Neuspeed NM Eng. Billet Aluminum Tie-Bar For R55/56/57/58/59

Description

Enhance the chassis rigidity and driving precision of your MINI Cooper with the Neuspeed NM Engineering Billet Aluminum Upper Tie-Bar, designed to reduce chassis flex during aggressive driving. This precision-engineered upgrade improves steering response and handling by minimizing unwanted fore-aft and lateral movement in the front suspension mounts, helping to maintain consistent geometry and alignment even under high cornering loads.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the NM Tie-Bar features 6061-T6 billet aluminum mounting pads that reinforce the upper strut mounts, preventing the common issue of mount "mushrooming" under stress. The mounting pads attach to the strut tower studs using shouldered, long-reach nuts to ensure a solid connection, securing the tie-bar and suspension with significantly more thread engagement than typical alternatives.

A unique feature of the NM Engineering Tie-Bar is the dual-bolt mounting system on each side that firmly clamps the bar to the mounting pads. Unlike competitors who use a single bolt per side—allowing potential pivoting and reduced effectiveness—the twin bolts prevent any unwanted movement, ensuring the bar reliably resists chassis flex and contributes to a sharper, more confident driving experience.

Additionally, the underside of the mounting pads includes machined pockets to accommodate the upper strut bearing locator pins, providing a clean installation that conceals these components from view while maintaining functionality.

This tie-bar is fully compatible with the factory airbox as well as Neuspeed’s Hi-Flow Induction Kits for the MINI Cooper S and John Cooper Works models. For non-S models, installation requires aftermarket intake systems that sit lower than the factory airbox to ensure proper clearance.

Key Features:

  • Reduces Front Chassis Flex – Minimizes fore-aft and side-to-side movement for improved suspension geometry stability.

  • 6061-T6 Billet Aluminum Mounting Pads – Strengthen the upper strut mounts and prevent deformation.

  • Twin Bolt Mounting per Side – Prevents pivoting and ensures maximum rigidity.

  • Machined Pockets for Strut Bearing Locators – Conceals components cleanly without interfering with function.

  • Compatible with Factory and NM Hi-Flow Airboxes – Fits factory airbox and Neuspeed Hi-Flow Induction Kits for Cooper S and JCW.

  • Durable and Lightweight Construction – Improves performance without adding unnecessary weight.

  • Made for R55/56/57/58/59 MINI Cooper Models – Engineered specifically to fit these chassis with precision.
