GTSPEC Front Subframe Tie Brace: PRE ORDER NOW

Hi everyone, Mark for GT Spec just announced this, so in the spirit of the very fun and successfull FTSB group-buy, we'll run a special priced pre-order buy on this new brace as well.

Once I get some tentaive quantities, I will post up the pre-order price. Great thing, is that Mark is targeting an MSRP of $159, which makes this super affordable.

From Mark at GT Spec:
Hi all:

Just finished R&D on this piece. Took a few revision, but finally have it done.

The front subframe tie brace reinforce the front subframe to the chassis on the 07+ G35/G37 using existing mounting points.

There are two mounting points that are left empty from the factory (2 per side). One are on the front subframe and the other are thread and located on the chassis of the car. Our brace fit perfectly into the 2 points.

Note: This will not work for G35 AWD since the G35 AWD already came with a similar reinforcement brace.

Note: Installation only takes 10 min.


Please go ahead, and add yourself to the list.

It stiffens the chassis, by tieing certains parts of the chassis structures together. It basically stiffens up and improvements handling WITHOUT decreasing normal ride quality.

A front underbrace is very much worth adding to your car. I'd be in on this in a heartbeat Sharif if I didn't already have one on the way.

It's hard to objectively say which one is most important. All of these braces compliment each other, and stiffen and strengthen certain areas of the chassis. Soon, a rear brace, and mid brace will also be available.

Sharif, are you going to have a sale price on the rear lower bar tie bar? Maybe a set deal with both the front and rear tie bars?
