Have there been any released yet? Do you all think we need one for the sedan chasis?

Here is what I have found so far.............








that's right nothing!


1: GTSPEC is suposedly ramping up their focus on the G35 with some of their bracing solutions, but they don't have an 07 sedan stb yet.

2: Richie's STB mounts will not fit the 07 Sedan without reworking...Until the mounts fit, won't know if the bar fits.

3: ervery other bar is for the coupe.

i would be interested. had strut bar on my old maxima, and it made a huge difference. seems to me that the sedan's towers would make a strut bar installation complicated. perhaps there will be a strut bar for the coupe and/or the GTR.

GT Spec is in the works of working on a '07 strut brace -- it's a big issue w/ clearance b/c of the sloped hood and tighter engine bay

Quote: Is the 2007 G35 chassis not 40% more rigid than its predecessors... and therefore perhaps not requiring a strut tower bracing bar.?
thats liek saying since car A has 100hp more, it doesnt require modding! hahaha . now if its necessary or not is a completely different story! imo it would still make a difference.

I'd even be better to goto a welder or a fabrication shop to get some custom ones made for a $100...

would the 07 Z's bar fit if it was installed with the Z engine cover?

No.

The 350z has special welded on STB mount tabs that are not present on the G35 reguradless of build year. And you have the AC return lines in the way as well that the Z routes differently.

Thanks Kenny, keep us posted on the status on this as well as the other bracing solutions they are working on.
