Aiyak....Bilstein coilover no budget lar...now on Bilstein OEM...warna hitam...eh..tapi memang keras......i prefer comfort zone......so now stock springs unless can dapat 1 cantilk used Eibach ke, G&M ke, H&R ke......janji tak nak low sangat....mm...BTW what springs are notlow but comfy ahhh??:wink:

Depending on which model of the Bilsteins did you choose for your car ....Bils shocks are stiffer than OEM shocks (Boge) by nature Black Bilsteins are about 15% stiffer than Std shocks and the Sports Bils or Yellow Bils are somewhere around 30 % stiffer .......both of these that I have used ...would go well with H&R springs ( comfort ) or the special edition of the Eibach Bilsteins springs would be ideal .......and if you want full on Sports E34 set -ups these would be my choices....Yellow Bils / K & W or Sachs(sports) shocks with ..Eibach springs or K & W springs ......keep in mind that Everybody's " Comfort Zone " are all different ....just have to try them all I guess !!! Good Luck

pix for you ....These are shocks that I have , all gives a very different feel to the ride ....my concept have been more on the Sports side than comfort ... Sports 60 comfort 40

Hey! Thanks Mate!! Great info......so if its Bilstein Black will match H&R well??? How is the height?? Not that low ?? Say 1.3inch Front & 1 inch rear??? Coz now my front is High...after installing the Bilstein Black.......so im kinda hate my front being higher than my rear....hahaha........so should i look for H&R springs?? Anyone have used ones?? Hehe....im kind of budget guy mar.......Thanks again for this great info

 

[morpheus5039]

new shocks tend to make the car higher, it will settle down naturally overtime(a bit only la), when i changed new boge my front also damn high , after changing vogtland, the gap gone hehe :wink:

this applies to spring also...

 

[simonseze34]

This is about the ride height : Black Bils with H&R springs(Grey) Yellow sports Bils will be about 1/2 inch to 1 inch lower ......... could be even lower with Eibach springs !!! .......

eee....this is nice!! Bro....simonseze34........

How is the ride like?? And i believe the H&R is a bit cheaper than EIBACH.........How does it feel when u have 5 adults in the car.....??? Highway with fast speed......it holds?? Comfy?? With a bit of sport feeling i guess.......
:wink::wink:........Yeah......now my next step is to lower the car.......so since this is the height i wanted, i will go for H&R.......any leads??? Murah murah price??? Where to get 1......:wink:

 

[RadicalE34]

Guys.....I wanted my car to look like this!! Cant find the rims.....

end up can only look like this.......Haizzz........very kecewa.......but i hope after installing the H&R springs....the nose will go down a bit......

So any of you guys have the 1st picture wheels , 17" for E34, please drop me a line ya.....Cheers:wink:

those vogtland is very hard to find. even morpheus dont know where to find. try to racun morpheus to sell to you la. hahahaha.

 

[morpheus5039]

i will sure sell those vogtland 1 day de la...u juz wait lo haha
Becos that time i oredi change to heavier engine and mayb i will change to bilstein b8 + eibach haha~

The ride is comfy....mayb bcos i m still on 15" wheel, but it eliminates the bodyroll during high speed(or mayb i am not driving hardcore enough hehehe)

Btw....i dont know how to get it in malaysia but you can contact vogtland's official website and import into malaysia ma.... like Mr.535i imported his eisenmann exhaust :top:
