We are currently near to completion on a massive M5 conversion job including CA supercharger for a Doctor client, we will be releasing details and images soon, suffice for now to say almost every single system on the car has been changed, I think only the roof, doors, hood and seats have been left untouched !
On the suspension we have worked closely over last three months with our favourite coilover manufacturer, UK based Nitron, to develop the first ever kit for the E39 M5 (same we did for Z4M and soon to do for the E60 M5 also). This kit is now finished and available exclusively through CA Automotive.
Nitron is simply fantastic, excellent build quality and even better performance, with the EASIEST and MOST POSITIVE damper adjustment process both front and rear of anything on the market, you are never in doubt you have "clicked" to the next setting.
All 4 of our own cars here run Nitron as preference over the many other kits we have tried ( KW, PSS9 / 10, etc) ...we are not by any means saying these other kits were bad, far from it, but Nitron is better in almost every single way.
Theer are 4 specifications of kits to choose from, allowing perfect choice for your particluar requirements. Kits are also customisable to your particular specs as may be required.
Please see more details on our website at CA: NITRON COILOVER SUSPENSION.
We will soon be posting images of this system on the car, meanwhile here are some generic images and also of the system on my E60 545i. Also an image of Joel Newmans Z3M ( writer performance BMW magazine) with Nitrons ( taken couple hours after install, we later lowered the ride further).
These kits are not cheap...prices on the E39 M5 range from £1500.00 to £3400.00 gbp; but as always you get what you pay for.
