ECS Exact-Fit stainless reinforced brake lines provide more confident and dependable stopping by maintaining consistent brake pressure, long lasting corrosion resistance, and increased protection from failure. Even when new, factory style fabric mesh lined rubber hoses are prone to expansion under the pressure of hard braking, whether it be highway panic stops or threshold braking at the track. Our lines are braided with stainless steel mesh, affording expansion resistance. This resistance to expansion creates a firmer pedal, and more direct pedal feel.

A frequent dilemma when fitting an upgraded seat belt to track-prepared street cars is how to balance the needs of daily driving with the demands of performance driving. A dedicated track-day setup is typically impractical, while running without a substantial harness forces the driver to use the steering wheel to hold themselves in place. Schroth Racing Quick Fit Harnesses are fully reversible and anchor to the factory seat belt pre-tensioner, allowing the airbags to deploy as the BMW engineers intended. Both left (driver) and right (passenger) harnesses are available.

The E9X M3 is essentially a track-ready production car. However, even the daily driver suffers from heat soak due to insufficient oil cooling. Heat is any engine's largest enemy. The premature thermal breakdown of motor oil alters viscosity and accelerates degradation. Higher internal temperatures can also restrict power output significantly. ECS now offers the highly effective, race-ready VF Engineering Oil Cooler for the E9X BMW M3. Heat exchange is substantially increased by using a more dense bar and plate design, better meeting the demands of performance driving.

Give your E90 an aggressive M3 look with replica body panels and kits from ECS Tuning. Go all out with our four-piece complete M3 body kit that includes front and rear bumper covers and side skirts.
