No pics, i have an ebay one in my fox.

It really doesn't do much. Not a whole lot of load transmitted into the rear shocks laterally. It probably does just help stiffen up that entire section though, but don't expect a dramatic difference

It's more of a waste of money than a front STB (verts aside)

If you want to stiffen up the rear shock tower get a panhard bar instead. It connects the two rear frame rails AND locates your rear-end. Two birds with one stone..

I've been runing a lot of autocross and road racing lately that's really the only reason i was looking at buying it. I know strut and shock towers are pretty much a waste but i'm trying to get the car as stiff as possible. you think an off brand e bay shock tower brace would work exactly the same as a namebrand one?

Same peice, all that's different is who makes it or what material it's made from.

Brands won't matter for that particular peice
