Strut Brace

Hey guys,
I'm currently making strut braces to suit Cordias.
These are using a hardened alloy bar and stainless steel end plates.
I was wondering if it was maybe worth making up some to suit Starions?

Cost would be around $160 - $170 MAX

I would also need access to a Starion in Adelaide to measure/ test etc.

Any interest?
(minimum number would apply)

Grumbly

no specific design as yet. will need to get a good look at a starion first.
will try to have it fit various engine types (cordia one fits all 3 major engines)

Definately count me in! My previous strut brace wouldn't fit due to the intercooler plumbing so I sold it, but now with the SR20 fitted I need a strut brace again.

ok then. I need to check some starions for measurements. Any engine config. would prefer one stock and a couple of modded ones, then I can get back to everyone with the details etc.

Adelaide only fellas....(for measurements anyway)
