When I fitted my Neuspeed one I came across the same problem. All I did was enlarge the bracket that the aircon pipe attaches to the car with to allow some downwards adjustment and it fitted.

A dremel is your friend ...

Will have a look on Wednesday (unless it stops chucking it down here tonight!)

Like i said, i'm off to see Rob to get TCT replaced onThurs, so if pipe does need moving / grip needs altering, I'm sure between the two of us, we can do it!

Looks good. Nice strong design, I have some pin joint one which in 3 separate parts, the design like yours is much better.

Took the car to Garage R today to get the TCT replaced (cheers Rob!!)

Decided to take the A628 route, through the Peak District, for the nice windy roads.
...shame it was raining tho.


Anyway, from what I could feel, the car has slightly less flex across the front now (it could be in my mind, but oh well!), now I just need a rear brace and I think it'll be superb!

Am really pleased with it overall - the silver 'password:jdm' plate, and the metallic gold of the brace itself add some much needed bling to the engine bay.

...Now for some carbon fibre...
