Copy that, thats what I thought. Reading through the forums today I have come to the conclusion that this would be an awesome deal;

Aha, crazy what you can find at the companys web site eh?
"SPORT (S)
For the performance-minded driver, Bilstein “Sport” shocks deliver absolute mastery of the road surface.
Designed to push a car’s suspension to it’s performance peak, these shocks are well suited for use with special springs, antisway
bars or other suspension upgrades.
HEAVY DUTY (HD)
For most vehicles including full-size sedans, SUVs and trucks. These shocks provide improved handling and stability without
sacrificing ride comfort. They offer super damping ability that makes them ideal for heavy hauling for occasional off-road use,
while maintaining an exceptional “street” ride."
I think the setup that I posted a link to is perfect for me. I'm not gonna be racing the damn thing, she's my daily driver. I just want a stiffer, sportier feel.

http://www.turnermotorsport.com/html/subcategory_detail.asp?modelcode=E30&subcat_id=90 H&R, but a good company to deal with.. I like them, anyways.
Too bad we don't own E36... so many choices.

Now I need to get ahold of all the urethane suspension bushings. I'll do all of it at once. Now it's time to go pull my blower motor and see why it suddenly got loud as hell this morning. I'm suspecting a cracked blade.
So I talked to a shop here in Charleston called European Road Racing. They only work on european cars. I told them how they're are a lot of squeaks from the rear of the car. He asked if it was a convertible, (it is) and said those are notorious for the rear shock mounts going bad. Makes sense, the convertibles are heavier. I also asked him about urethane bushings. He did not recommend using the urethane bushings on a street car. He said they're great for the track but they need replacing like every six months.
I pulled the blower motor and sure enough one of the fans was cracked. Wasn't repairable. Went to the junkyard and picked one up. Put her in. Only worked on full blast. I guess I hit the resistors putting it back in. I took the cover back off and played with it a bit, looked for obvious problems, didn't see anything. Turned it on #1 to start checking voltage and voila, it worked! Just put the cover back on and good to go.
