Will the strut tower braces work for the USDM lancer due to the chassis being the same?

I asked a lot of people the same question you asked and they all said "...I dont know"

Can we buy the brace and if it doesnt fit, can we return it??

Are strut bars really worth it, also would sway bars do any good for that car? Any recommendations?

Bump...a few more sets left in stock.

Anything you can do to tie suspension pints together is a good thing. In reality though, cars like the WRX and Evo benefot little from a front strut brace...the strut towers are so close to teh firewall (the stiffest part of the car), that they are more of a cosmetic item than anything else. Those with fully sorted suspensions (swaybars, coilovers,e tc) wil surely enjoy a greater benefit than those just putting on a strut brace as their first mod.

However, the rear brace is a dramatic difference - car bites down much harder in the turns, and becomes much more predictable when powering out of turns.

Hmmm..there is no V2 strut brace..

There is a Type OS front brace....2 point (strut tower to strut tower) that is $160.00 plus shipping.

There is an OS-T which adds a mounting point to the firewall..these are coming with our next Japan stocking order which is in customs right now, so should be here within the week. Price is $190 plus shipping.

There is then the V1 and V2 lower arm bars...these connect under the car. Type 1 is $120.00, Type 2 is $160.00, again, plus shipping

Also now have the Exedy clutches all online in the Evo section, and loads more parts to come soon we promise! Toda, Tomei, L'aunsport, Alex, Ralliart, Power Enterprise, Cusco, JIC, Mine's..these are just a few of the companies we offer!
