Ok guys, here is the prototype of the 3 point strut brace. I will build a jig off of this one. The production bars will be made of the same 1" diameter tubing with a .095 wall thickness. They will be fully welded, gusseted, and powder coated.

It is powder coated wrinkle black, and is a twin bar design. This is a design uniqe for hybrid and turbo modified 240sx's. We build the protoype off of 2 different cars. One was a 240sx with a stock RB 25det Nissan Skyline motor in it. Due to the high profile of the turbo charger, and intake plenum, a common crossbar would not work. The other car we used was a 240sx with the original KA24de that sported an after market custom turbo setup, and larger that stock intake plenum. The taller than normal engine profile also limited strut bar options. We designed this bar to tie both strut towers into the firewall. This bar requires 2 holes to be drilled in the firewall for proper mounting. We recieved huge positive response from our intial production run, and so we will be doing another 15 or 20 in a couple of weeks. Check out the link to the original thread to see it. http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=52446 |
