who would be interested in strut braces?, guaging interest Options

[TRD_Ian]

ok so like the title say's...... i am looking to see who would be interested in custom strut braces? i sucessfuly constructed my own a few months back and every one i show them too says i should build more!.... i made my own rear 3 point brace thats works great and i beefed up my stock gt brace.... i will be going back to the drawing board tho and construct my own 3 point brace for the front for the gt/gts and will hopefully get one made for gt4/ gt swapped cars (in the air right now) i am also going to throw my celi on a lift today and am gonna look at consturcting a rear tie bar and hopefully a front brace aswell (gonna take time to fab these) and im also debating c pillar bars/ x brace for inside the car for those hardcore guys..... so if you would be interested in any of these goodies pls post up and if you have any good ideas aswell on things i could construct....all comments are welcome......negative or positive.....i just wanna be able to help our community and hopefully get some money towards my swap!....... and before it gets asked i am a welder/fitter by trade and have my own fully function shop....this isnt a back yard deal with braces held together with bubble gum and twist ties....

the pics of my bars right now are just so you guys know i am capable of building them...will not be using the same material on the new ones and there will be a new design to both... like stated im gonna run with 3/16th thick pipe.....

i wanna keep weight down but still perform just the same....tiga's is aluminum i am betting which would be why its beefy.... and just so you guys know i am gonna pre fit every set in my car to be 100 percent sure they will fit with no issues when you get em.... when i get the new bars constructed i am gonna do alot of road test with them aswell and make sure they keep things rigid....the lil rinky dink ones i have now work well but i did end up snaping my rear brace because my sub box is mounted to it and its only thin thin thin stuff and some kind of alloy..... mind you it snapped while taking a off ramp at 100 km an hr and the box is anyhing but light.... also if you guys noticed i used a gt brace and beefed it up for the front......i am constructing a whole new brace so that i wont need gt braces to make em..... stay tuned for up dates
