Does anybody know what is available poundage wise for the E30 cars.
I'm looking at replacing the soft sagging rubbish i have on my touring at the moment (Ventura) with proper stuff.

H&R cup kit is the way to go apparently. Drops the car 60/40 IIRC. Not sure how much but circa £3-400 for shocks and spring.

Having said that I've got adjustable koni shockers and eibach springs. Not fitted them yet. That'll happen in a couple of weeks when I've got time I shouldn't be spending revising.

Have a look at <a href="http://www.e30zone.co.uk">www.e30zone.co.uk</a> for hints, tips and advice.

By poundage you meant spring rate which I don't know sorry.


I see you've got a Tasmin racecar. Are you coming out to play in the TVR Challenge this year?

Cant help with spring Lbs ratings, but I do rate Eibach stuff very highly, they always seem to be rated 'just right' for what im after.

I had Eibach springs on my bimmer & also on 5 or other cars ive had, & present car is like a stroll through the Eibach catalogue, with springs, ARBs & dampers!

H&R stuff rocks too, just usually coz ive got a better deal or the stuff was already on the car Ive tended to go the Eibach route.

Yes ventura= cack quailty- I had a set, sagged at the rear after less than a yr

Hello Matt.
I was out for one race in the series the season before last having just bought it.
Unfortunately it was a very standard car needing lots of upgrading, so i started this over a year ago but due to various people and organisations taking the piss with regards to having things done or made for the car, i didn't get to race this last season which really annoyed me having spent money on another licence plus other fees and even booked my holidays around race dates.
I hoped to be out at the end of spring.
