Fitted a Jabba rear strut brace to my Vrs yesterday (Cheers cav )

Twos a bit fiddly & awkward but once done looks great & has made the car feel less spongey & more positve through the corners

Would post a pic but Blumin Fotopic.net is not available :(

Cheers

is it not psycological

is it not psycological

No it's Aluminium

On all the Car's i have had & have nearly always put a rear strut brace on & it does make a Difference, Some cars more subtley than others, But when you think of it, Any form of bracing has to make more of a difference than a piece of fresh air

its not a jabba one either;)

but the effect is very good,just a bit of a pain to take off:D

any pics of it fitted?

heres a pic of the brace fitted

doesn't foul the rear seats no,it fits just fine

Doesn't foul them if you've not got them in the car, eh Gary?

its not a jabba one either;)

Forge?

Awesome bit of kit, well happy with mine :0)

The Jabba one is the rear Anti Roll Bar (rear ARB), the Forge one is the rear strut brace

The Jabba one has a very pronounced (positive IMHO) effect on the handling, the Forge one stiffens up the rear further which is a nice additional mod but it does take boot space (it is removable).

It might just be me but I always think people with rear strut braces in their boot look like knobs.

No offence intended

Not half as daft as those who have Rear Strut Braces Fitted in the front

It's all down to preference & i like many others like to make my cars drive positively & this is one of the markers in getting there, it's not for looks but for the feel ..

I agree that they don't look great, and i wouldn't remove the parcel shelf in order to show it off.

The beauty of it is, although it takes up space in the boot (space i don't really miss personaly) its a good mod that can be hidden easily.

You could walk past my car in a car park and not have a clue that its got one fitted. Thats the type of MOD i like

A pic of Wiebo's one..

are these hard to fit ?

It is pretty easy to fit Instructions are supplied with it, and also Forge are very helpful anyway in case of questions

cool thanks
