Certainly how Porsche make their kits for the German market and as BC racing have been making suspension for the Jap market for 10 years plus, yes it's how they do it now also.

Heard about a few bc kits breaking and reliability issues on the evo scene though, no doubt they will do the job, but for how long?

i think it is worth remebering that being involved in a race team doesnt mean that a product is any good (for any manufacturer)

Dont forget alot if manufacturers PAY for their products to be used by some teams and others are supported and subsidised so the a/m scene sees and buys them

The skill is either knowing by experience which is good (which most of us cant do) or alternatively checking out which manufacturers WIN the series repeatedly and dotn always offer the products free to race teams

Also, any thoughts on the Intrax springs? Do they need to be with aftermarket shocks or are they ok with std shocks?

Sorry, site is wrong the Eibach springs aren't suitable for the CSL only the M3, I will change it.

Shimmy is right, sometimes something that is free is not the one to use. We used to run freebie suspension and now pay for Motons for our race cars.

Nitron, Moton, Bilstein. All cool and with warranty.
