thanks to you and Mobbin for sharing!
I had seen those rates posted for the non-EDC PSS10 kit, but with folks raving about the ride quality ("my family thought I had gone back to stock" and similar comments) I assumed the EDC version must be softer. 500 lb/in on the front will give a ride frequency a bit over 2Hz - tolerable on the street yes but definitely not something you'd mistake for the stock 1.3Hz-ish ride frequency. Of course the effective ride stiffness will be determined by differential rate at the static ride height. the Vorschlag link was a good read too, thanks for that.

Guys, quite sad to relay this news but I just found out that the ship date on my Bilstein Damptronics kit just changed to mid-July. I know many folks were ordering these and also looking forward to my review, I'm sorry to dissapoint. I'm asking if Bilstein might offer me their Clubsport kit at a discount given the hiccup here, will report back on where I end up.
I'm also curious, what other kits are folks considering for street/track use?

The two B12 orders I have placed are tentative for June. As you see from Mobbin's experience, anyone saying they can get them 'soon' but that don't have them in hand are basically lying |

I considered the Clubsports, but this unknown lead time sealed the deal on MCS, they arrive tomorrow after about a 3 week lead time plus a week of ground shipping.

Maybe this will be a good excuse for me to stop messing with the car and just get out to the track and drive. Even a stock M3 on worn out shocks is a hoot to ride hard

Happy to share my limited experience.
Install was incredibly easy and straight forward. All EDC connections fit as stock, there were included extensions but I did not see the need to use them. First drive, just took it out for a casual cruise, nothing wild. Comfort mode feels similar to stock, possibly even a little softer. Sport mode is a nice step up from stock sport mode and my mode of choice for just rolling around. Sport+ is in my opinion a solid setup for track/autox. A little soft, but with additional suspension upgrades (sway bars, bushing, etc) a superb confidence inspiring setup. I have done some harder driving and my opinion stays the same. Definitely a good, maybe perfect balance for a DD/ocassional track duty M///. Happy to elaborate if anyone wants more info. Cheers, Nate Last edited by N8bmw; 05-17-2018 at 12:36 PM.. |
