As per title really, fancy getting one for the ZS when it comes home! If anyone can point me at one and if they're worth while, I'd be grateful!

Front or rear?

Motobuild do one for the rear (I think it goes at the bottom of the struts) for about £40, it is often on eBay.

if you've got a 180 then there isn't one for the front

Honda Civic Coupe lower braces will fit though

Do they make much difference? Handling wise?

Feels better when pushing hard into a corner when blasting down a closed/private road. More stable and less flex so better grip but i suppose that will really only be truly noticed to full effect on the track but I rate them as a good buy. certainly gave a confidence boost when going for it.

I can only find the rears on the motobuild site...and about 3 different ones at that :/

Pretty sure i got the front one from them unless they stopped doing it. I'll check my receipt.

The straight adjustable one. aint got yet as i ordered it at the weekend so should arrive this week but problem i have is the dirty big sub sitting in the way! The other type i seen was a lower brace but i aint sure on the fitting of it and if two are realy needed tho i may end up getting one anyway. If you get the brace from banshee throw the instructions away as they where written by a thicko

Does it fit all ok? or is it 'snug' - in the front I mean.

Ah wait, you have a 120....didn't think you could get a front one for the KV6. Shame

Ah, forgot you had the V6. see if you can still get the rear one, better than nowt.

Yes it looks like you can. Wouldn't hurt having the rear done....I need to get some coilovers too at some point.
