I think this could probably be made for less than $20. If we weren't unibody we wouldn't need this anyway.

they work and help A LOT... it tightens up the front end suspension a bit more... matched with some solid , beefy tension control rods, fender braces and strut tower bar... you'd almost have like a cage up front.. lol

BUT... imo, I'd rather go with the Nismo power brace. Its not that much more, and its 1 piece instead of connecting 2 pieces together with nuts and bolts.

goes between the tension rod brackets... that pic tanabe sustec provided is misleading imo... that 4 pt brace isn't for the s chassis, just the 2 pt. one. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I also thought that it was missleading. I was going to get the nismo one until i saw that "crap." Thanks a lot guys, just trying to get my car in order, suspension wise, before I put down some power. Brakes upgraded during the suspension upgrades.
