It looks kinda too close to the valve cover in the pic? is that me or the pic? Do you have any trouble with the bar hitting when engine is flexing?

Hmm I am curious if the front will clear an LS1...?
Truly I do not know if it would fit...There are a couple of key points to measure then I could give you a better idea.

Any chance that you'll make one for the S14, or is it the same? LMK!!

Yes I am going to be building ones for the S14. They are a little wider than the S13, about a half an inch wider.
I have built a couple and they fit real nice...lots of room. I am going to try to borrow one of the ones I built to build a jig for these. Trouble is once they put it on nobody wants to take it off...lol.

Thanks
Jonnie

I did a set of fender braces...they were a PITA and I still need to gring some off so they fit right.

Updates boys and girls!!!
I finally was able to get the S14 jig done...:w00t: Now I can spread some love to the S14.

Now for the bad. If you are running an S14 SR20DET in your S13 chassis my bar Will Not Fit.
I forgot to mention it in my first post...I am sorry for the screw up. :tardrim:

Any chance you could do one in a triangulated design that connects to the firewall? Id be interested in one of those if possible with a bmc stopper.

10-30-2008, 10:30 PM
will this fit with a dohc KA? if so... DELICIOUS... SR will be coming soon enough, but i want something that i can bolt over the KA for now... its a KA with nismo mounts btw

Jonnie Fraz
10-31-2008, 05:07 PM
Yep it fits...close, but it fits. SR20 will fit real nice as long as it is S13 SR20. S14 has the tall valve cover and it is just too tall. I am working on it though.

i have S14 sr20 in 180sx, will it fit as same as the red top s13 sr20?

Are you running the S14 valve cover? The one with the hump? If you are my bar will not fit as of right now. I am working on it though.

Well I have a small update. I just got these back from my laser cutter.
The top one is the FSTB BMC stopper. It is cut from 1/4" plate... woothttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v635/Fraz-Man-One/new-brackets.jpg

The bottom piece is the gusset for the RSTB.

Hope you like.

It give better feel. To see how have a buddy step on the brakes in your car and watch the fire wall flex. In extreme cases the fire wall will flex as much as 1/2" when the brakes are applied. With the BMC stopper it helps brace the fire wall and almost all the brake preasure will be transfered to the brakes not lost in flex.
Hope this helps.

are you making any time soon a Cpillar bar? cause i was going to order the package we talked about in a PM, but i would wait to just order all 4 pieces from you in one shot...

ps. did the price you give me for the front bar was with or withought the BMC stopper?

BigBeast
01-15-2009, 02:40 PM
wich material do you use for the Brace's, is it a stainless Steal?

im very interrested in you products and will order a Set of the Front & Rear Brace,
i lowered my Engine 1cm but i don't know is it enough because i have a S14 blacktop Sr20det in my S13!

hailandkill
02-11-2009, 06:01 PM
+1 for c-pillar bar. I'd love to buy one if you made one. I just ordered my front and rear set and can't wait till they get here.

Mr.s13r
03-12-2009, 10:34 PM
Wow i like your strut bar style. Looks really good and it is the type i liked. You remind me of Ultra Racing products. U should design what they offer because i think a lot of ppl will buy it.

JeremyR
03-12-2009, 10:44 PM
question, i see that the BMC stopper is adjustable. is it compatible with the 300zx BMC??? for those of us with z brakes.

Mr.s13r
03-12-2009, 10:46 PM
I think it should be the same since both are pretty similar

Jonnie Fraz
03-12-2009, 11:00 PM
I have not tried an S13 with a Z-32 master, but when I take dimentions of the Z-32 master it is pretty much the same length.
If any one else knows different please let me know.

Thanks again for customizing the bmc stopper slightly to increase clearances w/ my turbo.

Finally got a couple pics for you to show clearance w/ S13 KA w/ Nismo Mounts (SR ones flipped left & right):

http://www.bewbews.com/pictures/3/2831.jpg

needed the spacing, or else there would be no clearance at all:
http://www.bewbews.com/pictures/3/2832.jpg

The clearance between the valve cover & the strut bar is basically the spacer. Good thing the Nismo mounts work well & the engine doesn't move much otherwise.
http://www.bewbews.com/pictures/3/2833.jpg

I have the strut bar, shakitto plates, front ladder bar, nismo power brace, and even Jonnie Fraz's Fender braces - everything feels GREAT.

I added another spacer originally, but that made the strut bar hit the hood. So there's very little room to play with in this design. Only suggestion would be possibly selling an extra pair of flanges for ppl who can get it to clear?

There is definitely a more solid feeling w/ this front strut tower bar compared to the adjustable Cusco one I had before. You can feel the differences @ autox - especially in combination w/ the other pieces. I'll post pics & comments about the fender braces in the other thread.
