GTspec bracing
First off props to GTspec on such awesome products and Brice at Race-Roots for such amazing service.
So, I purchased the front strut brace and the 6 point under brace, install is straight forward for the upper strut brace: Two notes, 1. have a helper it really helps. and 2. leave everything loose till you get it all put in. The under brace went on as I was doing my mid-pipe so the car was on a lift which helped. If you have an impact wrench or an air gun it will help but if not it takes a lot of muscle (and a really long breaker bar).
I never thought of the Rx chassis as sloppy or loose but the car feels so much tighter and under control. The car feels a little stiffer over the railroad tracks but it is definitely worth it. No track time yet but on a closed road I got to open it up on some twisties and had much more confidence than before pushing the car to its limits.
I would definitely recommend GTspec's products and Brice will hook you up!
Now does anyone know of a good shop in north east Florida? I need a place to help me out with my next project for the Rx.
