BMW E30 Rear Shocks & Springs

but mustang shocks are impossibel to get in europe :-P
i ask a local ford deal about foxbody shocks

his face was like

?FOX? ?BODY? !MUSTANG! ??????
iam pretty sure he was imagine a shemale at that moment LOL

no i spread that info for ppl like me which search all time for spare/upgrade parts and cant find a info cause nobody realy tried it before

again
Koni,bilstein etc make shorter ones and they are easy to find here in germany 
also M3 are shorter

the only thing which worry me is the upper part
the thread size is smaller than the s12 ones-->small problem
bolt hole is exact same diameter

With washers and bushings you will most likely be ok...problly...maybe...

USDM car parts are easy to get in the UK.

but with shipping i end in a price area from a new koni shock here

*digging out the corpses*

next week i tray H&R e30 springs on the rear :-D

OK
E30 Springs WONT WORK

you can use them but they are serious short. i tested H&R Motorsport (6cmdrop) springs...theyre just 17cm tall!(1/3 of the oem spring size) the seat also need a small mod to fit over the pearch.
maybe a OEM BMW one would be a nice slam on a S12.
so far the VW Passat front springs are the best bet from an other brand

I have a lot of factory springs, that if you pay for shipping I'll send a pair to you, But I really don't think they'll fit around the S12 lower spring perch.

no need jay but thx,
um they fit if you cut abit off ;-) just a little bit

ive just try diffrent things cause if not me no one in germany would have the balls to do it LOL
the most s12 owners here are happy if they can make theyre 12´s run somehow

next thing on my list are Mercedes 190 springs ...so stay tuned

lol I run ford e350 shocks in the back

I_heart_VVL on 03:44:15 PM / 25-Aug-12what shock are you using? what are your spring rates? wheel size? live axle or IRS?

looks hot 8) any camber mods? wheels look fairly straight to be an IRS model lol

just needs a wider wheel to fill in that fender lol
