Will this fit my nova (corsa adjustable strut brace)

[dumpycorsa]

Hi. Looking for a nova lower strut brace. Can't find one anywhere so was thinking - if I buy an adjustable corsa one that has at least an inch of adjustment (to allow for size difference) will it fit?

You could be the man that finds out... I reckon it won't.

Upper Corsa dont fit unless fettled and shortened by about 38mm (This is what i did to my old one anyway) High change it wont fit at all.

Worth a try. Keep us posted. With pics ;)

Right. Looks like I'll have to try it and find out. Only £19 for the corsa one where I've seen the nova ones for lots more.

I've bought this one and will be sure to let you know how it all goes

True, my lower Nova braces sell for £40/50 on eBay :thumb:

Only one thing though, as with all strut braces, how can a brace thats already "bent" offer any kind of rigidity as the bends will simply "flex/bend more" under load.

The same effect as when your standing ontop of a Coke can, and someone flicks a dent into it.

The same could be said for the adjustable upper ones then. My sparco one isn't straight

^ I know yeah, ive got front upper/lower & rear upper on mine anyway.
