Dude no offense, but on your next video less text and more video visual
work. Five n half minutes of reading. But nice work.

Voodoo Moga says:

soundtrack ?

Michael Bell says:

I have a few questions man. What size springs did you get for the rear? 5″
spring or 6″ spring? How low are you able to go? Do you like the spring
rates you picked? I like a stiff DD and it seems you picked pretty stiff
rates. The perch is provided by ground control correct? Thanks mate.

photim says:

That’s not the stock collar nut, right? That front strut shaft is HUGE!

Nick Cronk says:

Yes how do you do the rear? Nice video about to do mine. Luckily I stumbled
upon this 

quiksilver330 says:

I am ordering a ground control set, can I just slap them on my stock
struts? 

Игорь Титов says:

please tell me which company you put the rack on BMW E30?

Voodoo Moga says:

could you share the parts list ?

Julio Velez Martinez says:

From what car is the bottle refill?

Magnus Andersson says:

Great vid and awesome music!

BimmerFreakE39 says:

Do you have any issues with the sleeves/springs spinning when you turn the
wheel? I did the same set up and my sleeves twist when the steering wheel
is moved left/right. I didn’t use any O Rings before installing the sleeve
but it never twisted or had play off of the car when I assembled it. 

DomeCity214 says:

Hey so is it absolutely necessary to shorten your strut housing when
running the GC Adj Springs? I just ordered new kyb struts and I was about
to buy the springs today but do I have to shorten the housing in order to
use the spring?

iridethembikes82 says:

How stiff is your suspension the rates you picked seem pretty high

skatefreak666666 says:

How long is the rear spring on the ground control kit? I have a 6” spring
with no adjuster now in the rear and I still have over 2″ or wheel gap.

neemguy81 says:

Great video. Editing was pretty darn good. I personally wouldn’t mess with
e30 suspension though. It just rides too nice “as is”. But, that’s just my
opinion.

evandael says:

righteous. not only did you make an excellent video, but you made excellent
music to accompany it.

Jon Drago says:

Wish i had this 2 years ago when i did mine with no idea! lol great
informative video sir!

TWIRKNOLOVE says:

Yes. All suspension components are the same on e30’s except for 84
versions. (narrower strut tubes)

poofgone576 says:

nice vid.now do the back.lol

Andrew Henault says:

Hey, Thanks a lot for posting this video. There is no clear, easy to find
directions on how to do this. It was made very well!

dany kruz says:
