Do they actually put their name on such an item and if so do you have to buy it through the dealers like all other Subaru 'bits and bobs'????

Cheers Nige:D

Anyone!!!!

Probably should have mentioned it is an upper strut brace that I was referring to:D

I've never seen a Prodrive strut brace.

Tony.

You referring to the one fitted to the STi?

Yes, I think so.:rolleyes:sorry for being a little vague

Don't bother - it's useless!! (it flexes like a flexi thing). It's cosmetic....

Matt.

Cheers Matt,
Do you recommend any particular one??

Any one which is solid. Personally, I bought the Cusco one which is very nice but there are plenty others which are good like the Whiteline, Powerstation etc.

Matt :)

Cheers Matt,
Cusco strut braces are quite expensive if I remember right but they look good as well as do the job they're intended for.
Looks like it'll be one of those please Father Christmas:D

Rasher,

I changed the front upper brace on my MY99 STI-V from the STD Carbon/Alloy jobbie to a Cusco Alloy brace, feels much tighter now, the STI one is approx £300 to buy new, wheras the Cusco is only £160 so its cheaper and better imho.

omp steel strut brace does the same job for 50.00

...but is presumably a lot heavier due to it being steel! :)

Matt,
Not by a great deal would hardly notice imho.
