strange how the thread is missed:

i cannot imagine how anyone can say that they dont make a considerable difference but to each his own. i would recommend the 3 piece cusco before any x brace.

IMO, it is very very WORTH IT. chasis stiffening has been one of the most rewarding modding projects for me yet. (muz x bace, s2x 4 pt STB, cusco floor)

Nope, I saw it. I'm pretty sold just on your recommendation alone. I did the stereo upgrade because you said it was of benefit and I'm super happy with it!

But I wanted a little more consensus and was digging through the "search" of the Cusco.

If you crawl under the car and look where they are mounted, you'll have your answer.

ckit, i recommended the stereo? dont remember that, but if i had known you were thinking about it, it would have pushed it. the luck 06 guys have the sound coming from right behind their heads where it helps the most. glad u thought i helped. in addition, seat heaters are used everyday.

check out these pics as ubetit recommended.




another person to ask is Ben at bulletproof who had them on his crazy car. he's the one who endorsed them to me and i owe him a thanks.

Not specifically to me, but you had commented on it being one of your best mods. Aaaaah. I'm probably going to spend the money. I'm planning on going to WTD 07 this year and want to have all the handling benefit that I can. Maybe UK alignment will be next.

for $300 you could get something that gave you something you cold notice. I had them on my car and sold it to save some weight, i notice no difference without it, and i saved 20 pounds so it probally slowed me down in all honesty
