GrimmSpeed Strut Tower Brace Red – 2013-2021 Scion FR-S / Subaru BRZ / Toyota 86

Sharper Turn-In on the FT86/BRZ — GrimmSpeed Strut Tower Brace

The GrimmSpeed Strut Tower Brace in Red for the 2013-2021 Scion FR-S, Subaru BRZ, and Toyota 86 connects the front strut towers with a triangulated aluminum brace that reduces lateral chassis flex under hard cornering. The FT86/BRZ chassis is well-regarded for its balance and steering precision — the GrimmSpeed strut bar makes that precision even more consistent by reducing the strut tower flex that introduces variability into the front suspension geometry under load.

Triangulated Aluminum — Chassis Rigidity Without Weight Penalty

The GrimmSpeed strut bar uses triangulated aluminum construction to provide rigid connection between the front strut towers. Under hard cornering, the front strut towers experience lateral flex as each strut pushes and pulls in opposite directions — this flex softens the steering response and makes the front suspension geometry inconsistent through corners. The brace limits this flex, keeping the front geometry more stable and producing more predictable, linear turn-in response.

Bolt-In at Factory Strut Tower Mounting Points

The GrimmSpeed strut bar bolts directly to the factory strut tower mounting points on the FT86/BRZ — no drilling, no modification to the chassis. The adjustable center section sets to the correct length at installation. The red powdercoat coordinates with other GrimmSpeed hardware and the FT86/BRZ engine bay color scheme.

Straight From Subispeed

The GrimmSpeed strut bar is the correct first chassis upgrade for an FT86/BRZ build. The car’s chassis balance is already excellent stock — the strut bar makes that balance more consistent under hard cornering by reducing the one flex point that affects front suspension geometry repeatability. At the price point and installation simplicity of a strut bar, this is the highest handling-per-dollar upgrade available for the FT86/BRZ. The red powdercoat looks intentional alongside other engine bay hardware.

About GrimmSpeed

GrimmSpeed is a Pacific Northwest-based performance parts manufacturer that has been building Subaru-specific hardware since 2003. Founded by engineers who were actively building and racing Subarus themselves, GrimmSpeed’s catalog reflects the priorities of people who use the products they make — turbo inlets, downpipes, uppipes, boost controllers, intercoolers, and engine bay accessories designed specifically for the EJ and FA-series Subaru platforms. Every GrimmSpeed product is engineered, tested, and refined in-house, and their focus on Subaru means the fitment and function reflect a deep understanding of the specific platforms they cover. Subispeed carries the full GrimmSpeed catalog because their approach to product development consistently produces parts that perform as advertised and fit correctly out of the box.
