  • 1st mod has to be sub frame connectors

    I installed mine this week - I cannot believe the difference. I kept reading the results and I guess just not believing it. It should be the first modification to these cars - yes before even a cat back!

      I put new LCAs on at the same time - I am researching lowering the car right now and chroming the wheels I have. I am done with performance stuff for the time being (famous last words).

          I got the bolt in type - will probably have them welded in later for added strength.

            Strut tower brace is good too. You'll definitely notice it on a turn in.

                Definitely a good first mod. Imagine the difference with the double-diamond SFCs

                  Get some sway bars. Big difference from stock.

                    it cost way to much to get your wheels chromed. I asked a few local places how much it would cost me to get some c5 Y2k wheels chromed that i found for a really really good price and the guy told me i was better off buying 2 sets of Y2k wheels because it was probably going to be cheaper.

                      I have had chroming my wheels priced - about 500 for the set.
