Technical strut brace
have you got a link to it ? i had a sparco strut brace fitted on my ex bravo from a hgt bravo, and even that was a beast to fit properly, and i believe you have to drill a hole in the top suspension mount, as the drivers side, the strut brace is only held on by one bolt :/
dont know if you can see much from that

the bolt holes are in different place, i dont know if the top mounts vary between the 1.2,1.4,1.6 and so on....but i remember the sparco one i had on the passenger side there were two bolts and how the strut brace is style, the drivers side only had one bolt available

mikey i dont have the faintest idea if they will fit. im currently working on gettin a set of brembo 4 pots off a coupe onto it with nothing but problems im gonna freak out soon with them. pmsl.
i dunno on the look of that, if im really honest i know its cheap, id go for one that fits for sure, or you atleast know that its for a bravo
It won't fit. Different turrets, different holes, narrower car. Bravos kind of have one built into the chassis anyway
Should fit no problems, same chassis
Fitting onto...? You'd need adapter plates with the right raise here and there. Otherwise it won't work!
I'd need a pic to show what I'm talking about...
Ah here we go

m20b25 i got mind discs pads and Calipers for............£120. Scrapy by me it had just came in. all parts looked fine so took them and ran when paid guy. ill try get pics up asap. hopefully gettin new wheels in next few weeks. they r red but wanna redo yellow and get the decal on front done in carbon fibre if possible then do the alloys black face and inner rim all yellow just to be a wee bit different. maybe even have Bravo written on the yellow in side the wheels for a laugh.
