Just looking for some clarification on the strut brace I'm looking at buying.
http://www.rhdjapan....bcs-subaru.html
This is the one. It says its compatible for a Subaru Legacy Touring Wagon BH5 EJ20 (My car being a Subaru outback BH 2001)
Why do they specify engine size?
Will it not fit my car because mine is an EJ25 as the engine is too big?
Any opinion will be great, as I'd rather not find out the hard way
Anyway, torqued to spec is just the manuals way of saying 'we couldn't get it any tighter, see if you can'.

I have a cusco bar that clears the H6 engine, the one in your link states compatibility only with turbo models though.

That's what I'm curious about. I don't see how they would differ?

Yeah I'm sure it'll clear, I searched online and found another H6 with the same brace I had so I knew it would definitely fit, peace of mind really

The turbo one will clear an intercooler and the non-turbo one will clear the airbox.
That was all I could think of it being Tim
Ill have a further search around and see if anyone managed to get one of these on an N/A

So your strut bar was for a turbo model originally?
