I'm looking for a 1 piece strut tower brace for my E34 M5 & have found the Ultra Racing one sold on EBay from Malaysia & the HM one from the US. Has anyone here tried the UR piece?

Thanks.

I have the Ultra Racing brace. At first mockup, it appeared clearance would be an issue, but once the bolts are tensioned it fit just fine. There's a bit of bend in the bar under tension to clear the throttle linkage. I don't know how much it helps, but it looks cool!

According to Darjac Racing there is one strut brace which does make a difference ... more noticed at places like the Ring ... on the road is, I agree, a moot point at best. This particular strut brace is no longer manufactured (came from the USA) but Darjac Racing would consider a run if they received a block order (they have the measurements, ect)

Would that be the Racing Dynamics strut brace , Ralph ?

How is old Faz , we don't tend to hear much from him nowadays ?

Racing Dynamics is still produced I believe and if not the Cosmos racing one is identical. I'm very interested in the Strong Strut although if I could find an M5 specific Hartge bar I would get that.

I had a strong strut on my US car, it was a pretty nice piece. Clearance between it and the plenum was very close, if you have weak motor mounts you will get some contact!
