with the sale of the strut braces i will obviously make a small dollar, rust repairs cost money, i will use the profits from this and then put that towards the cost of rust repairs, see....

a strut brace was best explained to me, new suspension is like new shoes and a strut brace is just lacing them up tight, so effectively you are putting fresh laces on your old kicks , but there is a fair bit of chassis flex in an 86

les at whiteline they are like about $200, and in strut braces i can hardly say there is HUGE amounts of precision and design put into these things, your just buying a brand name pretty much.

Exactly, what you are really paying for is the name. Ive seen the stock AE92 strut braces cut and fitted into place on AE86s.
Sorry, im out for this one though.

Would it be possible to just buy the tops (i.e. the bits that actually bolt to the car) without the bar (as it won't fit my car....but I'm pretty sure MX62 cressidas share the same strut tops....).
