Do they exist on 3rd gen magnas?

I know white line do a front strut brace, but have not seen anything about a rear strut?

No they don't exist. due to location of the strut top you would need to remove the parcel tray cover to fit one and it wouldn't be an easy job to fab one up to fit the location.

IMO rear sway bar by whiteline will give more then enough stability in the rear!

I personally have never done one, they shouldn't be too hard. I'll wait for someone who has done one to chime in on that question.

gee,how can you go from talking about rear STRUT brace to waffling along about a rear SWAY bar.

Totally different topics,to the OP ,Magnas are a sedan,there is no place for a rear STRUT brace ,its not a hatch with nothing supporting the rear towers ,you have the whole rear parcel shelf and back end tying it all together.

Or you could get a rear strut brace like I have on the R31 and have no rear parcel shelf :P

That being said, no one to my knowledge makes a rear strut brace for a Magna.
