bmw performance strut bar

imageautodetail · 11-23-2011, 06:47 AM

what is the reason this strut bar doesnt fit 335s, is it just the air box

jaybird124 · 11-23-2011, 09:34 AM

Yes. M3 Brace is better anyway.

ECSTuning · 11-23-2011, 09:47 AM

^correct. And I agree the M3 brace is the way to go. It is a bolt on easy to do and effective option for the 335.

Enjoy the hell out of my M3 brace...install was okay (been awhile since I have put anything on a car) esp. a brand new one the install freaked me out w/ the cowl ha ha

Is the OEM M3 brace will fit 328?

Yes, the OEM M3 brace will fit the 328 E90. As well as the BMW Performance CF brace and our in house strut brace.

Welcome to the large information hub where people are always going to want to inquire, if they choose to "jack" your thread for pretty much the same purpose by all means don't get your panties in a bunch.

panties are wadless, thought it was funny, the reason i ask about the performance bar is that there are a few floating around for less than 150, i am aware that the m brace kit is a really good option but wanted to see if the 125 dollar option would fit...continue on talking about how good the m kit is...lol

What do you gain with this other than rigidity? Can ppl feel a difference if not tracking?

Will a lower cost brace be all you need?

Is it the high speed corner and keeping the wheel geometry in tact that this thing does?

Can anybody review the cars feel before and after the m3 brace pls

I don't think so, but I had the M3 brace installed at the same time as M3 front control arms. I just got it so I could adjust my Koni struts easily. My tech said he didn't think it's valuable if not tracking..
