i currently have the jjr (just crap racing) front and rear strut braces on my car and i wantr to change them to something good.

now i have a cusco rear one on the way but for the front i want one of those big f**k off thick ones like u see on gtr's but i cannot find one anywhere i know that it wont clear the plenum but i have a plazma man going on soon so not rally worried about that

you do realise you will probably see no difference at all when you're actually driving the car?

I'd say he would, but I think this is a case of form over function.

Get a price to get one fabbed up....it is after all....just a brace.

You've got the JJ one to go off as a template anyway. Just a thought. At least then you'd have one of a kind

sounds like a good idea to get one made up.

the jj one is so shit it touches the top of the plenum of the stock rb25 and i think the bonnet as well coz it has scratches on it at the top and i dont know where from.

yes it is just for looks really but i think that i will notice some difference in the way it drives too

[mystery_kid]

they don't serve that bigger purpose on the skylines anyway due to the way the suspension is setup, compared to silvia's etc that rely on the top of the strut more

so no, he won't see alot if any difference driving

if it's rubbing on stuff etc then get a new one, i was considering getting a JJ front one but if they rub on stuff i might look elsewhere

the rear ones are pretty much completely useless in skylines

I have a Trust/Greddy one here for $199. Ex display item (never been fitted).

no way in the world will you feel any difference between brands of strut brace. In fact odds are if someone took it off and didn't tell you, you wouldn't pick it at all.

unless you mean a difference in how your wallet feels?
