          Yes it will.

          Also X braces do not add vibration or noise.

              I need to figure out if I have enough clearance with my 24V exhaust.

              Any side shots so I can compare?

                Your vert doesn't occasionally squeak during typical road travel?

                    No pics since my car is currently at the shop for paint, but I am running s52 headers and custom downpipes into stock e30 midsection with no issues. THe back bolt in at the lollipops so if your pipes drop after that shouldn't be an issue.

                    I'll snap some pics when I get the car back.

                            I just bought this, haven't had time to install. Just worried that my ground clearance is too low now. Anyone have any issues?

                                How do you guys jack up the car after the brace blocks the subframe?
