okay henry and company hers my final assessment of the toms setup
ups (my best friend in brown) delivered my toms rear lower control brace at around 5:30pm (very late ) last night .. by 5:50 i had it installed and ready for some action .. install was one of the simplest i have done yet
my opinion on the whole toms setup from the front lower brace , 6 piece link set and rear lower control brace is GUYS , SPEND THE APPROX 1K FOR THE 3 PIECE SETUP it will transform you suspension and ride into a very very very capable auto bahn stormer .. whether you are running a decent shock spring setup or quality coilovers these pieces will allow the car to perform to its max
for those of you worrying about ride quality , with the addition of the pieces , my ride quality got better because less movement is in the subframes back to front so therfore completely allowing the dampers to do just as described , damper the road. their is way too much movement within the oem designed subframe areas and within the unibody which was designed to absorb the road ,not good for controlled high speed manuvers, the toms setup cures it 500% period...
its pricey the whole setup but grinning from ear to hear while sitting on those hopped up civics and bimmer 3 series tails is priceless (too me at least)
their you go henry , now i hope on mon you will be emailing steve

Did you have the TRD front LCB piece on your car before you added the Tom's?
