Strut Braces

[Nath200]

Anyone know where to buy front and rear upper strut braces for a 200?

Rears are available on eBay and from a guy on ClioSport. As for a front I have seen one somewhere, but the general consensus is that there would be very little benefit given that the front struts are so close to the bulkhead anyway.

i think there is a company called Strut Bracer selling thru fleabay dude

I got my front upper strut bar from Ultra racing.



Still didn't have the chance to try it out because the car is under construction.

Will order front Anti roll bar from Renault Sport.

Nice on guys cheers for the reply's. I'll check out fleegay for the rear.

thats looks cool. Only front strut i have seen required cutting away part of the drivers side (RHD) bodywork and bolting it on tot he side of the strut, which looked pretty pointless But who am i to judge. How much was that if you dont mind?

Don't know about the RHD because mine is LHD and should be bolt on.

It was 70,29€ with 35% discount.

Ultra racing H brace and rear ARB was something i was looking into. Seem like they will definitely be worth while modifications.

Then my engine developed a fault............im not bitter

Interesting range of suspension mods....

i'd get a rear brace if you could fit it without having to chop the interior...i'm also not bitter

 

[DanT]

Get the H brace and rear arb and then tell me all about the differences it makes! Then i can go buy one!

Thats the one i looked at. The only place i was able to find them.

 

[Gandy]

not too badly priced either

 

[DanT]

Yeh they are ok i thought. I dont think that they have the rear ARB listed yet unless they have got round to it now.

 

[Gandy]

they have the h-bar and the front brace but no rear

 

[DanT]

Yes thats right, if you contact them through email they will give you details on the rear arb price. They have them.

 

[Gandy]

I'd need a pay rise first lol...re-map is next on the list after sorting my brakes

 

[DanT]

Yes dont blame you mate, like i said if it wasnt for the engine going wrong then i would be on these right away.

 

[Gandy]

tell me about it mate, just got mine back from Renault so having a quiet week or 2 now lol
