Because the strut tower brace bolts in (you will have to drill holes), it's something I would recommend. You will feel a difference out on course with a strut tower brace.

Most rear shock tower braces weld in, so I would wait until you're sure you'll be doing a lot of autocross events in the car. There's a lot of debate about whether or not rear shock tower braces do anything. Having driven cars with and without them, I believe they make a difference. But, many people will disagree with me.

All the cars I've owned have already had rear control arms installed so I have no experience without them. BUT, I think the common consensus is they're a necessary mod. Personally, I wouldn't install all the mods you plan to and skimp on rear control arms. You're going to have a great handling car
