepancy about what chassis it would fit. For example the site would say it’s for a 1991 318is, but the chassis would be listed as an e36, some sites would even just list it as an e30/e36 option. Anyway I called up a few performance shops around my way and they confirmed that there was a Sportline kit for the 1991 318is, but these guys didn’t know the difference between an e30 and an e36 (Dam muscle car shops…). So I figured I’d call the source and find out what’s the real deal. I knew it was bad news for us e30 318is owners when the first words out of the reps mouth was “oh yeah, it looks like we’re going to have to upgrade our catalog”, LOL. So without going into any useless details, “there is no Sportline kit for the e30 1991 318is” and just in case you were wondering like me… “The e36 springs will not fit, there is a difference with the rear springs” or at least that’s what the rep said.
On a similar note, I also called H&R and I spoke to a really nice lady who told me flat out that “there are currently no race springs for a 1991 318is and we have never made a race spring for that car.” Oh well, like I said she was a nice lady who was just punching in numbers on a computer.
Ahhh the wait continues, IE3’s baby!!! Number ###, on the IE3 wait list, LOL…
