Strut bar with brake brace
2 Attachment(s)
Hey guys I was thinking of treating myself to a cusco strut bar with brake brace but I was wondering if anyone knows of any other companies who do the strut bars with a brake brace as the blue is a little conflicting with the red and black engine bay.
|
Black - Mazdaspeed (carbon fiber finish)
Red - there is a separate brake bracing that comes red. i forget who makes it though |
Yeah not a fan of the carbon look and ive seen the break brace I think its made by Auto exe but its like $800.
Thanks for the suggestions and keepem comin. |
Another choice is maybe to powercoat the ends? I saw someone powdercoat their greddy strut bar to match the color of their engine bay
|
Re Amemiya makes one with a brake brace too
|
you can easily just spray paint the ends as well. Might not look as good as powder coating but it will hold up well in the bay. the color matching might be harder to do that way though. (well unless you do black)
|
Think thats gonna be the answer I cant imagine powder coating the ends will cost to much ive seen how its done maybe I should try it myself in the oven:pat:
|
also, what exactly does the brake brace do??
|
you could always just buy a brake brace from Axial Flow, it mounts without the need for an aftermarket strut bar. (you just need to drill the OEM bar, it'll be fine.)
Bigbacon: it stops the master cylinder from bouncing around so much under heavy braking. Next time you're bored, pop the hood and have a buddy pump the brakes and just watch that MC do the happy dance. having the MC stationary improves brake feel |
Its a good idea Jedi and I did spot the axial flow brace but unfortunately it is only for you lefties .
