Question

Have anyone mounted such brace?

See picture:

Is it direct "bolt-on", or does it require something special? Or is something under the car different from Jap. or Australien spec. car.

Janne,

It is a direct bolt on part, Should take about 30 Mins if the bolts undo easily enough, Be prepaired for a transformation in the handling, I could not believe the differnece in mine it was brilliant..

I have Cusco from J-W Racing ant it is amazig. Car feel like newage STi now. Understeer is still present but car is over 100% stifer over bumps.
Cusco goes with two srew for front wishbone, they are longer like OE part. You should check geometry after fiting.

Thanks guys.

Difference between 2 or 4 point? What is better?

I think I'll buy this and Graham Goode GGR022 springs (Tain) and check geometry after fitting both. What do you think?
(I already got OMP front (top) strut brace and E-tech in the rear)

Question

Then it will be 4 point MRT lower brace and Graham Godde Tein (GGS022) springs. That should do something to the handling with out making a creater in my bank account? or?

Go for 4 point. It lower the car about 1cm but makes it stiffer.
