i need to see under your car to check that out. With my driveway and the way i enter im always looking for ways to stiffen up the car. If thats in a location that wont cause problems I may get it too.

how much was it?

HKYStormFront · 07-13-2011, 03:42 PM

i'm betting that would scrape going into the garage...

scraping issues are right in the middle of the car. the cross brace. as thats the point where the center gets closest to the apex of the curve. If that sits far enough ahead close to the wheels, it shouldnt scrape. but i need to verify.

If i could find braces for the front in front of the wheels too i'd get those immediately. The nismo ones are more dampeners vs braces so im not looking at those.

It is mounted just behind the front wheels below O2 sensor harnesses. That's why I opted for this one vs the 4 point unit. Height is exactly same level as the plastic belly pan below the steering gear. So straight on impact would have to hit the belly pan first. My concern is with the ends and speed bumps. It is only 100 bucks so if I destroy it I don't feel so bad. It's also really lite!!
