 FRONT LOWER BRACE BAR
I honestly couldn't feel any difference with the OEM lower brace. However, I'd already installed Koni Sport adjustable struts, H&R Sports, PowerFlex bushings and Dunlop Direzzas. But I prolly won't remove it, since it provides a measure of oilpan protection. Makes me wonder if an upper strut brace is worth it, either. I autocross and track this car. Your mileage may vary... __________________
