Mb's 106 S2 Rallye.

What's a carter? Is that what we call a sump?

[Milli]

Apparently yes, carter = sump. :hmmm:

[Dan G]

Interesting.

 

So Mb are you going to get another bar? Or just go without for now? Do you notice much difference with it on?

[Guest MrLolololXD]

Or more simply put, an engine undertray :p

 

@Dan, front under strut braces don't make much of a difference at all, you already have the crossmember, firewall and chassis rails which add a crapload of strength and rigidity to the underside of the car. You wouldn't really notice a difference unless it was on a dedicated track car. On a street car even an upper strut brace wouldn't make much of a difference to the way it feels, it's only when you get up into the higher-than-normal-cornering-speeds where the top of the shock towers start to flex that you'll notice anything.

 

For most street cars strut braces are more of an aesthetic thing, but they sure look awesome :drool:

Carter is indeed the sump. Sorry for that confusion.

If you don't know what you are talking about, then don't post ;)

Not all cars have crossmembers. The lower strut brace makes A LOT of difference on my car! Upper strut brace doesn't do much indeed. But on 106's/Saxo's a lower strut brace makes a lof of difference.

 

And yes, i will get a new one sometime.

[Milli]

What kind of difference it makes? More grip?

[Mb]

More stability. Makes the whole front end stiffer so the steering input is better.

[Mb]

You guys missed quite some upgrades.
