Put me down for the front lower bar and the rear sway bar
What do you guys recon, extra $ for the sway bar or go with the rear lower bar instead?
Can you mount the rear strut tower brace all the way forward almost agaainst the rear seats. I have my sub in the back and looking at the way clicht mounted his tthere is no way my sub would fit in. If I can mount it against the rear seats it shouldn't be an issue.
Definate order for front top strut brace. tentative order for rear top strut brace depending on answer to this question.
Cheers.

Two different outcomes for those I think bud. I would go the rear sway before the brace personally. The rear brace is going to let you corner flatter with next to no roll which adds to the fun factor on both the street and track. But the brace (I believe) will tighten up the rear end for a more chuckable feel and add to overall stability (probably more noticeable at the limit on the track). Jason would be the best person to comment on the rear brace.
Confirm me for the front and rear lowers.
Cheers!
Cheap, Fast, Reliable. Choose two.
Just what I thought
Sounds good mate, how would you rate the difficulty of installation?
Was going to get the APR engine mount and possibly get volkspower to do this at the same time, but considering they charge $300 just to bolt in a front sway bar, doesn't look to difficult to do the rear and center
Don't think it'll be a prob with this many of us surely there will be a DIY at some point![]()

Front sway is a decent job, rear is DIY...
So what ballpark are we talking for freight? I'm looking at 2 sections totalling pretty cose to $300, add an extra 30ish? or 80?
dont want to be spending close to $400...
I think there is a DIY in FAQ section for the rear. From all accounts it's not hard.
Hey Ben, can you be the distributor for the three Sydney lads?
If we have a distributor for each state then we just divide the $119 total shipping cost amongst all of us. There are 14 interested so far, so if they all buy it's only $8.50 each for postage![]()
With that in mind I need a distributor for Melbourne also??
Sure, shipping them out might be a pain, but I'm in Artarmon, so if the other local peeps can collect from there, should be quick and nasty.
If you want to keep your boot space, the forge brace is a good option as demonstrated below:

Def up for front lower brace, rear lower brace and front sway.
Lock those in.
I'd love to know if the center brace gives you more exhaust clearance than the stock piece? If it does id be up for one of those too.
