So....I'm just wanting to understand a little bit more about strut braces. I'm not going to rave my car or anything on track days but I would like the handling to be a better than what it is (even though it is awesome already!).

Will a strut brace help improve the handling slightly?.....
& are they a straight fit? (not having to move anything to fit it under bonnet etc?)

Thanks

 

generally an upper front strut brace is an easy straight forward fit.

although i believe and my next mod which should be biggest bang for buck focus handling mod is to put rear axle spacers on. 12.5mm ones the man at puma speed told me.

i already have gas coil overs and togo t1rs btw

 

upper braces dont to anything to be honest

a lower brace, different arb and coilies set up properly would be the way i would go

 

Sounds like an awesome set up mate! Coil over are little out of my price range at the moment. Just planning on lowering it and getting a strut brace. I look more into the rear axle spacers as I don't know too much about them
