shy180 Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 They are back! Strut Braces for: SR Silvia/180sx FRONT (NO CA FRONTS SEE BELOW) CA/SR Silvia/180sx REAR S14 f S15 f R32 f & r R33 front z32 Front JA80 Supra Front Flat price is $85 for one, $150 for two. This includes delivery to you door using Australia Post. The price has risen slightly from last time, unfortunately this is due to a material cost increase and totally beyond my control. COD and pick up are not available. Other braces are NOT available, if and/or when they are i will post, please refrain from asking me if i can get them for your moms mini/lancer/prado etc, i dont mean to be rude but i simply dont have the time to respond to these sorts of emails . Direct deposit is the only form of payment that is quick easy and simple unless you are in melbourne and wish to pay cash. This still requires postage as they are coming down from queensland, and they will be shipped to your door. Please feel free to post all other questions and i will get back to you ASAP. I will send my bank details via email, please feel free to post any other questions. They are $85 for one, or $150for two including delivery Australia Wide!

shy180 Posted June 30, 2004 Author Share Posted June 30, 2004 Sorry to say that rear r33 braces are unavalible This is due to their not having suitable mounting points UNLESS it a GTR in which case it comes with one from the factory I have checked and replied to all my emails greg Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/44326-strut-braces/#findComment-914763 Share on other sites More sharing options...

T0nyGTSt Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 I have a 1995 GTS which did not come with any rear bar. I installed a 1996 S2 GTS/GTR rear bar. Fits fine - looks stock. There's no way an aftermarket bar can't do the same thing? The towers are even thread so you need some plain bolts to fit it. T.

fireball Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 hello just wondering whether u have actually tested and put on an s14 rear strut bar? the s14 rear bar is nothing like an s13 rear bar. it has to attach on , then pops straight up, thru the rear parcel shelf , goes over the rear speakers then drops straight down thru the parcel shelf again to attach on. meaning i would have to cut a small hole in the parcel shelf for it to fit. if the rear bar looks anything like the one in your link , i don't think it will fit as it is curved at the join and doesnt come up high enough above the parcel shelf . i just wanted to double check b4 i order one thx.

shy180 Posted July 9, 2004 Author Share Posted July 9, 2004 UPDATE ***All current orders have been sent out*** heres the bad news.....my current supply is running out and its going to be a few weeks before a consistent supply of braces is avalible again. (just too popular i guess ) could i ask that everyone email BEFORE depositing money to confirm that i can get the braces within a resonable time frame. THE GOOD NEWS more braces are definately coming but this will be a little way away. Please feel free to email me q's and as soon as i know anything....so will you! thanks for your support guys greg Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/44326-strut-braces/#findComment-926458 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tang0 Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 My front brace arrived yesterday, thanks greg, all fitted perfectly ok, and build quality seems quite high for such a reasonably priced brace ... If you are thinking about getting one, dont, just do it ... dont know if its all in my head, but the front end deffinatly does feel tighter, if anything, it makes those power slides feel a little more controlled ... cheers Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/44326-strut-braces/#findComment-931338 Share on other sites More sharing options...

White-R33 Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Any more news on the rear brace for r33 yet? - really keen on one if it's going to be possible in the end...

I've seen them fitted before.. you have to play with the parcel shelf No you don't. Bolts straight in. It is a pain if you're changing batteries or have an amp there as you can see. You need four bolt nuts from Bunnings to install T. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/44326-strut-braces/#findComment-932309 Share on other sites More sharing options...
