That is one crazy ass strut brace.
What is the purpose of that design btw?

I think this particular car change hands not long ago!

 

[matty32]

Both the Wine Red Nismo kitted R33 & Doug's Saurus R33 were imported by us (newera).

The red car has changed hands a few times in the last couple of years.

Doug still owns his from 2007/9

Both have the strut brace you mention

These are a combination of strut / tower bar combined with an oil cooler.

They are very very rare, and change hands for around 3k used

Item is made by Carrozzeria (1 G Plus heat stabiliser)

you can see dougs car here:

Hope that helps.

3k? wow thats nuts haha

 

[matt j]

A cooler above the turbo and engine doesn't seem the most logical of places even if the air flow is good?

 

[kociek]

And i thought nismo was expensive.3K is a fair bit of money.

 

[matty32]

the japanese pay for rarity

only ever seen 1 other car outside the 2 we have supplied with this system.
