View Full Version : New Fender Braces **Special**
JDM Importers 11-21-2005, 03:54 PM Every Highly Modified car we Have purchased from Japan Had Fender Braces! Almost everycar with CoilOvers had fender braces! So I ask my friend that is involved with both Indycar and Vintage race cars whats up?
Then I spoke to a friend in Japan and they both had the same answer!
With coil overs or a strut bar the forces alway look for the next weakest point! On a Subaru the waekest point is the upper rail! it is pretty thin Box Rail. On a hard turn in it wants to fold over! The weak stamped factory does not hold up to the forces!
So I asked my friend to fabricate some to test, and after 4 different sets this style has been by far the best!
These a professionally welded, Braced and Powder Coated!
We have installed on GC8 and GDB and have found a noticable difference in both!
We will have a Special Price for the 1st 10 buyers to get feed back!
Similar JDM version sell for Over $160!
Next 8 buyers Pay $109 Shipped 2 sets sold!

S.G.D 11-21-2005, 10:07 PM now, these....these work all season unlike the battery!
you guys are killing me here.
edit: do the fenders have to be removed to install them?
MartinD 11-21-2005, 10:10 PM I would like to try those, probably install a set when I get my suspension on :)

JDM Importers 11-21-2005, 11:06 PM They all have fender braces but they are made fo everyday road driving not Heavy G cornering!
the difference is night and day Kevin
JDM Importers 11-22-2005, 10:00 AM bump!
Wayne_Coots 11-23-2005, 12:14 AM How do these compair to say the GT Spec ones?
JDM Importers 11-23-2005, 12:06 PM I am not familiar with the GT Spec,
The simple design of these with the material used are by far the stiffest! They are not the lightest, but the application requires the to be extremely RIGID Once you se thiem in person you will under stand!
These are similar the #1 selling one in Japan

stratos 11-27-2005, 12:26 PM Nice! I noticed J-speed (Marche) also makes this other brace to augment the one you have:

Any chance of importing this as well?
JDM Importers 11-28-2005, 02:36 PM We played with a set like that Nagisa Auto, I think!
and for the money and design the ones we built were the best! It seems to be the stiffest! If you get a pair you will see Why!
When anybody buys these and looks at the design and quality and does not think they are worth we will be happy to refund the monies!

mr. m 11-28-2005, 03:19 PM so the same braces fit both gc8s and gdb?
JDM Importers 11-28-2005, 03:23 PM Yes they do Kevin
Kostamojen 11-28-2005, 10:45 PM Oh man, thats a good price!!! I hear they do alot for GC's especially...
JDM Importers 11-29-2005, 01:50 AM we have them on 5 local gc8s All drivers say they work!
WgnWheel 11-30-2005, 05:54 PM the Surge Sti is using these braces and does lots of autox/track events. the added rigidity is actually noticeable. the install requires fender removal. took 2 hrs to complete.

Um yeah, I am not 100% sure what you are saying, but if you're talking about refunding me through paypal that may be difficult due to the fact that I do not have an account. I paid with a VISA.
I am not so sure DHL should be blamed for the damaged goods as the box that was holding the corner lights was smaller than the lights themselves and the only sort of packing material was a small bit of torn cardboard. That was silly at best.
Please contact me off line if you need further information in resolving this issue. I await your response.
