Default Strut Braces, any recommendations???

Looking at getting front and rear strut braces, seen a few different options. Scooby parts do the both for £100 but is that cause there not the best. Carbon fibre ones look the dogs danglys but are they that good considering the price? EBay ones are around the same price as scooby parts but prob shlt .

Stiffer the better, to be used on a track car.

Surely the sti ones are good, i'm pretty sure scoobyworld stock them and they're around the same price you're talking. It's something i'm looking into and i'll go with sti or carbon jobs from scoobyworld I think.

Hi mate i have the carbon fibre sti front brace and its spot on but mainly getting the stiffness from a full weld in cage that helps.

As for the rear brace i have a 50mm tube from strut top to strut top incorporated within the cage

I've got a STi carbon/alloy front strut brace!

However, i'm pretty sure any of the named branded items will do a good job.
