Front top mount and Rear interior sway bars

[KnightRiderz]

Hey fam. I am looking for some other options for our front top mount and rear top mount sway bars. Something other than carbon fiber. I have found Cusco and Blitz on eBay but I’m sure they are knockoffs. Anyone know of any other companies that offer this. And forgive me if I’ve posted in the wrong section. Thank you.

Stillen?

Stillen?

I think he’s referring to the shock tower braces

Ahhhh

For the front there is the Nismo variant. For the rear though, that is actually more of a “keep your luggage in check” bar than a strut tower bar. Or are you thinking of actually adding a rear strut tower bar?

Hey guys. Sorry I used the wrong names for them. Lol. Yeah for the one in the cargo area I was just looking to see if there was something to replace that silver. Don’t feel like spending over a thousand dollars for the carbon one that’s on the Z1 website. I was thinking about wrapping it but wanted to see if there were any other options first. For the front, yes I had seen the Nismo one. I was just looking for other options as well. Thank you for the help guys

If you're going for a different look, I would pull off the factory and have it anodized, ceramic, or powder coated. You could get an aluminum front and have them done the same color of your liking.

If you are wanting to further support the rear shock tower mounting locations you will need to wait until those are made. That would only really be necessary (not even necessary for most people) if you went to a true coilover suspension setup in the rear and removed the divorced suspension setup. I have seen two instances of the shock pushing through the mounting location from extreme track use. I am not sure if they are from off-track incidents or not.

The silver bar behind the seats is technically a "seat support." I don't know exactly how it supports the seats. Maybe if you're rear ended really hard it's meant to stop the seat from breaking backward. Or if you rear end someone, it keeps stuff in the trunk area from flying into the cabin.

Whatever its purpose, it doesn't provide support for the chassis, and it's not even close to the rear strut towers. Adding a rear strut tower brace would be a separate install, not affecting that seat support at all.

I compared structural panels/brackets in that area between a 2020 370Z and 2024 Z and there are key components that have identical Nissan PNs, but not all. Not enough that I could say a Z34 rear tower brace would fit an RZ34.

Read @VR30Infection reply AFTER I posted above.
This is a rear strut tower bar/brace install on a 370Z, showing the seat support (+5 RWHP for the color) and strut tower bar...which for some reason appears to have CV axle boots covering the panel cutouts.

A company called Soul Function used to have a rear strut bar with the extra bars going to the seatbelt mounts like the pic above. I had it on my 370z and you could definitely feel a difference in turn-in response. Looks like they went out of business, really wish I kept it when my 370z was totaled

Dang maybe someone will get with the program.

Update**. I’ve checked everywhere I can find them and they have been out of stock. I reached out to the manufacturer and they stated that they are no longer being made and don’t plan on making them again. They actually told me that Soul Function are identical. I’m guessing that means they were actually a Taiwan or Chinese part maybe?!

Since your last post when I click that link it just goes to their homepage. I am guessing they removed the product from the product list?

Off to eBay we go...
