PSS9 too hard - options?

[wadsy]

On e36 M3, PSS9 a bit too hard for everyday use.

Would replacing with Intrax, AST or other? give more compliant ride but still with adjustabilty for track use?

Or change springs and revalve?

Thoughts / suggestions please

Thanks

Suprised you find it hard, is pretty supple really with adjusters on soft the spring rates on pss9 are not that hard really.

Easy enough to get softer springs front from Faulkners etc, rear maybe more tricky as they are not coilovers. Can get the whole lot revalved, don't think you'd need to tho, im sure in soft the valving would cater fine for softer spring rates.

Koni adjustable mated to Eibach springs might suit you better, far cheaper option than pss9 kit new anyway & ready market for 2nd hand pss9s if you sell- I'd be v interested as an example & so would many bods.

Stop being such a jessy

Actuially, I had similar concerns with the PSS9's on my old E36. However, if you really are struggling, Bilstein will be able to supply you with softer springs.

They really are the most helpful bunch. Give them a shout.

I find my PSS9 fairly hard.

I found that with the damping set to soft it bounced loads. Had to have it set to 4-5 to get the damper to have any control over the spring.

I wouldn't change them now I have learnt where I like them set for track days. Not sure if I could live with them every day though.

Just my 2 cents.
