Hmm, is the s14 setup really that much different than the s13?-Dan

Yep...The S14 does not have holes on the inside of the TC bracket, so they need to be drilled.
Some model years do not have the holes period.
If you realy want to do it let me know.

Sorry, I was gone until last night so hadn't viewed your post. My '95 has the holes on one side and that setup uses the pre-existing t/c rod bushing bolt, so i'd only have to drill one hole in each side correct? That's nothing if that's the case, I know it's at an akward angle, but i'd rather give it hell for the sake of doing it on car. I have a question though, what is that gold bracket for... power steering bracket or something  ? Would you still be utilizing an anti-crush spacer in that area? -Dan

Yes the gold bracket is power steering bracket. Yes I would be sending the anti-crush spacers.
If you are going to do it on the car I realy recomend dropping the sway bar to get to the TC nut to torque it correctly.Thanks for the intrest

This is great! I'm loving this fabricator's market so far. I'm going to go with your product instead of the NISMO one when budgeting allows. Looks great btw.

He's working on an S14 piece already, have some patience! I'm sure you could get it in raw/unpainted so when you get it you can paint/ powdercoat whatever the heck you want on it  -Dan

Dang, now I see this when it's too late! Story of my life...  I welded plates onto the bottom of those brackets trying to stiffen them up. I'll have to go look to see if I could slip the Anti-Crush brackets in there. ...it's a sad day for me

Jon, i'd emailed you awhile back about getting one of the s13 braces. At the time you didn't have any available.
If you've got any now please let me know.thanks.

Yeah i second that thought on the s14 brace. I'd much rather have one these, even if they are still a PITA to install. Especially at that price. Let us know when the s14 is ready.

got the brace in.

| Quote, originally posted by Jonnie Fraz » | Ok boys and girls...I have been working on this for a while, and I have had some great success with this bolt in kit. Basicly I designed this as an alternative to the Nismo Power Brace. Nismo makes a great product, but I thought there was room for improvement.
With my kit it is not nessasary to to take out all front end to install the brace. It bolts in using existing holes in the brackets, this allows for quick install, and not having the need to realign your car...although it is probilly a good Idea.
The kit includes a cross brace, anti crush spacers, sandwich plates, all grade 8 hardware, and a vial of red loctite to keep it all together.
Here is a pic of the parts and the tools required to install.
I sell the whole kit for $90.00 plus shipping
Being that I am one guy fabbing these please contact me for availbility.
I take Paypal for payment.Installed pics
 
Any questions feel free to ask away.
Thanks
Jonnie |
I am very impressed with this product. If i didnt all ready have my chassis dialed in with the parts i have , i would definitely buy this from you.
