Default Looking for hinge pin brace

Hello all,

I just ordered a ZX5 and found this forum when browsing for some tips ans tricks to use for the upcoming races.

From what I've read, the front hinge pin brace breaks easely and best needs replacing by an aluminium part. I've mailed Keith from www.glowplug.com and he answered that he can't deliver them anymore. So my question is : where can I (online) buy an alu front hinge pin brace ? I've googled for it, but can't seem to find it.

My first priority is to make the car reliable before I move on to fancy bits like CF shock towers or Ti screws. Are there any other parts that need replacing to make the car reliable ?

Thanks

Speed tech one looks good and they are quick and friendly.
Kyosho are also bringing out their own brace very soon but no idea when It will appear..

by the way, I didnt buy this brace from Speedtech....I bought some Ti screws. I'm hanging on for the Kyosho brace, or until I break it, whichever is sooner.

Thanks guys.
It's a shame the 10° caster steering knuckles are out of stock. I need those too. I suppose the 7° parts are included in the kit, but do the 4°'s have any use ?
