Reinforcement Kit for BMW E36 (1992-1998) M3

Clear BMW chassis

Please ensure your correct model is selected

BMW subframe reinforcement kits are essential for preventing structural fatigue and failure in high-stress areas of the chassis, particularly in performance-driven and older BMW models. Over time, repeated stress, aggressive driving, and factory design limitations can lead to subframe cracking, metal fatigue, and mounting point failure, compromising handling and safety. Common issues include rear subframe tearing, misalignment, and excessive flex, which can result in clunking noises, poor suspension response, and potential structural damage. Installing a BMW subframe reinforcement kit strengthens weak points, prevents costly repairs, and enhances chassis rigidity for improved stability and longevity. Our selection of premium BMW subframe reinforcement plates and weld-in kits provides a durable, long-term solution, ensuring superior performance and reliability for daily driving and track use.

Here at Turner Motorsport we love our classic Bmw's and are more excited than ever to focus on upgrades for the enthusiasts such as ourselves. With the prices of E36s going up and the unobtainable M3 LTW being just that, unobtainable, we decided to focus on what we have and what everyone else is able to get. It seems by now all of the E36's have been fitted with upgraded suspensions and sway bars which we have a large selection of. We found a missing part to our mission critical performance E36 project and that is the X-brace. Since the LTW is fitted with a factory X-Brace the engineers here at Turner decided to take it a few steps further. Starting with idea of improving structure and handling on the factory x-brace we thought "how could we make it better?” Before we knew it we had full 6061-T6 billet aluminum that would surpass the factory X-Brace soo much that they shouldn't even be classified on the same spectrum.

Our Turner X-Brace starts off with a solid block of 6061-T6 billet aluminum that is machined to precise tolerances, utilizing both factory mounting locations and efficiency. The brace then gets drilled and tapped to fit the modular mounting brackets perfectly before being anodized in the beautiful Turner blue. To finish off the fine details the X-Brace is assembled with zinc-plated hardware for superior corrosion resistance for time to come.
