Default Anybody have this underbody brace?

Ran across this on a Japanese website. Says it's for Soarers with 1JZ for both auto and manual. Claims it stiffens the chassis and lists the benefits that typically come with a stiffer chassis (better cornering, steering response, straight line performance, etc.)

Has 8 mounting points, using 4 of the existing oem bolts and 4 that attach to the body (no drilling required).

Wanted to see your opinions on this.

Do you do a road-racing or autocross at all? Just curious why you think this is needed because I don't think these cars have a ton of chassis flex to begin with. If you were going to add any chassis bracing this looks like it goes right where I'd put it though - Between the A & B-Pillars.
