H-Brace, worthy mod?

[CTOESHO]

Is an H-Brace a valuable mod? Seems cheap, and installation wouldn't be bad at all. Thanks.

It's valuable if you upgrade/modify the rear control arms.

I don't know how useful it is on a stock SHO...

if you drive aggresively, yes its worth it. if you have ever been under your car and seen the ************* that the controil arms attach to, it need some strength if you are going to be taking corners or highway ramps at high speeds. for the $50 on ebay for the brace and the $50 or less for install (if you want it welded) its deff worth it.

Mike,

I would advice the addition fo the H-brace to your car if you modify your suspension. I was shocked to see how distorted my stock control arm mounting points were when I inspected the underside of my car. I had only autocrossed my car once at that point and would put the eibach/konis to use once in a while around the ricer or bm'ers. Once I installed the h-brace it staighten the distorted metal which require me to realign the car. A bonus is it creates a great rear jacking point.
