scroll down to the bottom and says :

Re: distance between rear strut towers
yeah but if the distance is correct, the tower circumfrance might not be a million mile's off, i didnt get a chance to get to my car last night, did any one else? if the distance is correct i will pay £30 to give one a go and see how it works out,
Jap adjustable suspension stuff is all really cheap so if we can utilise it will be good

Re: distance between rear strut towers
Well i reckon the distance between each tower would reach being it adjustable e.t.c., you will need to modify the fitment, i reckon just weld it across... the one i have for my car bolts up at the tower top, ill take some pictures later and post it up, its actually off my car!austin25uk wrote:yeah but if the distance is correct,

Re: distance between rear strut towers
it would be easy to weld these to the strut tower but atleast the aluminium bar would be removable and adjustable. would look profesional aswell
