    Found a new front lower brace nengun do a cusco 4 point and cheaper 2 point so will order up a new 4 point as there only 85 odd which compared to 200 for one from auz land is a bit better for something thats the same + cusco is the same as on car at the mo. Next question is the vr4 subframe the better one being steel or is a non vr4 ally one better to go with? Im guessing vr4 but sometimes it can be other way round.

    My understanding is that the cast one is stiffer than the aluminium one.

    Try Coordsport/Partbox for cusco stuff too.

    Ok looks like i have found a new front under brace. Exhaust downpipes or front pipes got 3 options so waiting on replys

    Last thing i really need is the engine brace that runs under the gearbox front to back if anyone braking one has one please let me know would normaly look myself but on holiday and only get signal in 2 places.

    Stupid b roads in cornwall. Hit a hidden bump that after stopping would seam if your a local you know the hidden bump is there and they all stop and then go over it everyone elts just drives over and hits the underside of the car. Took out the front exhaust pipe the gearbox brace and my silly low subframe brace bent and then hit the exhaust and put a dent in just before second flexi only doing 30mph lucky wasnt light or may have been doing faster. Good thing is my wife chose the road so she said shes going to pay wooo.

    I have a couple of these. I'll check if they are dented or not. I think you may be lucky to get a second hand one that hasn't at some time scraped on something.

    Can I ask when you say "no power flow downpipes" mine were made by my local powerflow dealer and are absolutely flawless. Powerflow is obviously a franchise so the work will differ across the country, but mine are fully tig'd and are done in a free flowing Y section.

    If you need downpipes I would highly recommend havibg a new set 2.5" to 3" ones made, it made a massive difference to my throttle respone and low end power.

    i know ive had 2 exhausts by diffent powerflow people (one without knowing as was on ebay)
    I just found the one i did have made rubbish build quality was poor.

    second off ebay looked nice but went to fit and was poor then found out had 2 diffrent size pipes was ment to be 3" but parts were 2.75.

    dont mind but i like to spend money and not have to do the job again or feel i wish i had done something elts.
