HI guys, i know that you are busy at the moment, but would you consider making a rear struct brace? Finding it hard to get hold of one and if you guys can make them that would be excellant!

There's a group buy for them running just now:

Oh my god!! I didnt expect this to happen? It was just something i was looking in to for myself. To be honest with everyone i cant see this being something cheap that i could sell on but i guess i will just have to see how it goes? Cuprarob feel free to look in to anything for anyone else, maybe its easyer for you to make to order? I would be happy to make a few if it went ok and like i said before im not looking to make money so i could do a couple for a good price as its just my time really the materials dont cost me anything as long as i dont take the p*** at work too much. Anyway give me a week or 2 and i should have something under way. Thanks for the interest everyone.

Look forward to seeing it. Brushed sleet would look lush or aluminium for weight.. Or you could post for a carbon fiber person and get him to make you a bar and you make the ends?? How lush would that be??

You mean like the APR one AwesomeGTI sell, for £175

It is very nice but it doesn’t fit the LCR, would be nice to make one like it if the bar could be made to run around the back of the LCR's engine, can't see why not but then I haven’t looked at the engine bay for a day or two, there always seems to be something in the way.

I can see a hybrid of the APR and the S3 coming on, Hmmmm complex.

May have a look tomorrow if I get time

Thinking of changing the suspension on my fr 150 or something like,
Does a strut brace make that much difference never had so i dont know.

They can do tehy stifen up the front end. Depends on your currents set up, shocks etc.

I too will be watching this thread with interest! I would be interested in one too. The S3 one is cheap and fits perfectly but I would prefer a polished one. Did consider having the s3 one plated but think it would be cheaper to just buy a polished one...
