driving without X brace any problems with verts?

imo, our verts need all the help they can get in the stiffening department. i'd do what i could to keep it if i were you.

i'd also put subframes on my list

i ran with no strut tower brace for probably a year (the stock one didn't clear my street heat) and i was amazed at how much better the ride was after i got one and put it on.

after a while i started to feel like i didn't really want to drive my car because of the way it rode. now my main focus is on making it a car i want to drive again. a big part of that is making it handle well on the road.

Wow. I did not know this. I am going to get one that clears mine as well.

with the street heat i ran for about a year before i got a stb that fit. it felt much tighter after putting in the stb.

then i went to the kb and had to lose the stb again i also went to the coil-overs

i am sure the towers were flexxing because after i took the kb out and back to n/a, i went to put the stb back on and i couldn't get some of the bolt holes in the towers to line up with the holes in the brace. they were too far apart. i believe the coil-overs put more stress on the towers and caused them to seperate a little.
