torque spec on strut nuts for 07 Z4MR

Just curious if anyone knew the the torque spec for the 3 top strut nuts for the front struts on a 2007 Z4MR. I had an issue with a clicking sound from front suspension and found it to be the STRONG STRUT strut brace and since removed it entirely but kept the STRONG STRUT firewall braces in place. Thanks in advance.
