I purchased the front and rear Ultra Racing braces so I'm hoping they'll improve the feel of the car even further once installed.
Definitely let me know please? Even if you have to PM me. I was planning to do that exact setup. My original plan was to go with all TOM's Racing parts but a friend of mine told me they were cheap and that any eBay seller would be of better quality, so i'm def not paying 1k for a subpar suspension product. My exact plan was to get the Ultra Racing F/R Underbraces and the Top Speed 6 Link then powdercoat them white to match the UR bars. I already have Intrax F/R Sways but I want some links because I heard they make the biggest difference.

Thanks for all the replies, can never learn too much from all the experience you guys are sharing! It's been a busy week so I haven't had time to thank each of you individually but just wanted to update that I just got a reply from TMEngineering that the sway bars are currently not available from Daizen, with no ETA. They mentioned they may have a front bar in stock but again (and correct me if I'm wrong), I don't think it's good to mix a front Daizen and a rear TRD (from TMEngineering and Sewell respectively).
