Default Installed the Spoon Front X Brace

I was one of the raffle winners at the Kami Speed Meet and chose the Spoon Front X Brace, I installed it today and wow what a difference.

I didn't really expect much but it is very noticeable, it feels much stiffer upon turn in to a corner and it feels so much more stable thru the entire corner. The feel thru the wheel is that the wheel turns much quicker, more precise, and I can actually feel the rear of the car more thru the seat. (not the best description but hopefully you get the idea). I think I am going for the rear bar next, out of my own pocket this time.

If anyone was ever considering an X brace I highly recommend it. BTW, the install took all of 15 minutes (with the help of a friends lift at his shop).

Thanks Kami Speed for my new favorite Mod!!!

Here is a link to the part if anyone is interested: http://www.kamispeed.com/product_info.php?...0021e99a30a3e73

Oh the fun when kids learn about things!

I thought everyone already had an X brace and yes it is very noticable. I have had the MUZ X Brace for at least 5 years and it is great!

If you really want to experience the value of the xbrace. Go drive on a stretch of rough road.

remember the great debates in here over whether the xbrace has any value at all?

do a search on it. lots and lots of opinions.

start with a bigger front sway.

I am running a smaller rear sway.

But I have a MUZ X-Brace, that's waiting to be installed.
