Installed E93 Sway bar

Cuz5150 · 06-21-2010, 03:08 PM

I can not believe that BMW deprived us 135i owners like that

The sway does make a difference, the car corners flatter, and rolls less, in everyday spirit/street driving....
The install was easy, took me more time chasing down the 18 screws that hold up the engine bay cover......FTL!!
IMHO, everyone should have this E93 sway bar, pound for pound, dollar for dollar the best suspension mod...........

Hell yes Cuz, bushings and all. Got everything from Tischer for abouts $205

Everything hooks right up or do you have to do any adjustments? I will do this as soon as I get mine.

The car "rides" the same. Remember i changed the sway bar. When making turns the car stays flatter, does not roll/pitch/lean as much. Its really noticeable when going up exit rams, or jug handles(NJ speak) Now, you can carry more speed in to any turn

Corny: but some Bmw "Joy" has been injected.

Is the E93 front sway bar package from HPA same as what you had done?

Sorry if I missed it but are you still using the stock endlinks or aftermarkets? Ive heard some bad things about messing with diff links other than stock

Id like to possibly do a front sway, but im not sure. Ideally id like to do the front sway with the sexier bushings and some FSD's, dont think id wanna lower the car any, i dunno

All those dunno type comments mean the either the E92 or E93 front sway would be perfect for you! Seriously they aren't going to disappoint, as there isn't really 1 downside. Admittedly my upgrade had the sway as the last installed component in a semi-M3 suspension conversion, but it didn't introduce anything unwanted with the rest of the mainly stock setup.

Question to the OP. Is the E93 the only suspension mod you have?
