S40 and V40 are listed as the same part number, though it does specifically state 2.0T & T4

It'll fit fine, I have the Sparco brace on my 97 V40. It'll fit any model/year S/V40.

I made one and still have the strut top spares i made, all that is needed is to fabricate some end plates and weld a bar insitu. They're easy enough to make if people are having trouble getting one.

Also, for Mitsubishi EVO 1-4 (not 100% sure if all of these) should fit.
Mine's custom made, but tried on EVO4 in the mech's garage and it was bolt on.
