which is why I can't work out why people try to make their GTST's into R copies or try to make them faster.

My saying is that if you want a faster car , buy one from the manufacturer. Usually works out cheaper in the long run.

I assume you are talking about the brace between the shock mounts under the bonnet and not the sway bars under the car.

Strut braces work if they are attached to the suspension ( ie Macpherson strut style. )

The lines are double wishbone and the mount you are attaching to is not a stressed member of the car.Also unless it is straight and substantially thick , it will flex anyway.

I think you would find if you did an MC type day with the bar on and off , the difference would be marginal.

But hey , it looks cool and I have em on my car ( cos they came with it )

ken - hmmm everything you say sounds right.. but it still seemed to make a difference... maybe it is all in my head... but as you said - they look cool.. hehehe :(

paul - springs will be on the cards definitely.. was talking to no_respect tonight when i picked up the brace - his is about the right height (only about an inch lower than mine) and he said that he still retained a firm but comfy ride... he also said they're pretty damn easy to fit?

    • Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
