There isn't a rear upper strut brace available for the K11.

I may have access to rear upper braces, and the Cross Brace that Russia K11 fitted, but only at the end of the year.

Cool guys thanks!the German one would probably cost a bit...but it's what i'm after..the X brace from the Russian K11 is really nice but the plan is to make it as close to a van as poss...beginning to wonder if a rear brace is necessary?
A roll cage is out of the budget too...:wasntme: Basically, if i gutted the back end, would the car be floppy lol?Cheers for suggestions lads (Y)

you wouldnt notice much diffrent with a rear brace. for the price your paying i would leave it or just knock one up out of tube....
the micra has a axle so its gonna be stiff over an indipendent rear suspension set up like on a civic.
the rear flex on the micra is gonna be in the rear foot wells and up high near the roof liner. IMO

Cheers S.P. I wasn't too sure how much the rear seats etc would add to rigidity anyway...i've seen micra's with just front seats and no bracing before...reckon that's the way i'll do it (Y)
*Update*
I've put the spanners away and just made the parcel shelf + speakers/sub easily removable with connectors from something i dismantled earlier...can't whip the seats out now, as i'm forever finding new passengers to ferry to work etc. Bummer. Cheers for the advice though folks
Also, i managed nine chairs in the car at the weekend, and enough baggage today whilst helping with a house move to show up the 50mm lowered guys lmao!
"Did you just fart?"
"Nope, i think that was the back wheels..."
