1997 M3... Too low for Michigan

[projekt-H]

Just picked her up like this, Traded for my stock-appearing Audi S4. It's a 1997 M3.

Right now its sitting on Raceland (ick) coilovers, 17x8 Style 5's (205 tire). Carbon hood. Pretty much nothing else done to it than that, (Turner chip, short throw shifter) I'm going to need to raise it up at least 1/2 inch, and hopefully get some more tire under her.






I promise, I'll some non-instacrap pictures of it up soon.

You will leave it at that height and you will like it.

Looks pretty fucking sweet right there dude.

I know some guys that make some insanely awesome coilovers for that car.

I never knew how bad Michigan roads were until I moved away. They're bad.



BUT I DON'T CARE. YOU LEAVE IT AS IT IS.

Thank you!

I would LOVE to leave it as it is right now, and if I get another E36 as a daily/beater, I very well might go this low. Looks awesome like this, but it bottoms out too often, bump-steers like mad (Yes I know rack spacers will help this) and worst of all, understeers (also accredited to stretch)

Once I have a daily this car will be only for fun runs, driving hard and track days. It'll be staying like this for another week maybe, and my friend already got some awesome shots, she might want to do some more before I raise it. I will be sure to share. A project log will also be started soon, starting with analoid-level paint correction. She's not bad right now, just a bit of swirling that for this car I will not allow.

Thanks for the support and comments/compliments. I'm in love with it.

Cant really see that the clear on the hood is faded here



Stately, Aggresive, Love

Are you not running a front swaybar? Raceland doesn't offer a m3 coilover.

[EURO_meister]

You can run racelands and a swaybar on an m3, you just need to use the swaybar links that mount to the control arm and not the strut. Its the same for the 93-up 325's.

There is no such thing as too low.

There is no such thing as too low.
