Gents,

Am considering ditching the rear subframe this year and opting for a rear beam. What are the pros/cons of this and who's/which beam is best?
Thanks
Andy

It depends what you want from the beam , cheapness. longivity, exclusivity,adjustability, aftersales service , bling ,
all of the above are available from one suplier or another,

wouild you rather buy a beam form a supplier that simply buys them in and retails them out or would you like to think you were dealing with the person who actually set too and fashioned it, someone who could answer any technical queries should any arise,

apart from Carls beams (which are obviously the tits), the TDK one looks good albeit a bit on the heavy side.

they would be the two I would consider.

Points taken gents. Ive heard that some can be difficult to fit on the later MPI bodies any truth in this?? Carl, my main thoughts for the rear beam were to lose weight and also get better control over the suspension set up.
Thanks

I've an MPI shell, I can't really see any reason why the beam would be any harder to fit on that versus any other Mini shell?

If you are serious about losing weight from the car then there is only one choice.
