Strut brace/ chassis braces

Post by brendon »

Has anybody fitted strut or other chassis braces on to their scorpions/sigmas.
If so could you post some photos or describe them at least.

cheers

Hi Brendon, this is my set up to fit over the EFI plenum chamber, but I had to cut out the ribs in the bonnet to make it fit.

The mounting brackets on each strut tower I custom made myself, but used a solid aluminium adjustable bar designed for the front of a WRX.

Pipe pressed center flat or side offset flat - the ends welded - paint - quick and easy.

And yes - you will feel the difference.
