hi
My name is josh and I have just completed a prototype of a rear strut brace. I just wanted to get some feed back and see if any one would be interested. If there are enough people I would probably build 20 or so. So let me know if you would be interested in a rear strut brace. They would be powder coated and constructed with mild steel. The holes cut are the same size as the factory ones so the factory plugs can be put in to conseal the hole if you want to remove the brace. any feedback is great.
thanks
josh

p.s. autocross at petaluma ca on the 21st email me at josh_spaulding@yahoo.com

Looks real good bro. What does it do to the ride as of now? and what price range are you talking? Thanks later man, and good work.
 
Yeah, i might be interested if there is a substancial improvement. Lemme know how much you are going to be selling them for.
 
Looks nice! Would it be easily removable for loading big cargo? If not, *how* difficult would removal be?
 
interested, but how much are you charging and how easy is it to take out if I need to load cargo? (I know Sporin already asked that, but I'd like to know as well!)
 
heard that the P5 doesn't need a rear strut brace because of the already stiff body construction.

.... but it does look cool in bright red :)

how much?
ease of install?
ease of uninstall?
when you say mild steel ... what grade is used? same as front strut bar or softer?

Thanks....

Well thats the disign. What type of improvments would you want.

Ass for the rest of you It might take me a while to produce them but I was thinking around 150 u.s. dollars. They will be powder coated. It looks real nice. As for removal it would take a minute or so to remove jost the bar. All you have to do is release some pressure of of the turn buckle and unbolt two bolts. I wiil post some pics of the brackets in a day or so.

thanks for the comments.

If you are interested don't give up. I just need a little while to get going on this.:)
 
No one ever wants to be first!
Let us all know if anyone sees gains with this. I love the handling of the P5 and if there's a way to make it even better, I'm all for it.
Keep it up dhrider!
