Wanted to share with you my experience with Dave and his engine torque brace. Bought one for my 3 rotor a few months back at DGGR. Just got it installed as the car has been at Kilo Racing in Orlando for some fine tuning.
The unit is high quality and an excellent design. No scrimping on materials here
Bolting up the torque brace ends is both easy and a bit difficult. The end that bolts to the engine - easy, installs with two screws. The end that attaches to the firewall is a bit trickier. The instructions discuss removing the ABS unit but we didn't have to do this. Did have to remove the fender though and drill a few holes. Once done though, not that big of a deal.
I then contacted Dave with my brace measurements and within one week, I had the brace in hand. Again very beefy. As it comes in raw steel, I painted mine with Duplicolor chrome paint and it turned out pretty good. Installation of this part took a few minutes and is done with the installation of two bolts, all of which are provided with the kit.
Haven't had a chance yet to drive the car as it is down pending a new alternator.
Bottom line - looking for a high quality engine torque brace from a person who is great to deal with and very knowledgeable and a fellow rotor head? Then buy this unit and never look back!
