I dont stock these, but if you check at www.t5d5.org you will find some information on a group purchase that was done a while back....may be some still not taken up.
Regards, Don.

To the OP, the UK reseller for UR is a company called Automac, website is www.automac.co.uk. Takes about 4 weeks for the items to arrive as they are custom ordered, but pricing is actually quite reasonable.
As Don has said, have a look on www.t5d5.org, there are a number of users there with them fitted, many of whom have tried them out on tracks as well as road. Shame that some other supposed 'experts' can't actually use their cars in a similar fashion without then having to dismantle it all over again. |

Actually, you'd be best having a look at
http://forums.t5d5.org/p2p1850-other...l__ultraracing And having a word with pyaap on the T5D5 forum who may be able to assist you in obtaining them at a good price. There is a settled customer base in the UK who as a group on that forum managed to buy and fit a considerable number of these at a very decent price, how you'd be best served visiting the US site of Volvospeed for advice bearing in mind you are a UK consumer I have absolutely no idea - maybe Russ would like to elucidate... Then again, that might require a straight answer, and I'm already waiting for enough of those from him already (as are others) ... .

Maybe Russ could also explain why he is the UK distributor for JE Racing Dynamix but yet when he is emailed regarding the purchase of there goods he takes it upon himself not to return emails?

I posted out over 20 of the T5D5 group buy Ultra Racing bars, they are of exceptional quality and fit very well. On several of the cars with them fitted I have noticed and improvement in handling. For your C70 I would recommend the rear under floor bar and if the car is not too low then the front under floor bar also. Don't bother with the brace that goes in the spare wheel well as it's pointless. I trust you have already got a Volvo strut brace as a starting point?

The V70 braces will fit a C70 hard top.
