Spoon has done for my S2000 what Jeri Ryan (Star Trek Voyager's 7 of 9) does for teen age boys.

Had the Spoon front lower x brace installed a couple of months ago. Results were spectacular. Today had the Spoon rear lower brace installed by Weseloh Honda. My S2000 now feels as solid as my friend's 2000 Porsche 996 (Cabriolet Carrera). Solid. Stiff. Great.

I don't know about the X brace, but I do know about SevenOfNine, oh yeah.

BTW turn in is definitely more crisp. Car actually seems quieter. Don't know how it effects tail out behaviour. Speaking of which, Jeri says hello.

how much do the front and rear braces weigh?

 

I think the front x-brace is a great addition along with a STB. I agree with the recommendation.

The rear brace is simply a nice looking replacement for the stock piece and I saw no difference (I only do one change at a time in order to evaluate the results). If I had it to do again I would pass on it.

 

I too notice zero difference with the spoon rear vs the stock.

The X brace makes a world of difference tho.

 

The Stiffening? It sounds like a Stephen King novel. If you don't mind me asking, what did this stiffening set you back?
