OK Guys, I would like to know if anyone has this suspension set up:
Fr: Bilstein Sports(HD) with 1 inch lowered springs.
RR: Boge TurboGas with 1 inch lowered springs.
Will this work or are there some things that I should be concerned about?
Any handling issues?
ETC |

Is there a specific reason for mixing the soft rear with the firm front?
Won't that exacerbate the e21s handling quirks?

Main reason is that I can't get Bilsteins for the rear hence the proposed combination. |

Last I heard the Bils for the rear were still available.

not avaliable here. Need to order and event then, don't know when it will arrive.
I have checked buying from Euro or US and the postage cost almost twice the cost of the dampers....... |

By handling quirks, do you mean tail happy? If so, then probably not. To increase oversteer, stiffen the rear, to increase understeer, stiffen the front.
