    Will this cross brace work with an S50?

    ^The butt strut or something similar. Unfortunately there are not a lot of people who have one on on an E30 so there isn't much feedback about them. I would prefer to just run stiffer subframe bushings myself due to the loss of ground clearance with a rear bar.

    Many people have an X brace of some type and the feedback is very positive. I have a steel Mason X brace and like it. It was pricey but it made a noticeable difference.

    What brace is made for the rear ?

    I've got one and it is absolutely worth the money.

    Skip the strut brace and get the x brace.

    Definitely made a difference, having owned a vert with and without one now it would be my number one mod for a vert. I have Race Skid one but works same as the rest. Does sit low sooo take care of when you are lowering your car.

    Did you feel a night and day difference? And where did you feel it the most?
