Ibiza Mk4 Strut brace - SEAT Cupra.net

I thought you guys might be interested in our latest product for the Ibiza

After working with "Forge Motorsport Incorporated" based in Florida USA on a range of new products we are now able to offer over here in the UK a front strut brace for the Seat Ibiza. Made from a light weight but rigid alloy this an effective tower brace. The brace is available is a polished finish (example picure shows unpolished) and is ready to fit utilising the existing strut tower bolts. The brace has a built in adjuster allowing ease of installation and tensioning of the brace.

On the drivers side, the strut top is partially covered so the brace has been designed to fit beneath the OEM support bracket, which is easily removed without disconnection of the relevant hoses. The complete installation is easily carried out in a few minutes with just a couple of common tools.
You can find more information here

We can offer this brace at just £49-95, but you will need to allow 15 working days for delivery. If any of you are interested just give us a call on 01452 380999 or order online through the above website link ( of course we dont charge you until the order is despatched )

Definately looks like a MK4 TDI

*Tom B* · 04-05-2004, 10:33

Yep MK4 TDI

*edc* · 04-05-2004, 12:23

Surely the clue's in the title of the thread ?

*cpufreak* · 04-05-2004, 13:34

what would the advantage of this be over the standard seatsport/momo strut brace?

which is about the sameprice....

ForgeMotorsport · 04-05-2004, 14:38

I may be wrong but isnt the Momo etc steel ???
The Forge one is aluminium

*Tom B* · 04-05-2004, 15:47

Are there any lower ones?

Just wondering if these strut braces need to be declared to the insurance companies when they are fitted?

I see the leon etc have upper and lower braces, is it the same for the mk4 ibiza?

is it worth installing this to a standard tdi sport?

*Tom B* · 22-07-2004, 16:35

The age old strut brace argument starts again...

Some say they do, some say they don't. With my wheels, I say they do. With standard wheels, I say less so.

I told my insurance company and they said "what the hell is one of those?"

*marksy93* · 27-08-2010, 10:22

will this strut brace fit all Ibizas or just the TDI versions? (I have a 1.2)

Kris@Forge · 27-08-2010, 13:49

Im sorry but without having a car here to trail fit then im going to have to say no it wont fit

*marksy93* · 27-08-2010, 15:10

ok thanks anyway, just want to get one for my Ibiza

*R1ch85* · 27-08-2010, 18:17

The Seat Momo strut brace fits 1.4's and 1.8T's. I've transferred mine from car to car so I'd imagine the Forge one fits too. If you buy a Forge one and it doesn't fit I'll have it off you for a decent second hand value
