Targa people, would you be interested in...

[Clint]

I have a really good friend of mine who is a fabricator has made a "targa brace"...

This brace is made to eliminate that annoying wiggle you get wile driving around with the targa off.
We are thinking of fabricating more and I am wondering if this would be of interest to people who want more stability with the targa off.

Nice workmanship in that!

Wow that was fast IJ haha

Good craftsmanship,

but no.

Having a bar like that would be worse than just keeping the top on.

says you.....

 

[j3pz]

i wouldnt mind having one, but it would have to flow with the style of the car

 

[pparrigo]

Depends on the price and how it looks with the car. I like the idea though. Nicely fabricated to boot.

My Weezl Wings look good in the car and it definately helps eliminate the shimmies and shakes. This one is a little smaller, but should still look good while in the car. When Weezl designed his, it seemed everybody wanted one............until it was time to get one. Then of cours, everybody was broke. Good luck selling these.....you're going to need it.

that shaking and wiggling is pissing me off enuff to be interrested 8)

Why does everyone ignore subframe connectors? They'd let you eliminate the shimmy, AND keep the top completely open!

 

[bountykilla0118]

any links to who makes some?

Where do you get these said subframe connectors?

 

[ForcedTorque]

I always wanted a weezlwing, but was as broke then as I am now. I would definitely be interested depending on price and timing.

 

[Keros]

Yeah, depending on shipping to canada...

None that I've seen for the MKIII. The only thing I keep coming up with when I search is some from Driven Concepts for the MKIV and some for Mustangs.

 

[10secdream]

I know all the mustang guys add the subframe connectors but I have never heard about this done on a MK3.

 

[Doward]

Nobody makes any - why not put some R&D into those? I'd do it myself (hell, I've done the Probe pistons and ES Bushings) but I've got too much else going on.

Like a 13" front brake kit for ~$700, using off the shelf components. After I complete those, subframes are next on my list of things to do.

Funky_monkey had a GB on them some time ago. I think he only sold like 10-12 kits.

To get back on topic:

Ummm...NO. Not true.
I have a set of Weezle Wings myself. There is a noticeable difference in chassis flex with the brace installed vs top off with nothing.

These look like a good alternative.
