Getting my much needed suspension upgrades done!

[SchismX]

So far I have my list compiled and purchased already. Currently have running m-sport suspension and Eibach springs. Right now the car feels horrible as far as my handling goes and feels very uneasy at speeds of 110+ mph. Feels floaty and I believe my rear shocks are shot. But my bet is that the car will be completely transformed after the upgrades. If anyone has anymore input, it would be appreciated.

-Swift Spec R springs
-Koni yellows F/R
-M3 RSBs
-M3 front control arm kit
-M3 front sway bar
-1M front strut tower bar
-Dinan rear shock mounts

That will make a huge difference. You should add the Dinan fixed camber plates to that!

Sounds like a plan. I think you'll love this setup. I have a similar setup and it's great for a sporty dd. Of course you'll need a good set of tires but that goes without saying.

What are you going to use for bump stops? The existing ones, or maybe trim them down a bit?

Counting on it! For now I am just using my stock upper strut mounts. Down the road if I decide I want to get more serious I will probably get some adjustable camber plates.

I am going to be using the e36 m3 bump stops in front and the z4 bump stops in the rear.

Nice! Going to be a completely different car.

if youre high mileage, might consider replacing your front shock mounts too.

I have 40k mi. I should be good for a bit.
