richie's is excellent, except the fitment is a bit too high on my car for some reason; it rubs the hood even with the liner taken off.

Now I just want him to make a rear one that is actually functional (bolts onto the strut towers, unlike stillen's, which bolts onto the sides of the trunk.

I definitely love the no-logo look though. Means business.

I had the ARC installed. Difference was night and day. Now it is a given that ARC is pricey but, you usually get what you pay for.

where is that VRT thread. I can't access the one linked in this thread. I'm really beginning to like their design. Either that or Carbing or Circuit. Someone said Circuit won't clear the damper ***** on coilovers, which I don't want to happen on mine... so I think it's down to VRT or Carbing.

Seems to have disappeared. Perhaps one needs to be a Premier member to view now? A bit surprising, since I personally posted in that thread.

VRT has gone bye-bye due to shady business practices. Relentless Autosports took the design with them when they left VRT. The member's name was wa2good, but he has been banned. I believe the moderators know how to reach him.

BTW, I was one of the first to install this STB, and it's fantastic. I still luv it, because it really does work

yeah, i posted in it a while back too... it's the "gaging interest for a new strut brace" or something, correct? I'm really leaning towards the VRT design due to it's mounting on several of the suspension parts, versus just the sheet metal up top. It seems like it would work even better than the Carbing and Circuit. I'm just not a huge fan of the hinge joint of the bar to the mounting brackets, but that's a minor inconvenience I am willing to live with.

I'm running the NRG FSTB, Hotchkis F/R sways, and GT-Spec f/r lower tie bars and rear lateral brace. They're all awesome. I've had the sways and lower braces for a couple years now, and can't imagine driving without them.
