Hi all, My brother has just bought one of these Front strut/brace kits to put on his commodore, just wondering if it actually does much in the way of body twisting or rolling or whatever or is just a cheap and nasty bolt-on 'race-style' mod that is just for looks? He's the sort that fits chrome valve covers and can feel the car running better lol. Anyway here's an ebay link, might have to copy it all and paste, any ideas folks? http://cgi.ebay.com.au/N...5436QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

You would have to be doing some serious track work with sticky tyres to get any benefit from it,on a road car it is more for the look!!!!!
if it ain't broke we can improve it.
