I am building a E36 for track days ( now ) and IT in the future, I want to buy parts now that will work when I go full IT, what suggestions for shock / spring packages ?? This car will NOT be used on the street anymore...
 
Ground Control has everything you need. Their advanced design shocks are awesome.
 
I have used GC on VW race cars in the past and had good luck, I like the shocks but did not know if they were the hot ticket for BMWs
who makes good bars for these cars and is it legal to use the M3 style front strut that the bar mounts to?

No, but you can weld the little tabs on to the 325i struts and use the M3 style bar. Ground Control sells the mounting tabs
 
actually, if you go ground control, they sell a new strut housing which is cut down to fit the a/d dampers. it already has the sway bar tab on it. gc also sells a hollow front sway bar. call james at bimmerworld or chuck at cssmotorsports. either one of them can sell you the entire gc/ad kit which includes all the bearings, bushings, dampers, struts, sway bar, adjustable mounts, etc. just check the "i want it all" box on the order form...

be aware though if you need it soon, there is a month or so wait currently to get the parts.
