I don't think for a second that I'm an expert in suspension design or dynamics and certainly don't ignore genuine advice from those in the know. However, I know what I felt with the Rover (don't forget, I owned quite a few and over a long time period so did my fair share of tinkering) and am interested to see if the Scoob benefits from the same treatment.

Of course I expect the Scoob to have been a better and stronger shell than a tarted up Honda Concerto from the get go but I opted for the same style and design of brace that I've used before and had success with. No shiny chrome bling here.

I'll happily admit if it makes no difference. But then, it was £70, not £270.

edit... I didn't even want a strut brace specifically. A rear ARB would be better buy tbh :D I was looking into brake stoppers and remembered there was a brace with an integrated stopper. Looked around a bit more, and in a sea of multi-piece alloy braces found what seemed like a rare single piece steel brace so I decided to buy it.

Just been having a good look at this thread, as i always wanted a Scooby when i was in my 20's or a legacy GT-B Etune when we had kids for the space. But each time i got an insurance quote i would look at it and think yes i can afford it, but i don't want to pay that for insurance. Now i am in my mid 30's i am tempted once again, specially now with petrol and diesel cars coming to an end in the future.

Anyone fitted Perrin Stiffis?

I've got a STI wing on my WRX but underneath the spoiler there is only 1 hole in the center :confused:. Im led to believe there should be 3?

Subaru friends, help me decide. Have got a "top 3" which are pictured below:

I'm on the fence between the Light Anthracite or Gold.
