Gary Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 I can hear the alarm bells ringing already - Newbie posting in the technical section! My strut brace came this morning so just fitted it in my lunch, are there anything technical things i have to think about to do with how much the bar is adjusted to fit it or tyre wears if i've done it too tight or is it just a case of bolt on and and hey presto? Thanks in advance, Gary (holds tightly onto desk, ducks head and braces himself for replies) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jase_93tt Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 Ive just fitted a greddy front strut tower bar and RS*R to the rear on my one. Real easyto do, just bolt on and away you go. One PITA thing about the greddy one is that its a tight fit, which is making it touch the stock air intake pipe more than I would have liked. I like to have as big-a-airflow as possible and the greddy one might be causing a slight restriction in that area. J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Posted May 3, 2005 Author Share Posted May 3, 2005 Cool, cheers mate, what i thought but just wanted to make sure nothing is wrong! Im pleased with it, in normal driving it has made a difference, i haven't given it a good test around a roundabout yet but feels a lot more responsive!

Rob Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 I never noticed a sod of difference when I fitted a strut brace, for what it's worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustGav Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Try an aerotop with and without strut braces, then you can REALLY feel the differences *grin* Gav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeez, these newbies are getting worse and worse... lol you should have seen the size of my lunch that day, had to sneak the brace out to the car park past security, 'Escape from Alcatraz' style, wiped the mayo off after fitting of course.....

Rob Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Why sneak past security? do you have a "no engine work during lunch" rule at your place of work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
