That depends on how hard you want to make it to do an oil change.


IMO, the rear one is not necessarily if you have a rollbar or cage. The front one is overkill if it's not a completely dedicated track car.

Those look like they are to stiffen the chassis from the inside of it, and inside the engine bay. It seems that it braces the strut towers to the chassis. Corksport only sells the autoexe braces that brace under the chassis in an X structure, along with the triangle set that braces the rear.

Maybe they sell the thing in the first post too?

I was kind of concerned about that, where do you think the fitment maybe an issue? I saw it on a rotary and it looks like it cleared the IC pipings pretty well, so over the intake manifold of the LSx may not be a problem, I think.

I am more interested in the rear, but if I do purchase it, I may buy both to see if it will clear.

Its nice to know I'm thinking about the FC chassis and everyone else is discussing this for the FD.

They should make them for the FC... and drop the price a bit.
