Hello

If anyone is considering getting a strut brace, I would recommend www.strutbracer.co.uk. I got an OMP strut brace for my car for £49.99 including delivery which I thought was very reasonable and it arrived in about 4 days. (they also do universal rear ones which might be worth some investigation)

Hope thats of some use

did you get a rear brace?. I was wondering what difference it would make.

Didn't get a rear brace as there isn't one made specifically for the 33, there are only universal ones. From what I've heard though, a rear brace is well worth it and I can certainly vouch for the front one!

good to know where to get them, i tried the other week with no joy, sweet.

I bought one for the front a week ago, fitted it Tues ,but have not had the time to see if it would make a difference ,whether i tightened it up enough I don't know as their is no guide to how tight. Anyone got any idea?.

Take off the strut brace, find your favourite corner, chuck it in at a set speed and see what the turn is like on entry and how it settles on the exit.
Then find a flat level surface and fit strut brace, I've only fitted a solid "non adjustable one" to my ser 2, so I would prob just align all 8 holes, then tighten up the 8 bolts then tighten up the centre bolt until quite firm.
Any one else know proper way to do it as I will be getting one soon
