BMW Suspension Parts for BMW E36 (1992-1998) M3

Looking for coilovers that will provide reliability on street driven vehicles but are also capable of feeding your weekend track demon's desire for performance? BC Racing's BR Series coilover kit may be just the thing for you.

BR Series coilovers are the most popular and versatile option offered by BC racing, offering features such as 30-level dampening adjustment (simultaneous compression and rebound control), linear springs where possible, and a minimum of 2 inches ride height drop. To ensure performance, comfort, and quality, all BR Series kits are Dyno tested during the design stage to determine the best valving and spring rates, then installed and tested for a minimum of 6 months. This kit features mounts and brackets that are fully compatible with all stock mounting points and components.

The upper shock/strut mounts are all constructed of 6061-T6 Aluminum for strength and weight savings. BC Racing design 1 of 3 types of upper mounts for each vehicle: Caster/Camber Plates (+/- 3* camber), Camber Plates (+/- 3* camber), and Rubber Mount Plates (NVH reduction). The included mount option for this kit is shown in the kit specs and features below.

Lower shock mounts are powder coated for corrosion protection and constructed of either 6061-T6 aluminum that has been milled from a single piece (fork or bolt eye mount) or of STKM13C steel with all brackets welded robotically.

The included springs come in one of 3 styles: linear, S-barrel, and V-barrel. Linear springs are used in most applications unless limited by the OE design that does not allow the use of linear springs. All spring options are made from SAE9254 steel and have a zinc coating applied under the powder coating for increased spring corrosion protection and long term reliability.

All shock bodies used in the BR Series coilovers use a 53mm shock body (unless noted otherwise) for added strength, performance, and increased fluid capacity. All shocks are then powder coated black chrome for clean styling and corrosion protection.

Specs and Features:

• 8k Front & 10k Rear Spring Rate
• Linear front & S-Barrel rear springs
• Valved specifically to spring style and rate
• Camber Plate Front Mounts
• Rear Rubber Mounts
• Black Powder Coated Components

• 2 inch minimum and 3+ Inches of total potential drop
• Great for Track, Street, and any other conditions

Take total control of your E36's handling with the ECS Performance 2-Way Adjustable Coilover System. Built specifically for track use, this system bridges the gap between standard off-the-shelf coilovers and full-fledged motorsport suspension. These coilovers feature independent compression and rebound controls supported by external reservoirs; unlocking the precision tuning needed to shave seconds off your lap times.

Traditional 1-way coilovers force a single adjustment knob to balance both bump and rebound. These 2-way dampers eliminate that trade-off with fully independent compression and rebound controls. Use the 32 levels of compression adjustment to control front weight transfer under heavy braking, maximizing entry grip and allowing you to trail-brake deep into corners without understeer. 22 rebound levels fine-tune chassis recovery on brake release, keeping the front tires loaded through the apex for faster power-on exit speeds.

To maintain consistent performance during extended periods of performance driving, these dampers feature dedicated external fluid reservoirs that significantly increase total gas volume. During rigorous track use, rapid piston movement generates intense friction and heat, causing standard damper oil to thin out, aerate, and lose its damping force. By increasing overall fluid capacity, the external reservoirs effectively dissipate heat to keep peak oil temperatures down.

Upgrade your BMW's suspension with ECS Tuning Adjustable Sway Bar End Links, designed to provide up to 60mm (2.36") of adjustability. These end links allow you to eliminate sway bar preload or fine-tune it for specific racing needs and corner balancing. When installed, they improve drivetrain clearance and enhance sway bar responsiveness by reducing deflection, ensuring superior handling. Perfect for lowered vehicles using springs, coilovers, or air-ride suspension systems, these adjustable sway bar end links allow you to remove unwanted preload caused by changes in the center-to-center distance between sway bar mounting points. By adjusting the end links to a neutral position, you eliminate sway bar preload, enhancing suspension performance in various driving conditions.

The main body of the ECS Sway Bar End Links is crafted from strong, lightweight 6061-T6 billet aluminum and anodized red for superior corrosion resistance. Featuring left and right-hand threaded center sections and machined hex wrench fittings, these end links allow for quick and easy on-the-car adjustments. Zinc-plated hardware ensures secure and lasting adjustments, while the heavy-duty ball joint ends come with weather-resistant rubber boots and stainless steel wire retainers, providing superior protection against salt, rain, and ozone for extended durability. Each kit also includes zinc-plated Nyloc nuts and hardened steel washers for secure installation and improved contact surface on the sway bar.

These end links are designed, engineered, and rigorously tested by ECS Tuning to ensure the highest quality. Whether you have a lowered or stock suspension, these adjustable sway bar end links are the perfect upgrade, offering a high-quality, heavy-duty replacement that fits your specific needs.

Features:

Range of Adjustment: 215mm (8.46") to 275mm (10.82") 6061-T6 Billet Aluminum Construction: Red anodized for superior corrosion resistance Zinc-Plated Hardware: Provides durability and superior corrosion protection Right and Left-Hand Threaded Center Sections: Quick and simple on-the-car adjustments Heavy-Duty Ball Joints(M10x1.5): Weather-resistant rubber boots and stainless steel wire retainers for long-lasting durability

BMW E36 E46 KW Replacement Front End Link - Each is crafted to enhance the suspension performance of BMW E36 and E46 models, ensuring precision and stability on both road and track. Built with high-quality materials to meet KW’s exacting standards, this replacement front end link is designed to provide consistent handling and improved durability, especially when paired with KW coilovers or other suspension upgrades.

• Optimized for BMW E36 and E46 models, ensuring a perfect fit and reliable performance
• Durable construction withstands daily driving and track conditions
• Reduces unwanted suspension movement, delivering more accurate handling and stability
• Ideal for KW coilover setups or other aftermarket suspension modifications
• Quick, straightforward installation for minimal downtime

Urethane mounts keep the differential from twisting under load. As torque is put through the driveline it causes anything to twist and move. The differential is mounted to the subframe and the twisting and deflection can be transferred to the rest of the chassis. With a stiffer mount the differential will not deflect as much. This improves seat-of-the-pants feeling to the driver, giving more feedback for smoother power delivery. In theory, there's also more torque being sent to the drive wheels since it's not being used up shifting the diff weight around.

These are tough 88A durometer urethane bushings with a anodized almunum center sleeve, engineered by ECS. This is a set of E36 diff bushings - 1 for the front and 2 for the rear cover. New high-grade hardware is included (the front bolt has a tendency to snap from all that torque twisting!).

Sway bars are an essential upgrade when trying to get the best handling capabilities out of your BMW. Stock sway bars allow for too much play and excessive body roll, not keeping the wheels as firmly planted as they should be. Whiteline offers their performance sway bar kits that are designed to improve your BMW's handling characteristics and come with upgraded polyurethane bushings as well.

This Whiteline 22mm sway bar gives you more grip, better handling, and better outright performance. Sway bar upgrades are one of the best dollar-for-dollar investments you can make, improving your BMW's handling dynamics without affecting the comfort or ride quality.

This part fits the following BMWs:
1992-1999 E36 318i 318is 318ti 320i 323i 325i 325is 328i 328is
