Hi fellas.

Would any of you be able to tell me if this is worth getting? For an NB8A.

Thanks

The listing says it is for NA6s - US 90 - 94...

And this seller is a big fan of the group buy. Get 3 friends to buy aswell and it is about half price per piece... 8) Trust me... :mrgreen:

I have no idea if these are any good though.

:oops: :oops: :oops:

My bad, just read it wrong, sorry! Those are US dates, so anything but the NC.

And i'm serious about group prices, I bought something from him that would have been US$130 + US$70 postage for 1, and I got 4 for US$455 posted.

NBs have basically this exact brace from the factory. Why bother replacing it?

Don't seem to remember seeing one on my 8A

Sort of...it's littler and flatter and sits about 4inches fwd of where that big brace is.

I see my factory braces on my 8A. They have tapered ends. One on the front and one on the back.

Is it possible to add more of these braces? My car rattles over city streets, so I'm hoping this makes things alittle more 'tight'

If your car is rattling over city streets already, wouldnt stiffening it up make it worse?
