Wow now thats hot! What color are you planning and can you elaborate on suspension... looks badass!

Cheers,

Thanks! I plan on keeping it the original color "baikal blue". The suspension was from Ireland engineering. It consists of Bilstein sport shocks with adjustable collars and 2.5 ID springs (300lb front/ 350lb Rear). The rear is bolt on, but the front required cutting and welding of the strut housing to accommodate the adjustable collar & strut insert. I also run IE camber plates.

I've always liked the rear on these cars. Your's is a very cool example! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the info on the suspension, I kept meaning to get the details over at E9coupe. How do you like the spring rates you have now?

Its on the comfortable side of stiff (for me), but probably too stiff for most people. Its a great street performance setup, but you would probably need 500lb+ for the track.

You have the lower perch on the rear upside down. This is bad because the perch is designed to retain the clip on the body of the shock. in this configuration it can pop off and drop the rear of the car.

Awesome, that's the kind of feedback I've been looking for! I'm sure I'll have more questions in the next few months.

Moosehead, (Paul?) good eye man! I went and looked at mine and the snaprings are spread, something I'll have to take care of upon reassembly.
