Mouse and I should have gotten with you. With the haste we left here it didn't even dawn on me.
Might get another chance though. Will be in Htown again this weekend to do sale paperwork and there is another meet on Sunday morning.

Brother, I'm sorry. They swore me to secrecy.
It was expensive though...

Note that you can get a 9mm front upper spring pad, and 15mm spring pads top and bottom for the rear. The front also might have a drop hat - it's pretty common to throw the E90 upper spring perch on, which lowers the front 15mm. (If it's aluminum, it's the E90 hat.)
FYI, I've done at least five E30 engine swaps (not counting stock).
Also, if that car was OBDI converted, check the state of the knock sensors. OBDI knock sensors commonly fail in as little as 10 years. This shows up as visible cracking.

Good info, thanks nick. Will check on all you mentioned. Forgot about all the common E30 mods since it's been awhile since I sold all of mine. Maybe that's why the wife was so generous. I sold my e30s around when our daughter was born to fund nursery, SUV purchase, etc. Looking forward to having one in the driveway again.
