Nope, just need to be in the same state as the brace and the FX.

That's right, I forgot you went West siiiiide.

I know the GT Spec STB fits the 1st Gen FX35, has anyone put one on the 2nd Gen FX35 and will it fit?

I thought there was something with the '09+ where it used different suspension, and it would have to be completely different mounting points. I haven't looked under the hood of one though so I can't be certain.

Thanks for the reply Stu, i have searched and could find nothing on it except the manufacturer lists it as : GTS-SUS-1323GTSPEC Front Strut Brace for 04+ FX35/FX45

I guess I will email the manufacturer to find out.

Do you happen to have a pic of the engine bay, or know if there are the 4-5 bolts at the top of the strut towers where it would attach?

I am away from home right now for a couple of days, when I return I could take a couple of pics and post them up.

Ok, I will look online in the mean time.
Judging from the pics I've seen, you can have an STB, but not one that fits the first gen. The mounting points seem more angled in.

See the difference?

Hey guys... Heres an update for you.

GTSPEC is clearing out room as we speak for the arrival of the container of braces that should be arriving today. Once they get these at their location they will sort them and start shipping them VERY soon.

Any questions, feel free to ask

 

[Tko512iFX]

Would it be realistic to say we should expect our items within the next 2 weeks?

 

[elguapo]

From the way everything looks u should see them with in 2 weeks

Hey Stu I see exactly what you mean, from those pics that STB will not work on my 2nd Gen.
I appreciate you doing the comparison for me.
thanks, I better get my letter off to GTSpec

yeah, stuff are here .... not fun arranging a 40' container full of braces. Customer should get their braces within 1 ~ 2 weeks.

Mark.

You guys are the best!!!

 

[myl168]

Can we have tracking numbers PM'ed or emailed to us?

 

[Logan]

+1 on the shipping notification. It would be really helpful to be able to schedule an install time in advance with my shop.

 

[elguapo]

Can we have tracking numbers PM'ed or emailed to us?

Yes, we will either call you guys or shoot you an email with the tracking numbers as we get them from GTSPEC.

 

[soonster]

Group BUY

I had a question and was wondering if someone in this thread could help me with it. Is there a difference (Quality wise) in the braces and bars offered by GTSPEC Vs. Speed Agency? the reason why i'm asking this is because Speed Agency has the same bars and braces at a cheaper price and one wouldn't have to deal with the shipping waiting game.:ehh:
