Turbo Goose Posted October 12, 2014 Posted October 12, 2014 You havent got it on backwarda have you? Quote
Jay85 Posted October 12, 2014 Posted October 12, 2014 There was no dieeeee mce between the EP82 and the EP91 I've had the same rear brace in both my gt's and my Glanza! You've possible got it on back to front matey! Quote
matthew ep91 Posted October 12, 2014 Author Posted October 12, 2014 one side lines up but the other side doesnt . its not on back to front . but my car is up on jacks at cuz my wheels are away getn refurbed could that b the problem ? Quote
mikey4410 Posted October 12, 2014 Posted October 12, 2014 Ure chassis shouldnt be flexed that much mate !! Quote
Phil Posted October 12, 2014 Posted October 12, 2014 There is a difference between early gt one and the later version.New version doesn't fit the old boot arrangement, I'm not sure if vice versa is true but from this thread I would say it highly likely to be your problemPhil Quote

You've possible got it on back to front matey!Ps your right the difference is not between 82 and 91But there is still two non compatible versionsPhil Quote
mikey4410 Posted October 12, 2014 Posted October 12, 2014 Well I knew there were different ones.lol Quote
amatthews45 Posted October 12, 2014 Posted October 12, 2014 If its a genuine 3 point brace with top mount covers I will take it for my GT ;) Quote
matthew ep91 Posted October 13, 2014 Author Posted October 13, 2014 no top mount covers and its painted cusco blue lol Quote
SkevosEP91 Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 I had the same problem mate to my '99 glanza and and the brace was from an '94 ep82 and i thought the chassis of my car was damaged!!! could it be possible that is the brace the problem??? Quote
funny onion Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Sam can't get my 3 point brace on his GT but fits mine like a glove, both mk3 1995 too. think one of his strut towers doesn't agree with the other Quote
matthew ep91 Posted October 30, 2014 Author Posted October 30, 2014 i made it fit i slightly bent one of the ends and cut a slot out of one of the bolt holes and it fitted fine Quote
