Dinan Stage 1 Suspension

weissja · 12-02-2008, 11:48 AM

I'm thinking of getting the Dinan Stage 1 Suspension pacakage (springs, struts & shocks) and ECU tune. How does the Stage 1 Suspension compare to the setup on the E92? Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

I had stage 3 on my E46 M3.
They use Koni yellow shocks with pre-set damping and Dinan spring.
It's harsher than stock but not too bad. Basically whatever review you read on Koni yellow shocks, that's what you can expect.

If you like more stiff, rough ride, it'll do the right job for you.
But if you like softer, comfy but handles well suspension, it seems like Koni FSD shocks + Eibach spring is the way to go.
