e93 m3 front sway install

so friday i got around to installing the e93 front sway. install was easy as i followed the diy on the forum. i cant say i feel that much of a difference on the street. i also have koni yellows, bmwps yellow springs, and whiteline rear subframe inserts. i was supposed to go to the track yesterday but had to cancel.

what i did notice though is when turning right under compression while pushing it a little on the clover leafs i hear a slight rubbing on the driver side front. i cant figure out where this could be coming from, almost sounds like the front driver tire rubbing on something. i never had this before and i did a track day just last month. i know i have to put it up on ramps and take a look. i really hate all taking off the belly pan, i had one on my vw but it literally had like half the screws.

just wondering if anyone else has experienced this or has any insight or helpful hints.

i also gotta say without all the diy's i couldn't have done my dp's, rear suspension, rsfb, walnut blasting, fmic, cp, alpine upgrade, brakes, jb4 or anything. god bless the people who take the time to write up all these diys.

e93 m3 front sway install

What endlinks came with the bar? are they adjustable ? I have heard of those rubbing on the tie-rods, but don't know if it was on a E93 or not...

After installing the E93 M3 bar on my 2011 stock M-Sport suspension, I had no issues. I did some Auto-X with the car but never a track day, there it seemed to help, I could tell turn in was crisper. On the street Most notable, was the rear no longer wandered when changing lanes under hard acceleration, the rear felt very settled.
