vote strut tower brace or no???

I say in 50/50...

If it was me..I would shed the $100 on something else instead of a brace

I believe there was an improvement in mine after I put one on. It's hard to explain, but I'm convinced that it reduced cowl shake. But I also have a convertible, and body stiffness sucks anyway.

I'm less excited about having it for appearance sake. I think it adds nothing there.

I've worked with suspension engineers on a number of programs, and the loads on the towers are pretty high. There is always a concern about inboard flex. (on the other hand, if it moved a lot, wouldn't the fender start touching the hood edge?)

The goods; it certainly can't hurt.

Bottom line... it's your car and your money.

The only real experince i have had with it making a big differance was on my mustang i think that without it the car would have been totaled. instead it bent the front end in front of it. So i have seen it save a car i guess.

its a good hand support when your towering over your car trying to work on it.

the car feels more solid hitting speed bumps, doesnt creak as much but thats about it.

x2, my front end feels alot more solid with it on. helped a few rattles with me as well

i had a 98 t/a that had more creaks than a 140 year old woman and the strut tower brace eliminated about 90% of them

LOL...you are right, it does have a use!!!

[cjmatt]

yeah i totally forgot about that

I noticed a difference on my car with it. It stiffened up the front end. There was a lot less flex. The car felt more planted on off ramps. And when jacking up the front I used to be able to jack each side on the front and the other would stay on the ground. Now it lifts the whole front end when jacking from one side.

ive been in the market for a STB, there, imo, a good mod to do for not much money.

I belive they are more for looks than anything...

[archemedes]

if it only bolts on it won't stiffen much since bolts loosen, and flex. I think every little bit helps though

i have the BMR one but spent 30$ more on the chrome alley one which is a lil beefer but there is a hotchicks one that i hear is good, but cost almost over 200 comapred to the 100 for bmr.
