Installed Strut Brace
I installed my CP Racing Strut Brace. I love it, you can totally feel the difference in these cars. When I take high speed turns, you can barely feel it, and there is almost no body roll.
I recommend getting a strut brace for your 7, whether you make it or if you buy it from CP.

Not trying to discount your purchase or anything but I added the bar to my last car ('83 RX-7) and seen litttle difference. IMO, you should first look at a beefy sway bar and poly bushing on the front end and then go to the tower brace. The sway bar and bushings will give you a much more noticable improvement in handling/cornering with reduced body role and tighter steering - You may have already done this but, since it wasn't mentioned....

I agree, I was looking at the sway bars from RB but I dont want to spend that kind of money. Can you recommend a place that has quality sway bars and how much they are!

Are the racing beat sway bars the best? My friend said something about suspension techniques being better? I dunno. I'm about to start on my suspension. Also, this will sound stupid, but what's CP? :?

I thought the RB sway bar was reasonable ($121.00) - the tower brace from CP is cheaper than the RB bar but won't deliver the same results (they are manufactured in Canada i believe - always on e-bay). On the quality issue, the RB bar is great for the money - others are typically more expensive with simialr results(IMO)

Which one did you just install? 2 or 4 point? Is there a noticeable difference? Because the 4 point requires some drilling IIRC, and I'd really rather not do that.
