    Well, the front strut housings on the early 318 are thin for a reason, they didn't have to be thicker or have vented rotors because the m10 is so fricking light. When you put a heavier 24v or m30 engine doesn't it make sense to upgrade the struts and brakes?

      Im going to do the brakes anyways, and a strut brace for the front and back, Would that be enough?
