View Full Version : Installed Dinan Tower Strut Bar HSRX5 01-10-2005, 09:01 PM My first Mod! VADER13 01-10-2005, 10:47 PM very clean! BigFish 01-11-2005, 04:55 PM can you feel a difference? Looks Nice! BigFish HSRX5 01-12-2005, 12:03 AM I thought that it wouldn't do anything and that it just looked cool but I was wrong. The car handels waaay better around curves and the turning radius is tighter... http://www.dinanbmw.com/ Part #: D180-0530 Price: $599.00 Labor Units: 7.5 Point Value: 2 The strong yet lightweight CNC machined aluminum strut tower brace improves rigidity at the strut towers for sharper handling and improved steering response. Manufactured from 6061-T6 aluminum, the surface features precision-machined ribs over extremely durable textured black powder coating. The cosmetic design of the strut brace is consistent with the engine covers for a look that shouts “high performance”, while appearing as if it might have come from the factory. BigFish 01-12-2005, 02:12 PM When you state it has a tighter turning radius, do you think this is the benefit of less flex on the chassis while negotiating a turn? Seems odd it would improve handeling in that respect! BigFish HSRX5 01-12-2005, 02:33 PM it's definetly tighter........ VADER13 01-12-2005, 03:42 PM Tower stut bars make a box out of the suspension set up, they complete the top. This allows a tighter radius in most cases... mbanks21 01-12-2005, 06:39 PM Hope you didnt pay $600 for that...
