Good to know

I want to get a similar set of these for my GTR along with a bunch of other Nagisa alignment/suspension parts too.

FYI, I installed my FEED ones and they cleared that drain thing with very very little clearance....but I didn't have to bash it in.

Did not have to bash anything, created .250 inch of clearance to reduce the chance of contact

Thanks for taking the time to write up your experiences. Plan on doing this as well, and that is the cheapest price I have seen for Fender Braces. How long did the shipping take?

I went with the Silk Road set, which I believe is the same as the R-Magics. I added some 1/4" steel, bent over the drain, for better triangulation. Miata mx5 can get these for you at a great price.

I took a bunch of install pics today which I'll add to my build thread

If anyone's interested I have an extra set of lightly used Nagisa braces available.

Thumbs up

Well here's mine, installation was a breeze. I don't even need R&R instructions to do this. But no matter what or how careful you are about the doors there is no way that the door will line up as it is.

Just make sure not to secure and tight them on the jack stand make sure to roll it or drive it a bit to settle things down and tight her up. The door well thats another story I simply used the floor jack and tight her up - done.

Thanks Rich (goodfellas)

some nice info here. i was thinking about getting these and and think this thread helped me make a decision. I know MoreJapan carries them and I called and they said they actually have a set in stock ready to ship, so no 3 month wait. Now I just have to pull a trigger.

Great addition. Noticeably less nose dive on heavy braking.
good for backroad and motorsports events
