Where would i get one? New or second hand?
and how much would i expect to pay for one?
From Dylan
$39.96us excluding shipping in a raw finish (un-painted) Christmas sale price..on CIP1..Go to checkout and calculate postage to your postcode to get a total..Or try George or Vintage VW..
Theres a minimum spend required for shipping..I think its $50us so you may need to buy an extra item..
Thanks Heaps Mate!

Hi Dylan
They are not hard to make yourself.
I've attached a pattern that you can take to a shop that can profile cut steel plate.
Just use some thin wall 25 mm tube.
This way you can custom make it to fit your car, you don't need adjustment
Steve
Even adjustable ones aren't hard to make.
I knocked up that one of mine out of a bunch of scrap metal laying around.
mines from a silvia that had the ends redrilled.
Hi
You can even make one from angle iron and use the 2 rear most bolts.

Whats the Advantages of a adjustable one Joel?
I Think i'll make one up myself. Or use a silvia one.
From Dylan
Just allows the strut tower alignment to be fine tuned if they are slightly out.
That seems like a good idea, Cause it it is'nt 100% right it may be out and even after welding it it may be out so i think ill use the design of
steves he put up the attachment but ill make it adjustable.
From Dylan
Also allows to preload the towers a little to help hold everything ridged, I imagine it would also reduce resonance/harmonics on hard cornering.
Why not chuck in some adjustable strut tops from K-mac. mmmm extra caster 
plus a little extra neg (1-2o) camber for those days when you feel like a fanging. 
Volks Conversions on the Gold Coast used to do one. But be aware that it will not be the nice fully chromed one that was seen in the pictures, it may
just be unplated steel.
Doesnt matter how you get one though, its probably one of the cheapest and easiest handling upgrades you can do to a super bug.
