omp ones are very good, they also do a lower one.
I have an e-tech one, but thats more for show really.

willsy 26th March 2007 13:16

Ive got top and bottom OMP ones on mine. Cant fault them atall

Yates 26th March 2007 14:45

same as wilsy

Baz 26th March 2007 14:47

upper OMP for me aswell

Ryan 26th March 2007 14:48

e tec will be about as good at keeping the struts 'braced' as a hooker is at keeping her legs together on rent pay day

Are they really that much worse, theyre more expensive arent they? They must do something

Yates 26th March 2007 15:21

they look good...

i never noticed when i had mine on the vtr

bloz 26th March 2007 15:34

The OMP is on mine as its adjustable and the E-tec isn't im pretty sure thats why everyone would say the OMP is better because you can stiffen it up

have you not seen how flimsy they are???

its nothing to do with the omp being adjstable, its to do with the fact its strong and is there for a purpose.

Can you notice a big diff when you put on upper & lower struts?


I always thought it wouldnt make a noticeable difference!

bloz 26th March 2007 16:53

I fitted upper struts on me vtr and s and noticed major difference specially around islands

Ryan 26th March 2007 16:57

a lower brace in mosr peoples opinion will make the most difference. which i hope as i will not be able to run a upper brace on my car with the engine and airbox configuration

saxo2tone 27th March 2007 19:45

is this a good price

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/OMP-Upper-Lowe...QQcmdZViewItem

and will this fit my 2001 vtr mk2 as it says vts i have checked on omp website but no vtr one listed

Yates 27th March 2007 20:11

yes it will fit, but try strutbracer.co.uk/.com

email them, ask if they have any in stock, cost me 52 quid from there new mate.

im pretty sure they have them in stock, cos they are selling that strut brace! just go on there website cos its cheaper

Predator_R32 27th March 2007 20:15

id say omp if your a rally slag and an e-tech one if your a style whore lol

E-Tech does adjust a tiny bit

bullit 27th March 2007 20:18

boz 27th March 2007 20:36
