I've a strut Brace with pink ends. Haven't a clue if its the one you are looing for, got it from a friend of a friend of a friend and it doesn't fit my MY97 Catalunya. It came of a MY94 wrx seemingly. Although I didn't think it was for a turbo as the bar looks a little straight to me (but what do I know )but had it fitted the holes it would of sat behind my intercooler nicely.

I can take a photo if you want.

Max,

I've got an STI-V and have just sold my Carbon brace, want a proper Group N one, prob with the carbon ones is they are really not that good, apart from looks of course!

Tiktok,

Yes mate, mail me some pics if you dont mind

here ya go...


As you can see, it don't fit my bolts. Both the pink ends are fiarly loose, but one of the nuts is pretty rounded and is a git to tighten up, but if its what you aer after then you can have a look and see what you think.

Paul.

Edit cos I can't spell or type Also, its obviously not fitted to my car, just resting on top so its not straight etc.

okay dokay. You seem to know a lot more about them than me. (not too hard I suppose a I know diddly ) but any idea what it is, or is it just some bog standard clone. And, is it for a non-turbo pre-97 model?

I came to the conclusion that it didn't fit cos maybe mine being one of the face lift models and having a different shape front, that the dimensions were a little different?

I think I know what you meant, i did try it the other way, like back to front, sort of, but then the holes are all out.
I'm ont too fussed, one day i'll maybe buy a new one, or one that 100% fits the car etc, one day when I have some pennies
