actually i bet that thing would do some good. You know that FEED makes a bar that goes behind the seats and mounts to sheet metal? Haha well it works really well, and actually takes alot of flex out of the body. So would this, Even if its just bolted to the sheet metal. The idea is what are you trying to do with a strut tower bar or a brace like that, minimize chassis roll, and the chassis (sheetmetal) so..... I say its well worth getting it. I would, but im cheap so ill just make my own, or you could do that. Bolting it to the floor like that adds alot of strenght to the chasis. Im not sure if the sides of the car or the top of the struts to start from would be the best for best results, but either way its pretty much doing the same thing. CUSCO makes a 3point bar in the shape of a triangle that looks sorta like this but its from the top of the struts so That may be the answer to what i was saying above, Personaly i would go the way of cusco. More proven race results then something off of ebay, but this bar would still work none the less. If you cant understand anything i just typed sorry, im pondering this still and am not really sure what part of my idea process is getting out!

Actually Feed makes a rear bar that goes across where the bins or back seat would be.
