From M3 to S2000.. need sugestion for a coilover
My last s2k was MK 2000 red.
Last year, I traded in my s2k for a more torquy BMW M3.
Yes. the M3 is a very very good car... But. I've decided to go back to MK05 s2k becauase it lacked some... thing.. very... important.
I had spoon coilvers and the x-brace and spoon stabilizer sets for occasional track use and was very satisfied.
Now, I'm going back to s2k, I wanted to go back to my old setting only to find that
spoon does not have the coilovers that I use to used to use for my MK00.
So...
my question is this.
What coilovers do you recommend for occational track use.
I'm considerding comtech x-brace, stabilizers and rear brace.
May be I'll just use the comptech lowering spring.
Any suggestions?

turboelan, I went thru the M3 to S2K thing. I gave my sister my M3 03' (she took over payments) during my divorce. Instead of going back to it, I went with an S2.
I'm still stock, but I'd agree with Emil. Those are great coilovers for occational track use.
I'm looking at the Ohlins for my next setup.

I had Tein CS's for quite some time, wasn't really that impressed. This past week I installed a set of Buddy Club Race Specs - put about 100 miles on them so far & everything feels nice! 
A local member who tracks his vehicle says he has had Buddy Clubs and had the GC/Koni Setup. He stated for tracking he would recommend the GC/Koni Setup.
