New Suspension Toys :)
maybe you havent heard of this brace
d3 designs double xbrace.. 6 mounting points compared to 4 on the neuspeed...
here what it looks like
it is available on www.dthreedesigns.com
i was the first em2 ever with this brace... i tsted fitment for d3 because they were unsure if it will fit an em2 but i can confrm it will
heres pics of it on my car:
anyways nice stuff.. justt bad choice on the brace
this brace costs only $215 + 35 shipping but if you ever break it, smash it they WILL replace it!!!!! go search on ClubRSX for people who tried this warranty
NOTE: i must say.. this **** is a BISH to install.. i suggest if you install this brace to go from the front lower control arms.. then to the subframe bolts and to the final bolts under the floorboard.. the floorboardbolts may not line up but you can use a screwdriver and use one hole to algn it while u screw the other bolt in the other hole.. this is how stiff this brace is haha

Rep Power: 338 the X brace serves a different purpose.... it's more in the lines of strut bars, which are chassis braces. For daily use, upgrades sway bar makes more of a difference.

I have both an Xbrace and rear sway, I put the X on at the same time as my coilovers so I don`t have a reference for with/without on my current setup. However I did swap the 22mm rear sway in last year and it's freakin solid. Watch out for raised manhole covers! There's one at Yonge and 401, heading north in the rightmost lane....almost weekly I clank my X off it, it shakes the whole freakin car.
