Default X-brace ?



Anyone know who makes this X-brace? It looks sorta custom to me since I haven't seen it around.

I know, but you can't fit your strut bar with that brace, unless they sell a some sort of bracket option to let you do so. Area51 brace looks good, but I kinda want to keep my rear strut bar.

I emailed AJ Racing, but they never got back to me. Seems like the few people that can get them, can only get EK models.

Here's some pics of my car with the prototype Area51 X Brace. It's a very high quality piece and will definitely be cheaper than the miracle bar.

Very nice, are they planning to make one for the 92-95 body style?

I'm not sure if they are? You can go to their website and either call or email them.
