Anyone knows what this is?? Apparently, it can be fitted on E9x cars, seems like a strut bar, camber arm or some under chassis brace.

Any ideas?

Re: Anyone knows? Something for E9x people!

"ボディダンパー" translates to "Body Damper"...

From my very limited and rusty knowledge of Japanese, it's some kinda underbody damper that is supposed to reduce transmission of vibration and improve ride comfort...

Did a quick search and you can see where it is mounted here:

Re: Anyone knows? Something for E9x people!

looks interesting!

do you intend to do a group buy for this?

apparently they have it for the e46 too!

the studie guys are able to communicate in english. they are quite big in the US modding scene.

let me try to send them an email (as soon as i find out how)...
 
Re: Anyone knows? Something for E9x people!

From the quick search earlier, most turned up 'Yamaha' or 'Cox' body damper. Maybe made by Yamaha and model name is Cox? Can them to clarify if you email them....

Wah... the sports seats in saddle brown damn nice.

Works on the same principle as a underbody cross brace? They have it for E46 M and non-M cars, E87, E9x cars... works out to around S$1,500.... ouch

Re: Anyone knows? Something for E9x people!

the reply i just got...

had a tough time deciphering what he was trying to say, but here goes...

"thanks for the inquiry. we cater only to the domestic market, but if you make a mass order, we will try to accommodate.

"however, pls be informed that you will need to make payment in advance. hope you understand.

"for the e9x, the COX bodydamper is an easy fit. however for the e46, some modification is needed, and only for the face-lifted version.

"pls let us know the quantity you wish to order, so we can provide you with an estimate.

"Best Regards. Hajime Inomata Studie AG."

now, if somebody can just tell me what the hell a 'body damper' is...
 
Re: Anyone knows? Something for E9x people!

okie. will ask him. hope he will be able to explain in detail.
 
Re: Anyone knows? Something for E9x people!

it's a chasiss brace.

to keep the midsection of the car from flexing under severe stress, e.g. cornering on the track.

if i read his translation correctly...
 
Re: Anyone knows? Something for E9x people!

Think that is what Wilson is selling too, the Hotchkis whatchamacallit chassis brace! :)
 
Re: Anyone knows? Something for E9x people!

wilson's stuff looks more sturdy leh.

this one like 2 adjustable metal rods fastened to the sides. in the middle some more.

think the cross braces make more sense.
