This will split the pipe and slippers brigade from the boy racers (not saying which I am though).

Have been thinking for a while about making some strut braces for the suspension.

Looking at the pics of the rear struts I think it is doable, as well as the fronts.

I know that the TF is a fairly rigid construction anyway, but looking at the rear struts they must flex a bit under hard cornering.

So, for those in the know, what do you think? Would it stiffen the TF cornering up a bit more?

Simple engineering says that a brace will stiffen the turrets and stop flexing, but will it affect anything else, need to talk to the experts?? Why dont people like VHS do them? (just a thought)

You are definately not a pipe and slippers, therefore must be the other type !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :shrug:

I believe there would be a benefit. As it would be a leap in the dark, the benefit might be small or great.:shrug:

But a lot of people fit strut braces to all sorts of cars!:lol: So they must be beneficial.:shrug:
