I have fitted many whiteline suspension goodies
they manufacture great product, quality service etc!!!
does someone local to you supply them??
Or will u mail order from Australia??
I would source ya strut brace from the US....postage$$$$
as good as their stuff is, it wont be any better than anything else.....
I have a CUSCO one on mine only cause I got it at same price as the whiteline,
and its a Jap brand and its pretty blue paint looks nice on my yellow car,
just dont buy a noname chinese one they flex a bit!!!!!
Im sure FC3S ones fit with slight elongation of strut top mount holes.....
I have made them from steel tube before with great ease and success, again i just wanted a pretty one

I found a place in states that is supplying them but I cant seem to find a picture of it. Its not a bad price especially for the availability of any products for our cars. I thought about fabing one myself but I just didn't want to deal with the tower plates. If I could find a dirt cheap one I would just buy it and fab the bar myself.

go the whiteline they are great product!!!
especially if they have stock on hand, and u dont have to ship it yourself
gotta support Australian Made Exports!!!!!
atleast it will be different and unique
just make sure ya dont pay heaps more than a decent US version thats all!!!
here they sell for under $250AU wouldnt pay any more!!
looked for a pic for ya but no joy, they have yellow rings for strut tops.....

Check out RE-Speed. they have lots of nice suspension goodies for our cars and are based out of Geaorgia. www.re-speed.com. Billy's a great guy to deal with so ask him anything. Absolutly top-notch craftmanship and the parts actually work.

Yes I have seen it done. The flange points need to bend slightly in a vise to fit. The FC rubber strut caps also fit as well.
