Justin Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 What do you guys do? Where do you put the resistor pack after fitting a strut brace? Any pics, tips, potholes would be well appreciated. Cheers Justin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 cant remember the exact position, i remember seeing a few pics on here with the resistor pack moved further back in the engine bay on the same side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpie Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Justin im sure that i had seen Greg's aat Turbofit haad been moved to the boot. that's not on I think they just used cable ties to tie the chromed cage to the gubbins below. It has been fine like this for 2yrs now. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonny5 Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 When I fitted my HKS strut brace I relocated the resistor pack just down on the inner side of the suspension turret, I think I adjusted the metal bracket that the pack is mounted on to pick up on 2 of the holes there, one being the power steering reservoir mounting..Worked a treat as I did'nt have to extend the wiring either.. cheers Jon p.s I'll try and get a piccy;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpie Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Justin, I think the stock setup is in two parts, the top cage which has two fixing points and the 3 legged bottom fixing bracket. I have a feeling that we/I did not use the bottom bracket and just zip tied the cage and res pack using the two fixing points on the cage. see here: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soonto_HAS_soop Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 I took the standard cover off and the bottom bracket when I fitted my resistor pack (upgrade). I have a Cusco front brace, and I made a small bracket to allow the resistor pack to fit inside the brace turret top. Looks quite good....
