    Garagistic E30 front strut bars (M42 e30 compatible)

    Hello!

    Update: The pre-order is now over. However we still carry this strut bar in stock at all times!
    GARAGISTIC E30 STRUT BAR Want an affordable way to dominating turns? Having a front E30 strut bar improves cornering by reducing chassis flex on corners. 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





    Best when paired with our front x brace shown below. Pm us for a package deal on both the strut bar and the x brace.




    M42 people!

    We tested this version of the bar on three m42 cars. One cleared manifold. It touched the manifold on another. The last car had frame damage so the bar did not fit at all. The two that it bolted onto had diffrent age motor mounts which could be why there is a variance. So that is inconclusive.

    But we have a solution. We will be making an m42 specific bar. It can be found below.

    Below is the picture where it barely clears.

      We would need to get a m42 car into the shop to test it. We tested on an m60, ls1, m20 and m50. It should but we would like to check before saying yes.

        I'm interested but I have an m42 though. If you can't find a m42 car to test on let me know, I'm an hour from Huntington.

                        Interested in the X brace. Is there a separate Group Buy for those? Keep up the good work. Also, when you guys say "stock" sway bar can you elaborate because they are not all the same size. My vert has a 21mm? sway bar while the ST's on my M3 are 22mm.
