Hi all,

Could someone tell me if the MY03 STi8 comes with either front or rear strut braces as standard?

If it doesn't are they worth fitting?

Many thanks for the help.

Sorry, also meant to ask if anyone had some photos of the engine bay of an STi8. Really want some pictures for reference for when I collected my car (check everything is in the right place).

Many thanks.

No they don't and they can be purchased much cheaper from third party suppliers than direct to a dealer and for the genuine Sti part.

I am considering buying the front strutt brace for mine.

I have seen pictures on here of front strutt braces. Try doind a search

Thanks for the info Steve777.

Can anyone recommend a third party supplier who can offer either the offical Subaru front strut brace, or a high quality third party one.

Many thanks.

TSL do one the same as the STi alloy one (apparently sourced from the same manufacturer) and a lot cheaper.
