It looks like the front is now a triple rate dual stack design like the rears on the regular kit. I talked to the guys at Evolve and they speak very highly of the new Hybrid setup especially on CS/CSL's. I am going to give them a shot, but it will be a couple weeks before I get them on. Also have the CSL engine/trans mounts coming, Dinan front monoballs, and G83 Vert braces. I'm on the fence about also doing rear toe/traction links. Sometimes the rear can feel a bit "floaty" during hard transitions. I'm just worried about NVH with so many solid mounts.

Did you notice any difference or changes after adding the G83 braces?

Just about $2,500 shipped which isn’t far off a set of Ohlin R&T. I agree and I am still not sure why I chose this route 😂. I think the CS has different dampers and tuning from the factory so I felt “bad” just chucking them but I hope I don’t regret my decision. If it doesn’t work out to my liking I’ll sell them and go big with a set of KW V4’s

I actually haven’t installed them yet. I’ll be doing it at the same time as everything else so it will be hard to hone in on just the braces. I know it was a fairly popular mod on the e92/e93 and previous gen’s. In the past adding chassis braces on my other cars has always helped without any negatives. I like the fact that BMW designed it so it should add meaningful torsional rigidity to the rear.

I know the M Perf kit is good too but the drop is limited--- what about H&R VTF? I dont see that its applicable for the CS but KW is. Yet the regular H&R springs are available for the CS but carry the same part number for the Non CS X drive LOL... fucking H&R

Sure, this is the diagram and part list I used to base the order off. https://parts.bmwmonterey.com/a/BMW_...r/33_2838.html
You would need #6 V brace - Part# 33328746035, #7 - Cross Brace - Part# 33329882335, (2) #5 Hex bolts - Part# 07149229516 to connect the V Brace to the stock L& R stiffening plate, and (1) #8 Hex bolt - Part# 07119908280 to connect the Cross brace to the V Brace. The only X factor is the diagram doesn't show how the #7 Cross Brace bolts onto the chassis. It looks like it has (4) mounting points that will probably use another (4) #8 Hex bolts but I can't say for sure until the shop gets in on the lift for install. If you get to it first please let us know |

Thanks, outside of the different part numbers my uneducated guess is different spring and damper rates for the CS. This is based on short driving time in the CS vs my X drive experiences over the past 2 plus years on the same roads, speeds, and M settings. The CS is more taut and has less compression and rebound. (stock vs stock)

BMWs stock ride height is just idiotic, there’s no other way to put it. Not a single other German automaker sets up their flagship performance cars like this.
Ultimately, the reason is probably because they’re trying to sell you the M Performance HAS for another 2k if you want it lower.
