Hi Dv8one I made one and fitted it to my Na 1.8 but have since removed it I hope to have the newer design finished buy the end of the month which should resolve the vibration at the 1800 - 2100 RPM range
the new design will make all the old part U/S I could sell It to you for the what the parts cost me to get made. Pm if interested. When I get the vibration under control I will make a bunch of them to sell

I hope this Help

Hey Russellb how will the braces go for clearance?

will be no lower thay the standed front brace
the one I have made( which vibrates ) sit the same height as the standed front brace. Anyone want the crappy one? :D (my cost )
The New should have even more ground clearance 8)

The one I have made sits higher than the stock one and I think I have the vibration sorted (still testing).

I would still be interested to see how you go?

I am quite interested in a rear brace I have started making one but Im curious to know what other people have done?

Hey dv8one I'm working on a rear brace as well. Having the same problem with ground clearance and vibration
I have one that replaces the intire rear subframr from a 1.8 Na.But the
vibration and Mecancal noise tranfer is still being worked on. I hope to have both frond Trans brace and Rear diff brace out but the end of the month ( If all goes well amd it never does) If you like I have a DXF of the
front brace MK I
