    FedEx guy brought me a present...





    This thing better be as great as you guys have it made up to be. :D It's funny how the delivery guy asks me how is the family. I think I've been ordering way too many parts. :shock:

    good choice. You will notice a definate improvement after you get it installed. The hardest thing about my install was having to raise up the car to get the shock towers to spread apart, other than that, pretty easy.

      when mine got installed, it just went right in besides having to mod the cruise control cable position. piece of cake! I haven't gotten to putting the side bolts on yet though, i'll do that when my suspension is getting installed.

        Sparco Summary:

        High Speed Turns = :shock: :crazy: :twisted:

        ...at least that's how mine was. I got mine before installing shocks and springs and appreciated it more afterwards.

            Its a strut tie bar. It helps keep your front end stiff (wait....that didn't come out right).

                Sparco Strut Brace, keeps the strut towers bolted together and apparently really helps in the E30. I'll have my GC setup in the Spring, but I figured stiffening the chassis first is a good idea.

                It's just too damn cold to put it on now. :x

                  why is a stiff chassis good?

                  ;)

                      I got it from Evosport. Good guys, the shipping to Toronto wasn't bad at all either.

                        Ha ha ha, the UPS guy and FedEx guy BOTH know my first name and ask how my wife is eveytime they come. The FedEx guy used to ask what I had ordered for the Bimmer THIS time and how it was coming along.

                            I was thinking the exact same thing

                            Where did you get it from and how much did it end up costing you?
