![]() I know I need the CC plates too. I found a bilstein tuned suspension for my car, but dont know what it includes. Its at www.bimmerparts.com for $700. Guess I will have to wait till Mon. to find out. My car is dropped about 2", and I love the way it looks, but I want it to ride better. My car is a 88 notch, 5-sp. I want to drag race it on occasion, but havent yet. It looks as if I have stock shocks and struts and someone heated the springs for the drop. Ive had this car 2 1/2 years and it rides like a 2-ton truck. I'm sick of it. . Seeing as how I got to replace dampers and springs, I figure why not go coilover and keep it low to the ground with a much improved ride. Am I thinking right? Then I can raise the front end up for weight transfer, and pull a good hole shot? BTW, at least they relocated the rack.

![]() Heated springs are definitely the wrong thing to do.
Coilovers are a wee bit more expensive (than struts and springs), but they do allow adjustability. Let us know what you decide.
