[QUOTE="Alvin, post: 70802"] Dude Better not to compare with the E34. E30's are much more than the E34's in cost. First of all its 4 lug! Spring will cost about 1k, sway bars (n i mean really good ones) will cost more than 1k. Unless you can all these used, then you are lucky. But then again you will not get the hadling that you want. Proper spring rates IS IMPORTANT! You can further reduce the weight up front not only by moving the battery back but by also changing the lower arms to aluminum. Its not cheap. Yes the 2.5 conversion will still be a M20. Well what kinda power you are targeting at? If 10k budget is too high then better to stick with M20B25 plus some proper upgrades on stopping power & handling. Come for the TT either in Puchong or Showru. Lots of E30 sifu's who you can chat with. My last comments on this issue. Good luck mate! [/QUOTE]
