E30 Wouldn't really suit the track conditions on the civic :p

Thanks mate, Yeah e30 def needs more lows, but no coil-overs and a super low sump make things difficult. I'll just have to stick with my H&R + Billstein combo for the time being until I get keen and get coil-overs.

The E30 suspension system isn't ideal for using coil-overs either

Here is a quick pic of how it sits, using 5mm spacers all round. Bit of poke up front and the rear sits equal with the guard at the rear. Could probably do with a bigger profile tire to help fill the guards I reckon. The front guards on these e30's sit higher than the rear for some reason...




I also have a set of Mtech2 style sideskirts and rear apron on the way from the UK at the moment, so should help with the lows a little

Snip

Eye spy mini?

[USDMem1]

haha that mini has been sitting there pretty much as a storage bin for my old civic parts etc Un-finished project of my brothers. Will get back on it later this year i reckon. If he doesn't, then I will

More low = coil-overs. Coil-overs means some welding etc. No direct bolt-on coil-over kits for the e30 yet i'm pretty sure. Currently it is lowered on Billstein sports with H&R sport springs, but that only dropped it about an inch or so.

Big problem with lowering the 318is e30, is the sump of the m42 engine sits very low, if I lower the car anymore, I risk smashing the sump. For a daily it is hard to justify going lower. Although it would look a lot better
