Hi all, I'm looking for some advice. I've recently bought an E36 325i as a track car. It's been fully stripped out but has had little else done to it. I've taken it on track twice and it's awesome fun but the suspension is very soft and (combined with 50 profile tyres on 15" wheels) gives a lot of body-roll and quite poor turn-in.

Does anyone have any advice for a good suspension set-up that will give me much firmer handling and good front-end grip? I'll be changing the wheels at some point but suspension is my priority.

Thanks in advance.thumbup

Depends on budget but this is an area that you need to get right, I run Moton on my E36, superb but very pricey, I would seriously consider Intrax 1K2's, a superb shock at a cracking price and there are deals to be had!wink

Cheers taffyracer, my budget is certainly not unlimited but I don't want to be too tight in this area as I know that it's a major factor in my future fun. I want to get it right first time and not have to change it again in future.

Can you give me any more details on what your suspension set-up gives you and likely cost?

Cheers
