Ive updated the list above with prices so far. I think we still might be able to do better, it all depends on another few suppliers!

Dont forget these are CUSCO strut braces and not the usual crap that ive seen being sold! Lol

All the best.

So at the moment about 10 of us. We could order at this price but if we hang on for a bit longer (when this new supplier gets back to me), we should have better prices!

Hang on longer I think.

Not that desperate for one, would prefer better discount

Guys does any body have any pics of the front upper brace?

I need a new one to fit round my new STi 5 intercooler not go over the top as my current brace does, so need to check it is the right one.

also money have you spoken to Apex performance as some of their prices seem cheaper than the GB as standard

Nope!

Getting p*ssed off with some suppliers now. You email them giving them business and they dont want to know.

I still want to do a strut brace group buy though (as i need some! lol) So im going to contact a few other companies/makes and see what discount they can give us

I am in no rush for this if that helps.

it would probably just go to waste until next year , until I start doing track days again and the roads improve.
