9428, Strut Tower Braces
Posted by SaberKhan, May-17-02 05:01 AM
I just installed front and rear STB's yesterday. I also have KYB GR-2 shocks. I definitely noticed the difference. Car feels much stiffer through the turns, and even feels more stable at high speeds on the highway. Might just be my imagination, but it seems I dont wheelhop *quite* as much. Might just be in my head. Very good mod :D I also put some carbon fiber Altezza's in, but thats just a rice mod.

:P Na, not yet. Not going back till I get this batch of mods on. Header/p&p manifold, bored TB and solid motor mount. I'll probably wait till it cools off or we get a cold front, then you can bet your ass you'll see high 14's/low 15's. }>

Hey Jake, i am planning on gettin the STB's on my ride too, but did you just put those on by them selves, or did you do the shocks at the same time? Kinda curious..I can get some Reactive STB's for like 28 bucks a piece, just don't know about em, have heard that reactive's stuff ain't all that...What kind did you get?

I put the shocks in a while back, when I spun the hub off of my stock clutch. Hell, for 28 bucks, get'em. Truthfully, I couldnt even tell you what brand they are. My buddy has a business called SC Racing, he just ordered them for me. I didnt even ask him to. I'm gonna take pics, and find out what brand. :D
