JCW strut brace

Hi

Took my MCSC out for a good run yesterday and for the first time I noticed a bit of wobble from the shell. Has anyone tried the above yet on a Convertible?

I only noticed the shake on some rough road when making good progress , but it was enough to make the car feel a bit woolly. Hopefully if the brace made the car stiffer it might help.

Thanks

Colin

Hi Colin

I have had the JCW strut brace fitted to my MCSC for a few weeks now, having just returned from the White Horses (Middlesex Maniacs) run today with some very fest driving which was brilliant in the sunshine with the roof down, over some of not the smoothest B roads found the car to be much better thans stock. I know what you mean from your description as mine used to feel loke that when I pushed it hard she danced around a little at the front. She does feel much more solid now
