Available shortly is a weld in rear turret kit that will allow you to use standard rear coilovers instead of the off-set top ones which I personally dont like. The turrets are made from 2mm laser cut steel with re-inforced and double welded tops and have been made to allow them to either sit at the standard height or 1-inch further up for those who want to run their car nice and low when the rear has been tubbed. These require decent welding and fabrication skills to install so are not a quick Saturday afternoon bolt in jobbie. I will also have a specially made strut brace available to link the turrets together but this will restrict the type of fuel tank you run. Price is 45.00 per pair with free delivery to Turbomini members. Will have fitted pics later this week.

Fitted one today to a spare panel I had as it will be a while till I get em on my car so this will give you an idea. The first shot is with the turret at the standard height to show how it could go. I have then installed it around 20mm higher up, but it could go higher still, if nessesary. Its not a difficult job but obviously you need some fabrication and welding skills. Shown also is a strut brace, this has one fixed end and one adjustable rose jointed end and uses 1-inch CDS tube.

when will you be ready to start selling sets with the brace?

also what is the distance between the brace and the boot floor? thinking about what size fuel tank will fit.
