Sharper steering reponse and firmer brake response so far is what I feel is the main advatage. I also am in competition with my friend's 911 Carrera, and I have his car beat hands down on handling currently - he was simply amazed when I let him drive it.

 

Nemesis8 a couple questions if you know. Is it possible to buy that autoexe brace set? I have never seen that before. Any ideas where it might be available?

Second, just glancing at your profile.... WoW :D do even YOU have any estimate of how much all your mods have cost so far? That is one mightly impressive list of goodies You must be in heaven even more than the rest of us drivign around... at least one would hope!!!!

 

good choice i
ts is like night and day for maybe 3 days then u get use to it
u will never feel the difference if that sounds right.

 

Not sure about the Autoexe brace, maybe buzz Matt at RX8garage and see what he can do. As for my car, I still have my wish list below, rims, tires, and a possible body kit to go

Japanparts.com $625.00

Thats one place I knew off the top of my head.

 

thew at rx8garage.net sells it as well

 

does the engine cover still fit w/ the new strut brace??

 

The stock engine cover does not fit over the MS strut tower bar, unless some cutting is done.

However IPT (check vendor forum) does sell a CF cover that fits.

 

About $3,870.06

 

Nice. Same here, only in euros: 3,820E total spend on the car in 11months (services included) Check my sig for mods

 

Just realized I never photgraphed the rear bar

If a MOD wants to move this thread go ahead. I think it is in the wrong forum. :o

 

hmm for the back struts.. how do you install subs lol..

 

Hey nemesis, I see you don't have the tire repair kit in the car. You don't carry it anymore?
If you can't find a way to fit there with the bar, cortc had a great idea, just see his thread with the MS bars... or you think its useless ?

 

Still have it - the kit is in the floor well part of the trunk. I really do not ever want to spray that tire goo into a flat, I hear it ruins your tire. So, I'm not sure what I want to do about the spare. Do you have a link to cortc's thread?

 

lazy boy:D here you go

I asked because I'm thinking of leaving it in my garage. It can fix a tire only in special occasions, so why carry the extra weight? This way, I can leave behind all the tools that lift the car too, when driving around in the city. Just load them on only in a trip...
