Will the suspension for my e36 323is be the same as all e36's (325, 328)? Alot of websites have problems distinguishing my car from a 99 323i. Any information would help. Thanks!

Yes. Most e36 suspension is interchangeable.

As propcar posted most of the E36 suspension will fit most any other E36 chassis. There are a few minor changes within the sedan/coupe cars like the front control arms, strut mounts, steering knuckles, steering racks being different on '95 M3s, the MSport suspension and later cars with Bilstein dampers compared most later E36 M3 chassis and the anti-roll bars getting larger over time. But for the most part they are all the same if they are not M3s or did not come with MSports suspension package.

HTH!

Appreciate the help guys. I figure everything was basically the same but didnt want any surprises if I ordered parts for a different e36 for my car and they really were different.
