I am looking at it, but for what car is it? I thought it was just sport suspension, but the description says otherwise.
Might want to pm evan@Tischer, he always responds quickly. |

i think thats for the e90. I actually pm'ed tischer if it fits for the e92 but he said it wouldnt fit. A few months ago I saw 2 brochures flying around in this forum:
http://www.bmwinformation.co.uk/1_BM...4/digi-pdf.pdf http://www.e90post.com/forums/showpo...97&postcount=1 i'm still waiting for more info about them, and I believe no one has them installed on a E92 yet. But if its like a stage 2 susp setup for the right price, i'll def. buy it when it comes out.

they do hav the performance package for the e92. i cant speak for tischer, but i went in to buy an e92, they were willing to sell me this e92 w/ the bmw performance suspension and it had like the strut bar and somethin else. but ne wayz, they were gonna sell it to me and i turned it down cuz the car didn't hav CA. so all in all, there is a performance sus for e92, i guess its just not that easy to find. it looks nice tho, but not kw nice

BMW Performance Suspension!
"The long awaited BMW Performance suspension is finishing it's final details! I have been in contact with BMW almost DAILY on this subject, and I finally am able to offer you the kit!!!! Yes, the springs are Yellow as portrayed in the catalogs.
I am currently waiting on the kits to come in, however BMW has changed it up a little. There is no longer one part number for both the sport and non sport-package cars. There are now two different kits depending on what options you have on your car. **VERY IMPORTANT** -- WHEN ORDERING, PROVIDE THE LAST 7 DIGITS OF YOUR VIN (VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER) IN THE ORDER COMMENTS!" **Please allow a week or two to fill back-orders. *** Springs are sold separately Kit includes: - Rear Stabiliser (Not required for Parts Kit # 33 50 0 444 831) - Front Stabiliser - Front McPherson Struts (2) - Rear Shock Absorbers (2) - Bottom Spring Supports (4) - Top Spring Supports (4) - Front Stabiliser arm rubber bearing (2) - Rear Stabiliser arm rubber bearing (not required for kit # 33 50 0 444 831) - Rear auxiliary shock absorber (2) - Front auxiliary shock absorber (2) - Supporting bearings lower section - All fastening pieces Parts needed to order separately - Front Sport Springs (2) - Non-Adjustable - Rear Sport Springs (2) - Non-Adjustable --www.1addicts.com-- Monday Bump

Sold as a kit. Dan@UnitedBMW from www.1addicts.com was able to take a pic of a test kit he finally got:
Remember this specific kit is for the E82/E88s. I havent seen this kit for the E9x yet but I bet it should be available soon. (i hope!)

So what does the kit for the e90 look like? Here's the description on bmwna website:
=================== Performance Suspension -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- With a tighter, sportier feeling and lower suspension setting of 15mm in comparison with series-production vehicles, the inclusion of a BMW Performance control arm with stiffer bushings gives your 3 Series an almost instinctual feel for the road. With adjusted spring rates and bushings, roll is drastically reduced, creating cat-like quickness, increased responsiveness, and stunning agility. Flexing with the motion of your vehicle around even the tightest curves, a BMW Performance control arm means athletic handling, faster turn-ins, and a totally immediate and much more intense reaction to the tarmac. It delivers a perfect compromise between racing car performance and driving comfort. (PN: 33 50 0 429 574) $695.00

I seriously doubt it would be lower than race springs. Maybe only slightly lower than the ZSP spring/shock combo.
