I am a 75-year old mechanical klutz, and I was able to install the NM Engineering Upper Stress Bar in my 2011 R55 Clubman in about 45 minutes. It is superbly made, fits perfectly, and it really improved the handling of my car.

Advantages: Well made
Easy installation
Greatly improves handling

Disadvantages: None!

Details

NM Engineering’s Upper Tie-Bar is designed to reinforce the already stellar MINI Cooper chassis. Installation reduces fore and aft, as well as side-to-side chassis flex during spirited driving, which helps to eliminate unwanted geometry/alignment change. This results in better steering response and better handling. Attention to detail and performance are NM Engineering’s forte and this part does not disappoint. The 6061-T6 aluminum mounting pads will eliminate strut tower “mushrooming” be reinforcing the upper mount and is attached to mounts studs with shouldered long-reach nuts to make sure that the bar and front suspension is secured by more than just a few threads. In addition, when you look at the underside of the pads, you will notice two machined pocket that accommodate the upper strut bearing locator pin on either side while concealing it from view. Finally, the simplest, yet most overlooked feature may be the twin mounting bolts on each side that attach the bar to the mounting pads. Most others use a single bolt to secure each side of the bar to the mounting pads. The problem with that, is no matter how tight you cinch that bolt, the bar can still pivot at that point rendering them ineffective against chassis flex. This is a fantastic product brought to you from Neuspeed which is market leader in Audi/VW and other import tuning since the mid 70's. The NM Engineering brand brings with it many years of solid experience in European tuning as well as top notch support NM Billet Tie-Bar clears factory airbox as well as NM's Hi-Flow Induction Kit.

Customers' comments

I have purchased a short antenna, JCW black grill trim, and the magnetic grill badge mount kit all from Outmotoring. Speed and ease of ordering was fantastic. Couldn't be happier. Will always look to outmotoring first when ordering any parts.
Colin Baker

Placed several orders with OutMotoring, F56 JCW Pro parts, front bumper kit for MINI GP R53. Shipping is always fast and all items arrived perfectly. Very happy and will continue ordering all my MINI needs from OM :)
Andres Ricardo Benitez

One of the best providers for Mini needs. I easily found the replacement headlight trim and 3rd brake lite and shipping was fast. The light was damaged and they quickly sent a replacement.

Thank you for the great customer service!
