Ordered Rear Strut Tower Brace Today

Yeah it seems to make a difference but then again I don't take turns on the road at tire smoking speeds. But from what I understand the lift back is naturally a little weak. I don't have a front one now but will soon. My friend has a front stb on his 88 mk3 and he claims that it makes a difference. He is also doing poly bushings all around, so I'll let you know how they work out. The car handles very well though with the mods I have done:

Eibach Springs
New Gr-2s
New sway bar links
ST sway bars
225-45-18 hankook ventus all around

The first step is to mount the ends with bar the off once the panels are off. Then you can put the panel next to the mount and see where to start making the hole.

Picture of the hole I made. Took alittle too much on the top off it though. It takes some time to take alittle off and then check fitment then repeat till you are happy with it.

Picture of the mount without the bar on. And yes I put some second skin insulation in awhile back and thats why it wasn't that hard for me too remove the panels the second time around.
