What is the x-brace? Where do I get it?
The "x-brace" is a cross reinforment brace that helps to connect the front crossmember to the front subframe rails. It is stock on all E36 convertibles (including Z3's) and the '95 M3 LTW. Although it was not stock on the E36 coupe, sedans and compacts it does improve chassis rigidity and handling if added... -courtesy of understeer.com
After reading this, I salvaged a x-brace from the junkyard. Unfortunately, it doesn't bolt onto my 96 318ti. The holes in the front subframe are not threaded.... D:
