I'm thinking about using my old KLA alloy brace between the castor mounts. Not sure it needs to be too beefy there on a road car.

Paul I see your questions about rear brace on PCGB .
It does not attach to the body but cantilevers the exhaust from the gearbox . I needed this as the rear floor has been cut away in the 924 .
You could modify one as it already has gearbox attachment which I thought about to brace gearbox . But I was concerned about the stress put on the flange of the gearbox .
It would be better to attach a brace at another point on the gearbox in my opinion .

Thanks Simon, I guess if mounted to the shell it could transmit some noise too.
