Sorry I haven't replied to your PMs. LOL Nah, kinda busy. I already installed the spoiler by the way, since you installed yours without calling me.

with the underbrace.. did you feel that it's tighter in the front? increased understeer? You said that the sterring wheel is stiffer.. do you think it's the underbrace.. not the springs?

there is? where?

n/m found it. thing doesn't look like it would do anything for handling. stiffen up the frame a bit i guess, seriously doubt it would tackle roll at all.

anyone know the measurements for the Df210's? How much does it drop the rear and the front?

The under chassis brace benefits are quite limited. But for the price. I think it's good. You'll notice a faster turn-in I think.

I saw his car last time. It's a little bit of a 2 finger gap front, and 1 finger rear. It's pretty much the same height as my TEIN CS coilovers right now. Looks good! I like it more then the NF210.

definitely don't like the front higher than the back look..looks silly, like you have 3 dead bodies in the trunk
