I'm not convinced about the rear strut brace. The S15 already has the boot brace and corner reinforcement brackets which reduce flex substantially.

Will the rear strut brace not just enhance that further??

Although if your worried about the harshness of your car as is, maybe not just a good idea :no

yes and no, the rear brace is right at the back of the boot, but the strut is to stop flex in the top of the suspension turret iirc? tbh honest though the main reason, and i think this is a valid reason....................ITS SHINEY lol
:p


the quality of the ride im worried about is the harshness of the spring rate i believe, have order the soft springs today so should sort it out ill let you all know how it feels,

out of interest what spring rate did you all go for? i currently have 8/6 but will soon be having 6/5 :thumbs:

I've 6/4 coilovers also. There fine. I also have a set of springs for sale if anyones interested. I have fitted a Rear strut brace and found it a big difference. I actually couldn't believe the difference it made to rear of car.
