    However I have some inquiries,
    - the M springs are lower and stiffer or as the one I have??
    - the M shocks are stiffer than the normal shocks on the 328..
    Because what I know that the suspension on a 6 cylinder BMW is more sporty that the one on 4 cylinder BMW, so is the M suspension is another level of sportiness than the 6 cylinder suspension

    Lutfy I have sent you a PM to take it further from there
    To answer your questions.

    Yes. The springs are quite bit stiffer. To give you an idea:

    Stock E36 M3 - front rate: 105 - rear335
    Euro/LTW E36 M3 -front rate 138 - rear402

    They say the difference between the 328i and the US M3 is some 25% stiffer. My setup is almost 50% stiffer.

    Yes the shocks are different too. THey valved accordingly to accomodate the springs. Will definately get rid of the boat like ride you are now experiencing in your car.

As you know, the springs and swaybars do not wear out, as for the shocks, the rears are new (installed by Tony Edwards and 5K on them) and the fronts seem fine with no leaks. The bars come with matching rubber bushings.

      The M3 suspension is an economical way to transform you car eliminating the roll and sloppiness.

      I will make you deal. Complete kit AED 600.
