If im the first do I get a discount?

I want to buy some motor mounts too but 235 for two little products seem sharp, then again I am cheap lol.

I will just have to spend my deals gap money, because it doesn't look like I will be going to Deals Gap this year

You can't be the first to buy that has already been done. Contact sales@banzai-racing.com, Elaine may be able to give you a shipping discount as long as the mounts and the brace can fit in the same box.

Here is a pic of the Cosmo brace installed, the 12A and 13B braces look just about the same. In this install we used 2 braces, creating an engine girdle, to reduce engine flex even further.

So you guys dont use gaskets, just sealant or a combo?

I thought with this new brace I would just be able to use a gasket, and not worry about leaks?

What do you guys suggest?

Banzai-Racing

iTrader: (11)

Using a high grade silicone sealer such as permatex ultra grey, ultra black or hondabond eliminates the need for the gasket

are the studs long enough to install a baffle with out problems?

Banzai-Racing

iTrader: (11)

Yes the studs are long enough to accomodate a baffle.

i understand the better seal on the oil pan, but brace the back of the engine? tranny does that. no trash talk but i think the money spent could be better invested.

Banzai-Racing

iTrader: (11)

OK, so tell me how it is better invested in bracing the engine?

that dude that made that comment up there just dug himself a hole...The brace in my case would suite me very great because im building a high horsepower motor...so any engine flex that i can reduce by buying good quality products like this will save me money in the long run..."INVESTMENT FOR ME WELL MADE"

For somebody who does road racing every weekend or does road racing very frequently this would be a great product and "INVESTMENT"

For somebody who does drifting from time to time or does drifting as a sport this would be an worth while "INVESTMENT"

Or maybe somebody who just likes cool looking things on his/her seven something different going for the whole look don't touch kinda of feel...or the all show and no go...lose as a goose but got no juice...lol...then it's "INVESTMENT"

For somebody who is a cheap ***, or does little activity with the his/her car then yes this would be a wasted investment so in other words 1genjake this item is not for "YOU"!!! No trash talking and dont take it to heart or the butt...but you left your self open for discussion...

there's always a hater...LOL..

banzi i look forward to doing the bizzness with you this friday and putting your product on my drag project...send me stickers to sport your name on my car bro...

1stGenJake

For one, I said specifically that I wasn't trash talking anyone. Two I wasn't talking about anyone but myself. Three, opinions can't be argued. And last of all, way to be a sport about it, its not like you made the damn thing.

I put my two cents in, and you stole it from me


And I may need those two cents because I'm a cheapass, right?

I seem to have an endless oil leak, I believe due to my baffle. I just ordered one right now, I hope this fixes the problem. Leaking oil sucks big time.

From my very first post in this thread:

"laser cut & CNC punched 3/16" HR steel plate, then Bright Zinc plating"

It only take one brace, the Cosmo engine pictured above with the two braces installed is in our race ported GT35R powered 91 Vert.

All of our braces come with a FREE Banzai Racing decal.
