Tbh with the FRS suspension & handling setup a strut brace on the FRS is a waste of time & you wont notice much if any improvement from how the car is setup Its bascially because the suspension turrets are already close enough to the bulkhead

Also you'd have to remove the brace every time you wanted to get access to the fusebox, brake or chargecooler reservoirs which is not something you'd want to be doing if you're in a hurry

Totally agree with that dude total pain in the back side! The purpose 4 the brace was more 4 show than practical purposes, I'll have a look at it if the fuse box needs too much modifying, which it appears it needs! I will prob sell the brace on!!
