Hi guys, we have commenced production of the R56 GTT Aerobox top Strutbrace.. Here is some spec snippits..
1) all alloy single piece fabrication.
2) cross bar is a whopping 100mm x 13mm thick.....that means its cross section is around 25 ! times greater than a brace that uses an M10 adjuster bolt.
3) CNC milled end sections.
4) Triangular milled ports (similar to our First Gen. brace)
5) 8 POINT FIXING. (not 4 or 6)
6) fits with stock R56 or JCW airbox.
7) Allows adjustable camber, within the factory adjustment range.
8) Various colours available ..inc Pepper White!
- First braces available Mid May.
Best Regards Roland GTT

Any news on possible price yet (even a price range)? Just need to work out whether it's within my price range or whether I either need to wait a while or get something else.

Hi , from an engineering /production point of view it will be slightly more costly to produce than our R53 Aerobox brace. (ie it will have elongated slots, counterbored holes, a 5 degree bend within the end sections, 8 point fixing, thicker end plates .......so I think will retail around £239+vat.
However with a group buy I think we can offer the first 40 at 'R53 brace price' ie £219+vat.
Colours ..'clear laquer over patina', black, blue, pepper white, green, red.
Best Regards Roland GTT

This looks like a very nice addon

I live in sweden though and shipping would be a big cost, but I'm going to mini united so if you at GT Tuning are as well that could be a good solution. If you are, will there be some special mini united price?
