Soya Supersonic July 10, 2004 Share July 10, 2004 if u custom make, do it to improve beyond wat the aftermarket can offer for yr model and not simply for cost. plus, there are many grades of steel and aluminium available wif varying degrees of rigidity. if it ain't rigid enuf, it's a waste of time. remember, we get wat we pay for.

Normal_aspirated Clutched July 25, 2004 Share July 25, 2004 Nope, when you do a very tight cornering at higher speed...... Will provide rigidity to the macpherson strut suspension. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
