xi to M3 suspension conversion
I know the rear is same on xi/i so M3 bits fit. But what about front?? Heard M3 bushings fit in front. What about control arms and others...

Nothing from the front of the M3 fits on the xi.
What parts are you looking for? I know of a shop that will press harder durometer bushings into the stock arms. Not 100%, but nobody will fully fabricate new arms. |

Someone told me they fit M3 bushings in front.
I'll start with coilovers and we'll see how that goes.

If you are referring to this thread: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=586649
CobraMarty used the M3 rear subframe bushings. AFAIK Powerflex does not make replacement xi bushings for the inboard bushings on the front arms. It really sucks, but like I said, if you're hooked on it, call up RRT Racing. They said they would be willing to press in new ball joints. I'm sure they could cook something up with the inner bushings. |
