BC coils are the best bang for your buck IMO. Contact them directly and they can get you custom spring rates if you want to go that route!
Congrats on the full family conversion

Post E30 picnic update....
Car is up on jack stands, Chinese GSP axles are out. Took some time to tidy up the undercarriage, fix some little things, and add some upgrades.
Cleaned and painted the brake calipers, and ordered stop tech pads/rotors all around.
Parts should be here when I get back from Canada and she will be back on the road doing Smokey burnouts!
Also added a euro front plate to let the other bimmer heads know there is something lurking under the hood...
Till next time!

Your car looked amazing at the picnic. Here's to a speedy recovery!
Thanks, She is back on the road!
I can’t believe how much smoother the GNK axles are... no more rear end vibrations, or chattering.
Dropped her off today at the paint shop to have some paint correction done to fix a few spots on the hood, trunk and roof that developed since the respray last spring.
When she gets home, it’s time for an oil change, and install an oil level sensor to get rid of that pesky oil light on the overhead console.
I think I’m done with the old girl for now... time for deletes/tune on the X5 35d

Oh fun! Curious to hear how that goes, those were a fun to drive already.

I'm running a custom tune by Mark D'Sylva for 93 octane, the schrick cams, 7200 rpm limiter, upgraded intake, and fuel injectors.
This throttle body is 68mm (+4mm) and supposed to flow 11% more air. It adds a negligible amount of hp/tq, however throttle response is supposed to be vastly improved!

I'm trying to squeak every little bit out of this S52 without a turbo, for now, lol.

its really refreshing to see an early model still being giving proper treatment. the wheel/tire/suspension fitment is spot on.

I did not realize this had BBS LM's. Favorite wheel of all time.
Didn't know they made this in 4x100. 17" or 16"?
Thanks! They are 16’s. I have a set of 17” ACT wheels also that look good, but the BBS’s are my favorite...
BC, ITB’s would be awesome! Mark did the dyno tuning when the previous owner built the motor. As it sat before the BBTB, it put down 274hp at the wheels on 93 octane. The ZF320 mates well with the 2.92 rear end too; nice easy revs on the highway with plenty of snap.
You’ll have to take it for a spin next time we get together!
