I noticed a difference, but only when pushing the car. normal driving it feels about the same as before the parts were installed. I noticed more steering feedback/tighter steering feel when the cars weight transfer it is a little more predictable

Parts installed on my AP2:

Comptech Ti tower bar (front)
Oem tower bar (rear)
Nuespeed X-Brace
ASM floor bar
Comptech rear lower tie bar

i think the only really worth adding is the 4pt front stress bar. The rest I think just add weight and remove money. I could be wrong.

The four point will help more than just a regular Tower bar. The cross member in the front of the S under the intake is pretty beefy and allows very little flex if any already.

I think its the reason alot of time attack S2000's dont run a front tower bar at all (regular or four point). I have a comptech Ti tower bar and dont think it really did anything , but it looks nice . A four point will do more, but I think it will still be minimal .

I would reccomend an x-brace and floor bar over a four point tower bar anyday.

The OEM Tower bar is the stock bar. I think they had them in AP1's too. I have an AP2 and when you remove the carpet by the spare tire there is a hollow tower bar thaht lays on the spare tire shelf and goes form shock tower to shock tower

This is the floor bar. ASM calls it a Floor Ladder Bar
