I'm looking for a strut brace for my nova xe? anyone recomend 1? can you even get them or are they custom/home made?. I've seen a few on ebay but unsure if they'll fit with the xe engine:confused:

1.3SR brace iirc - thats with a powerpap though.

I stil have the SFI box, is it possible to fit 1 with this still in place?

I'd imagine you'd need it to go across in front of the SFi Box as it sits very close to the fire wall.

Have you looked in the projects forum?

[Adam*D]

Yeah, I've looked thru loads and come accross 1 that looked nice, a big fat chrome jobbie;) can't remember who's project thread it was tho:):):). I'll find somethin!

[Jack]

I have a feeling you want a Nova GTE/GSi strut brace if you nave the SFi box...

I don't know if this type fits with an SFI box fitted but this piccy should give you an idea of where it sits.

It's a M-TECH one, you can get it here :

Mine is a standard OMP SR Brace, but cut and re welded the opposite way so that the bar kinks to the front so it misses the SFI box.
