Question Strut braces for 1994 Touring?

Just wanted to know what the general consensus was on adding a front strut brace. What brands? Average Cost? Any noticeable differences?

I got the Cusco strut bar from Corksport.com for $135. It stiffens the front end quite a bit and took less than 10 min to install. It's a great way to mek the car handle better. Cusco is the most popular brand bc it's good quality and cost the less than other bars that do the same (GAB for example).

BTW, if you want to see more on this topic, do a search on 'strut tower bar'.

Thumbs up Agreed

I have the front and rear Cusco strut tower braces. They do stiffen your chasis quite a bit and they also suppose to improve you handling characteristics. Most places sell anywhere from $135 to $155. They also offerred them in carbonfiber. Cusco is very popular in Japan and makes good quality suspension parts.

I have the R1 front tower brace. How does it compare to the Cusco front.

Also, any comments on the CF rear brace regarding strength and performance over stock?
