hopefully it fares better than the Evo version did.....way too many people had cracking issues with the damper and/or bracket developing cracks (myself included)

I admit we did have problems with the EVO brackets but we did not ever expect the vehicles to make so much power to torque the brackets like that.

We will always honor our products and Stand behind our product 100%.
All EVO customers have and will be honored for trade in's for their brackets.

Rest assured that this bracket will not have this problem.
We have tested this bracket through and through.

We have Gusseted the heck out of all our brackets, i am 100% sure that these will never have that problem.

But to most people im just talking garbage.
let our products speak for themselves.

I see you don't have a strut bar on that car. Will this damper allow us to use a strut tower bar?

Yes you can still use the OEM strutbar.
It actually bolts the 2 bolts in front of the strutbar bolts.
And it DOES NOT interfer with the Strutbar at all.
It runs right beside the OEM strutbar.

In the picture it looks like the damper body is rubbing on that wiring loom. Is that just the picture angle? Hopefully it isn't. Also will this fit the G35 or will there be a seperate G35 version? I'm sure it's the same.

the wiring harness can be moved down to clear the bracket but it does sit on top of it, just barely touching it.

I'd test it, but I'm in FL.

How will this damper compare price-wise to the stillen piece?

It can't be used with the Crawford strut bar.

That is definitely bolted to the front 2 strut tower bar bolts. I don't see it working for guys with manifold spacers. I also see some engine cover fitament problems arising.
