Is that a direct bolt on, or is ir jap spec?

Think something could be modified for fittiment to an FC N/A?



I understand RB sells a unit, but the Feed (FD) unit looks much more durable and also looks like it would function better.



Any ideas?



Thank you.

I now own one of the ones from eBay. First, even though that thick cylinder looks like a strut, it's actually holding what looks like a Teflon or urethane insert that prevents any piston motion. That's still as good as a simple bar, I guess. Can't say what's inside the FEED unit.



Second, and more important, that bracket is designed for J-spec RHD cars. If you mount it unmodified, the brace doesn't clear the rear fixture on US-spec ABS units. One eBay seller has posted pics of where to drill new holes in the bracket to mount it a little farther forward, and I'm going to give that a try some day.
