Supercharged e90 m3, e60 m5, ect and for some reason I just feel so at home in the e30. Such a perfect chassis and all around car of u ask me. Even the m20.. actually a pretty reliable motor.

Early model e30s have a higher arch than late models making them tricky to slam. I have a 5” spring and the rear shock is adjusted to the lowest portion and I’m tucking half of the tire on 15”. The preload will be whack but it’s something you can do until you get 3-4” springs
