Rear strut brace?

[T-BaGGeR]

Ok so I have one strut bar and 6 other "Braces" in the back..
It's hard to get a pic that shows all of them... I'll see if I can dig one up.

EDIT: found



There's also a Jay's floor bar in front of the back seats...

Wow! OCD!

just an FYI to any DC5 owners hoping to provide useful comments like "bracing didnt do much to my car", this thread is started about a DC2, which is based on a chassis designed around a quarter of a centrury ago...

one of ther major selling points of the DC5 was the over 100% increase (yes, one hundred per cent) in torsional rigidity over the DC2R... http://www.integradc5.com/features/

in addition, the OP has a pre-98 VTiR - which had none of the chassis rigidity modifications the 98+ cars had...

and yes, adding a x-brace (seat-belt bolt to strut tops) to my DC2 for supersprinting massively improved rigidity and required a change to suspension and alignment settings.

i also added front fender braces, which also helped.

What brand X brace and fender brace you use?

Ok thanks. Do you just use the X brace or do you use it with the horizontal bars at the strut and c pillar?
