I got locking bolts and they dont seem to make any noticable difference to me at all. BUT these things really show to be effective on the track they say.

I've got a set of Ultrex strut braces etc on order, pack looks like this:



Jimmy (Conan) installed this on his car and noticed a big improvement in turn-in etc

The package is pretty cheap IMO (only $280 for front & rear strut brace, h brace), and even though its replica stuff of Cusco products, the build quality looks the goods. I will be installing it all within the next 3 weeks; myself and Darren (Spec IV) will figure out the H-brace and hopefully make a DIY as we put them on.
