Suspension Madness lower stress bar
#26
lower and upper brace
YES MASON ENG designs and sells in quantity to MINI MADNESS and IRELAND ENG, PRO MINI
He also will sell to the individual car owners
It makes sense when you deal directly with the source ,no back orders , stock on hand, and on a technical level, he can share you the material alloy,weld filler wire alloy and other nuances that the re seller hot air merchants are not privy to

So, I'm in the process of moving forward with my suspension upgrade. I have the M7 strut bar and plates (for now), the cabrio bars, and have the Madness under strut trapezoid on order. I am contemplating the 22m rear strut bar from Madness, as well as their progressive rate springs.
Anyone have any thoughts on my plans. I'm open to all suggestions... Thanks.

I have not found a mid bar sold by anyone in the US. Only by GTT in UK.
The M7 USS contains a small mid bar as part of the set. Maybe they will sell the mid bar separately. However the M7 is only a 2 hole mounted bar compared to the 4 hole mounted GTT bar.
My son was going to make some 4 hole mid bars for me but found out that to make the 4 hole bar would take a CNC machine larger than he had access to.
I keep hoping that someone in the US will take on the project to make some mid bars.

For chassis bracing you need to check out the X brace. It is the best brace for the R53 available, just ask anyone that has one on their car and they tell you how much difference it made.
As for rear sway bars go for the Hsport Comp or 19mm bar. They are by far the best sway bars for the MINI.
If your trying to decide between the two you'll be more handling improvement out of the rear sway bar.

So I finished my suspension upgrades and am very satisfied. I did the TSW/WMW springs, the H-Sport 19mm rear bar, Madness understrut bar, Cabrio braces and the M7 strut bar and plates...
