BMW Suspension Parts for BMW 3 Series E36 (1992-1998)

Factory Pre-set Damping

The Variant 1 is KW's basic simple and effective coil over kit that is still packed with lots of features -

• Pre-set damping optimized for a blend of ride comfort and handling with less bodyroll than the standard suspension,
• Stainless steel strut/shock bodies and composite spring perches for superior corrossion resistance,
• Individually height-adjustable - Front = 30-60mm lowering; Rear = 25-55mm lowering,
• TUV approved lowering range and operation,
• Expert engineering and design for ease-of-use and long durability,

This is the ideal coil over kit for an E36 owner who does not plan on tracking or autocrossing the car and just wants a lower, more aggressive stance and better handling. KW has set the shock damping rates to be an excellent balance for a smooth yet taut ride, and to resist bodyroll motions for better handling. The Variant 1 differs from the Street Comfort set in that it has stiffer springs and revised shock settings. If you want a sportier ride and better handling than stock the Variant 1 is an excellent choice.

Fitment Note: Wheel spacers may be required depending on wheel/tire sizing and ride height setting.

This item fits the following BMWs:

Adjustable Rebound & Compression Damping, Front Camber Plates & Stiffer Springs

KW Clubsport coilovers was developed for E36 M3 owners who demand a better handling car when participating in track day events, but also require a setup that could be used every day. The Clubsport was specifically designed for the Nordschleife using track day tires. By using the adjustable camber mounts, the suspension geometry can be adjusted to the requirements of tires and the intended use. The mentioned adjustment options combined with the independently adjustable rebound and compression damping technology allow a suspension setup according to the vehicle load, tire characteristics and different track conditions. KW Clubsport meets every demand regarding a coilover for the usage on the road and the race track.

KW Clubsport suspension kits are independently adjustable in compression and rebound and include high performance racing springs. Racing front camber plates are included for further performance. KW Clubsport guarantees excellent handling, best performance, highest agility and fantastic lap times.

• Height adjustable coilovers - Front - 30-60mm, Rear - 20-45mm
• Performance setup for the racetrack
• Dampers in compression & rebound forces independently adjustable
• Use of high performance linear race springs: Front 685 lbs/inch, Rear Progressive.
• Stainless steel technology "inox-line"
• Includes front camber plate mounts

Fitment note: wheel spacers may be required depending on wheel sizing and offset.

H&R PCS Street Performance Coil Overs are engineered for the street. Designed for the enthusiast who desires a manual shock damping feature, these state-of-the-art inverted mono-tube dampers feature adjustable ride height and precision external adjustment knobs allowing simultaneous adjustment of rebound and compression damping. The bias between rebound and compression is perfectly balanced and has been designed by H&R engineers to eliminate any undesirable settings and guesswork. Unlike traditional twin-tube shock absorbers, H&Rs mono-tube gas shock absorbers eliminate foaming of the damper oil even under extreme conditions and are lighter weight which reduces un-sprung weight.

H&R PCS Street Performance Coil Overs for E36 3 series will provide a lowering range of approximately 1.0 to 1.9 inches front and 1.0 to 1.6 inches rear. Lowering your BMW with H&R improves handling and provides that cool H&R stance.

These adjustable rear links are only required when using sway bar / swaybars with a suspension with a very low ride height, where it may be necessary to adjust the length of the end links for proper sway bar clearance from the drive axles or other suspension components. These suspensions are usually found only on race cars but this may also apply to street cars with sport springs/sport coil overs that are lowered a lot. On most street cars lowered 1.5" or less, the stock links will be fine.

These end links feature a Heim joint, which allows enough lateral movement when disconnected to adjust the length of the link without removing the entire link from the car. This is particularly helpful when eliminating or adjusting preload while tuning the suspension. Similar links without this joint, can't be adjusted without totally removing the link from the car.

Built-in grease fittings allow for occasional lube, and a packet of grease is included. These links are sold as a set, and include two end links and hardware for H&R and TMS sway bars (other brands may not need the hardware). 

At their shortest setting they are 2.875" hole to hole and on their longest setting they are 3.5" hole to hole.

*Note: these links will not work with factory or non-adjustable Eibach sway bars.

Here at Turner we understand the importance of an upgrade that will get the results you need on the track and still be tolerable on the drive around town. When it comes to control arms on the track, making them as stiff as you can (usually using solid mounts) is the best way to increase your driving precision by eliminating the deflection of rubber. The next best thing to create a balance would be to stiffen up the control arm with polyurethane, giving you the option of a more stock like feel with 80a or closer to the solid feel with 95a durometers.

When it comes to the E36 chassis you also get the options of choosing a stock centered design or going with the E30 inspired offset bushing to increase castor, further taking advantage of improvd handling. These poly bushings will give your control arms a direct connection between your suspension and the body of the car eliminating the slop felt under take-off and braking so you feel more in control of your vehicle.

This item fits the following BMWs that use a centered-style bushing: 

1984-1991 E30 BMW 318i, 318is, 325, 325e, 325es, 325i, 325is

Our renowned TMS adjustable front sway bar / swaybar links for BMWs are now available in custom lengths, making them easy to order for any aftermarket or custom suspension setups. Simply measure for your ideal link length, and order the links with the best length range (below). Each sway bar link has a 10mm diameter mounting pin/stud, which is the typical factory/stock size for a universal fitment. These are sold by the pair, and each set includes two matching sway bar end links.

These end links offer the quiet operation and long life of "stock" BMW end links, but with the strength and adjustability of rod-end style sway bar links. These sway bar links can be used on a wide variety of BMWs and aftermarket BMW suspensions. When measuring, please consider that the length ranges of our Custom Adjustable end links are measured from the center to center on the end link mounting stud / pin, as shown in our diagram.

Note for E9X M3: the unique mounting on the M3 strut requires a set of our adapter seats (#TSU9912AF9). You can add them with your links from the menu below.
