I need to know how many would be interested in buying a billet aluminum CNC'ed poly filled torque strut?
Price ~$40 shipped in the US.
Billet Aluminum.
Filled with 80 shore polyurethane.
This would fit 92+ cars.
This is the mount it will replace.
If you are interested in buying one post in this thread. They will be ready in a couple of weeks once the go a head is given.
Thanks!

MRZ makes them, Steph.
But $40 is a pretty good price IF they are any good.

Yeah, $40 is a decent price, but like Eric said, MRZ has made these for about a year or so now... they look identical to the FFP ones, but since FFP is no longer an option... yeah.

Yes, they will be a decent price. That was the goal. This first batch will be of 18-20 units and will be bonded with 2 part 80 shore polyurethane. If there is on going interest they could become a regular part and will probably have poly insert bushings slid in, but the price might go up a little bit due to sourcing out the bushings.
A fellow online member from another board is machining the stuff and I will be filling them with the poly and shipping them out.
2loud4u: passenger side, down low take off wheel splash guard and you'll see it. It is what keeps the motor from twisting back when you hit the gas. A firmer one will increase throttle response since the motor isn't rocking and instead transfers torque quicker to the chassis.
Do these fit the quad4's too? All I know is L and the older N bodies they fit, but not sure of engine's other than 3100.
So I got 2 interested so far?

The bstuff thread is more active, but to update we are close to finishing the design. It's down to 2 final designs right now. Getting closer.

Any chance on making one an inch shorter for the 3100/3400 manual so I don't have to drill a second hole in the bracket. The old ones have both A and M holes. The new ones are all A holes.

Not really sure what you are saying there, do you have a pic?
What years are you referring to?
