Default Question About Tom's Advox Kit

I am curious about "Tom's Advox Kit," has anyone try the kit or maybe just front upper suspension brace?

Please leave a feedback, if you have tried them?


Thanks in advance!!!

didn't have them on the 3gs, but i had couple of their braces on my gs400. it improved handling, but marginally. coilovers and sways still did most of the "fix". the car did get stiffer though and more rigid, so going up / down driveways or so you might hear more flexing sound

Ive been thinking about that front brace for a while now. I definitely want to tighten my ride up without the cost of coilovers. Simple bolt on installation is attractive too. here's to hoping someone else tries it out.
