when I got the car more than a year ago, I looked at potential mods and saw the strut brace one too, for sure
- I didn't felt that I needed one, not going on the track etc.
this changed since then, as many times, when driving on bumpy roads, layered with smaller/bigger potholes all over the place, I felt myself in danger - tyres start to make jumps, car going into limbo, not good at all, even at lower speeds
too many roads are in bad shape around here, and I started to hate this daily feeling
learning earlier how the strut brace does its job, I figured it might help with these roads, not only with cornering and potentially I could feel safer ...perhaps it could also save suspensions a bit (distributing forces from one strut to the other, decreasing the impact the tyre hitting the bump, bla bla)
then I saw early this month a good promotion on the Ultra Racing front brace https://ultraracingeurope.com/bmw-z...-2539.html?___store=ultraracingeurope_english, decided to give it a try
arrived this week, put it on today and went back to these bad roads to test this thing
the experience went way over my expectations: I felt safe and had to speed up (a lot) to feel it even more
it did help with cornering as well as advertised (but not believed so much
)
I enjoyed the car so much again, good stuff
