Should I be adjusting my rear strut brace to push it outwards to tension the bar against the bodywork?

How tight have other done it?

Its the Raid HP type brace, the undrilled one.

cheers

i've read threads which suggest people tighten them to pull the struts together but I think it'd be more effective to apply the pressure against the struts.

what do you think?

Against, to be most effective you really need two rear strut braces, one from each strut top to each other.. and one from lef to right chassis points to chassis point triangulated on the floor or something..

Otherwise your just carrying another few kg's for the sake of it!
