Best Front Strut Brace

Featured Replies

Recommend me a good front strut brace for a MY54 Fabia vRS please.

Seat sport.

AFAIK You've got 2 to choose from!

Seat Sport or Forge

Forge one is Alloy, Thicker and adjustable, But rubs on the Airbox and requires all 3 strut top bolts to be removed for fitting and filter changes!

SEAT Sport is steel, Fixed length and only requires the 2 inboard bolts to be removed for fitting and has a depression to clear the airbox!

This can be had cheaper through SEAT dealers or TPS

Ive got a forge one but yeah it does catch the airbox and engine cover. I ended up removing the engine cover because of the vibration noise. And had to use longer bolts and raise the strut with washers a couple of mil to clear the air box.

SS i have fitted, best one i think.

Another purchase coming shortly :giggle:

I have the Seat Sport version as mentioned it's the best no rubbing issues and it's cheaper than the Forge item.
