E30 Strut Bar Worth It

Although not as efficient as a front strut bar adding this rear strut bar will also help retain some rigidity that the e30 chassis desperately needs.

E30 strut bar worth it.

Strut bars will make your car predictable especially when driving fast around corners. You will be able to tell what direction the car will take on every turn. Though i have heard horror stories about uuc build quality specifically brand new parts breaking during track events but i believe that the strut bar is a simple enough thing that it can be trusted not to break. Strut bars acts like a suspension bridge by absorbing the tension the chassis is undergoing therefore reducing the force of compression on the body of the car.

This will also help prevent shock tower flex. Having a front e30 strut bar improves cornering by reducing chassis flex on corners and allows for noticeable improvements in your e30s cornering front end grip. Each strut brace is hand made and precisely crafted to measure between the brace towers on your vehicle because after 30 years no e30 has remained the same. Hindsight is always 20 20.

Bmw e30 front strut bar. E39 front strut bar produced between 1995 2003. E34 front strut bar produced between 1987 1996. E46 front rear strut bar.

E36 front rear strut bar produced between 1990 2000. A strut bar or any other structural member provides strength almost exclusively in this tension compression range and most e30 e36 e46 bmws exhibit movement purely laterally across the strut towers as our measurements reflect. It is designed to fit all engines fitted to the e30 ix and also fits m50 m52 m54 s54 replacements. Your e30 deforms a little bit as lateral forces act upon it by putting a well engineered strut bar between the strut towers it makes it harder for your car s strut towers to move.

This bar has a bracket to reroute cruise control which shows some thoughtful design. Material weight price steel.
