    It says "This brace will clear the upper plenum and hood without any modifications needed."

    $10 it's not made by Nismo ;)

    Clicky

    That is so different to every other Nismo strutbrace I have ever seen. It would also be the first Nismo suspension product without a big Nismo sticker :p

    For that sort of money I would go a Carbing strut brace, or a Powertrix front fender brace.

    At last!!!
    Have tried for years to find one of these - saw it on CAZ's (Caz Racing) zed avatar, and LOWZX said she got it got from Smithysplace in the uk. Have tried to contact her on number of occasions re getting one / some made here. Any interest in a Z1 GB???

    Wow, that's rather weird... Looks far too tacky to be a Nismo product. Also interesting to see that a lot of parts they offer are made by different manufacturers such as Carrillo etc
