i run 5mm spacers, i think driftworks stock some 3mm ones for the s13 that fit? s12's have shit lock as standard so this is one of the best drift mods for them otherwise your be forever spinning out whereas if you were in say a s13 you would catch drifts much easier

I`m definately interested in buying a strut brace from you, if you are prepared to make some up, that would be great.
Would they be just plain alloy or would you be able to anodise them ?
If anyone else is interested, perhaps we could get a bulk order going .
Regards,
Ian.
P.s. Have you ever thought about rear strut braces too ?

CHEERS FOR THE INFO GUYS, VERY USEFUL SITE IS THIS!

Nobody buy any braces, I will make some up in the very near future and bung em on ebay for you guys to 'buy it now' at a sensible price with P&P on top. I will leave them in raw state so you can spray them yourselves unless you give me some extra to powder coat. I will laquer the alloy.

Rear strut braces are agood idea. Get a pic or two up on this thread and I will see what I can come up with.

Hans.

Peterborough, Cambs.

I need some idea of a design. If they do that sort of thing any more for the S12, if not then an S13?

Hans.
