Which Strut brace?

I have a chance to buy a Greddy front strut brace for £125. Is this a good deal and/or good bit of kit?

£125 is quite expensive, does that include postage? I can supply for around £100 delivered.

 

The GReddy ones are okay, not as good as the likes of the TRD or Carbing braces though, but then these are around £50-60 more.

 

Give me a shout if you want any more details.

Here is a pic of the Carbing brace fitted on Supragolds car.

 

The added benefit of the Carbing brace, is that it includes a brace for the brake master cylinder, this prevent flex, which results in a firmer brake pedal feel and increases stopping power.

 

The brace is also available to fit NA Supra (most others do not clear the intake manifold). It is also compatible with the Tein EDFC motors.

 

Price including postage £160.

Thanks for the advice guys. Carbing it is then... Clearly the additional benefit of the brake brace outweighs the bling. For the record, the Greddy was $119 plus $79 delivery.

 

I'll wait to see the final invoice from my recent engine rebuild then contact you Nic to get an order in.

 

Thanks to all who responded.

Okay just give me s hout if/when mate.

 

Forgot to mention, the Carbing and TRD braces are welded together which makes them a lot stiffer than a bolted together brace. The TRD one is steel and is quite heavy the Carbing is aluminium and is suprisingly lightweight.

 

cheers
