Just about any kind of brace will help a car with handling.

You really should have a set of proper suspension before you add all those toys on....

Japanese is famous for making those square brackets, whatever bar...... to try to fix most japanese car's weak point, JELLO FRAME!

Actually you may want to try to fill up the frame's internal with those high dense styrofoam as a first step (IF you are not going to spot weld the frame) that may be the best way to start...

I think if you're throwing a Versa around enough to need one, then the chassis staying straight and rigid is gonna be the least of your worries.

And as an added bonus you can take your V to the beach or lake on the weekends because it will now float!

hahaha, it's inside the frame, not outside the frame!

so your versa will not float at all!

But that is the cheapest way to strengthen the frame, it just absorb so much shocks, and vibrations

This technology is on the market for like almost 10-15 yr already, only thing is you need to drill a small hole to put those liquid in, then weld patch it later on

Other than that, skills is very important, if you spill it, you will love the new scent inside your car, and the stickyness of it. (They are as sticky as superglue)

Actually this technology is more for street car rather than race car because race car will just strip all the way down to nothing to do mods, and you can spot weld it at that moment. Plus spot weld is lighter & stronger. (And they dont' care road noise)
