Triangulated strut tower brace... Definitely a NICE improvement. I highly recommend it for ANY convertible S13, and it'd probably be real nice on a coupe.

Steering is SO much more responsive, and cornering is FAR flatter.

Took me about an hour to install.

Was there a specific reason you went with this Tri-Strutbar as opposed to the regular ones?

The 'vert suffers from cowl shake, and this appears to have reduced it significantly.

Any strut brace that connects in MORE than one location will be more effective - I learned this LONG ago with a Neuspeed bar on an 84 CRX.

you can probably trim some of that install time off by not getting hits off the oxygen tank

Brace is made by CP Racing. Several of our sponsors carry it.
