I had one on my old car and it made quite a bit of difference, does anyone here have any experience with them on a Versa?

I see there's carbon steel for $135: http://thmotorsports.com/dc_sp...07-03

Or the much cheaper option of aluminum for $45: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...44245

Just debating if it'd really be worth the extra $90 for a part not many people will ever see.

Most of the members here have DC Sports, Tanabe, or NISMO. There may be some different ones out there that I can't think of. They make a difference in the handling, in either case (alum or steel), but the difference is up to you. I know one guy that has the aluminum off Ebay and his car handles well with 17" tires. But we've never tried a steel on the same car to compare them.

Thanks, I'll definitely have to get one then. The brand name ones look really nice, but since no one will see it I'll probably go with eBay.

I plan on getting all of my suspension parts from MicroImage. I would rather have most things made by the same company.
