    Strut Bars

    I'm looking at getting a front strut bar for my car and was wondering what opionions you guys have on them. The 2 that I'm looking at right now are Sparco and Racing Dynamics. I was wondering what other ones are out there that are good. Does ACS or Dinan make them for E30s? If so where can I find them for sale.

          Sparco. Maybe it's just me but I wouldn't buy an aluminum strut brace.

              Sparco. Got mine for $100 shipped. Bastard Jamie saved $5 over me. Whatever.

              Cheap. Works great. Improves handling. Looks good.

                  ACS Strut Bar

                  Good luck finding one though. I had an extra last year but it went real quick on ebay.

                        Anyone want to trade a (hopefully new) Sparco bar for a Racing Dynamics?

                            Sparco!

                            I got my Sparco from the group buy. I wouldn't buy an aluminum or a hinged strut bar. that completely ruins everything a strut bar is supposed to be accomplishing.
