^ I'm going to have to try that. I really feel like the brace makes a difference in handling, and I like feel like it protects the underside of the car as well if I were to scrape something.

I'm sure the stiffness of the Tein Flex helps big time with body roll. I was looking into the JIC coilovers and they have spring rates of 560/560 for the Z set--I know the Flex's are even stiffer than this.

How is the ride normally? Jarring?

I used structural two part foam and made solid graphite shafts for stringers in certain areas here it could be used, into my old race car. made a whole world of a difference. I'm still contemplating on doing it to the G35.
