I reckon Earpl could knock together a brace like that pretty quickly. Actually isnt there a guy on ozecho that makes these himself?

Sorry didnt mean to offend you i just wonder if it was worth getting one custom made but as These OMP ones are only £34.50 and thats by a brand you have heard of made for the yaris. £100 seems a bit steep! ok it was sprayed but that aint worth that much! And you could paint yourself for a lot cheaper with decent effect as it only inside the car so aint affected by the elements!

Just a lil detail. Our cars don't have struts in the back. They have separate springs and dampers.

That said, there's a sensible difference between tying in pieces of the unibody to strenghten the structure.... like a strut brace would do in the front.... and tying together the damper pins, which are centered in the tower by soft rubber bushings, and are expected to move independently from each other. Like I said, it's just a little detail.  ;)

imagine a cardboard box (one with proper RS bumpers, not !Removed! ones) this card board box has no sides, it flops about........... but a brace across it and it no longer flops about, my point is, it drematically increases the rear handling, rear end now follows you around the corners instead of wanting to twist + move away from you. DONT KNOCK IT TILL YOU'VE TRIED IT. and for that money its rude not to.

lorne i could knock a load up a piece of pish.
