WTB used M3 style strut brace

[rzerob]

I would like to buy a used M3 style strut brace. I don't care if it is in bad looking shape. As long as it is not bent or broken. I plan on powder coating it. Let me know if you have anything and if you could send me pics with price. Shipped to 17066 PA. Thanks

What is a M3 style strut brace?

Don't all M3s coming with a strut brace since they are race cars?

I am not fully fluent in E30 but as far as my knowledge the E30 M3 came stock with a strut brace. Basic design. That is the style(M3 style)strut brace I am looking for. I don't want one that has added bends and brackets. Just a standard strut brace(M3 style or basic design). Sorry for not explaining better.

what

[MR 325]

Your information is incorrect. No E30 came with a strut brace.

Most simplistic would be a Sparco

LOL, no cars came with a strut brace. They were all added later.

ha, I was joking. no strut original strut brace. the most common is sparco then maybe BMP.

Thanks for the info, it's good to know. Every E30 M3 I saw had a strut brace and most of them had a red standard style strut brace. So I assumed (I know the saying for assuming) It was a stock option. So does anyone have one for sale? Price? Shipping to 17066 PA? Thanks for the responses sorry for my misinformation, still learning about E30's.

If its red, its most likely a sparco

What?

[rzerob]

That's it.

The reason it's so popular is because a while back PhD Gustave Stroes did an in depth analysis on strut braces and found the Sparco design to be the best. It just so happens to be the cheapest too at around $100 while others were charging $185 + I think Racing Dynamics wanted close to $300 for theirs back in the day. At that price, it's a no brainer.

Thanks to everyone I found exactly what I was looking for, new for $120.00 free shipping. I will give this ad a week, I would hate to powder coat a brand new one. Anyone have a used Sparco strut brace? Or know where I can get one cheaper?
