I had no issues what so ever with my FSD and eibach mate, the rude was great for comfy driving, I only suggested other options as this is what I was told

I'm just waiting for the ipd rose bush drop links and I have an uprated rear arb on the olive.
The irony is the gul on its b6s and Poly'd everything, meyle drop links, meyle ball joints, subframe inserts, strutbrace and lesjford springs, will never be driven.
At least it's ready for a drive should the occasion arise.

Well I'm not having much luck with the brakes, V50T5 calipers are hard to source and they come in at £320 from Volvo !!
Jamie at PFV suggested 'Black Diamond' discs and pads though I have yet to find a favourable review of these, anyone have/had them ?
Suspension wise I think it may well be the Koni Yellow/Eibach pro kit combination and have found the parts for just over £700 at Larkspeed......
Anything else to change suspension wise, top mounts/spring seats, bolts, bump stops ??
If your running with 302's, just stick with genuine Volvo discs and pads mate.

Bilsteins here and lowered/uprated springs are mentioned - I assumed these were B6's, could be mistaken

//edit just noticed - the eibach springs are cheaper there also

Bilsteins and h&r springs are highly rated on the M3 forums.
