I have an E36 Compact Rally Car about to be fitted with an E36 M3 engine. It was running Spax coil overs but I broke one and am now using 'fast road' Bilsteins. I gather the ideal set up is Bilstein PSS9 but these are several grand. Any cheaper ideas? Car is too soft at the moment - anyone know a good spring rate to aim for?

Hi

I would go for the KW variant 3's if you can stretch to it (a lot less than Billys!)

Thanks :cool that's actually a reasonable price. Just a shame I haven't got a spare £670 at the moment. Much less than the Billies - has anyone on here tried them?

I know a few people who have run them and they all rated them highly :thumbsup

Managed to find some Bilstein PSS9s second hand (barely) at very good price (considering £2100 new :eek) These are apparently the dogs danglies - adjustable everything. Now just have to find time and money to fit them...
