steeda is overpriced IMO, BMR and CHE work fine for most all applications.....F1fan will tell you all you want to know about the steeda parts though.

thanks F1fan it is
Hi rravolt,

The S197 chassis does not need any reinforcements. Th chassis is plenty stiff and will not gain significantly from these additions. This includes upper strut tie bars andshock tower tie bars, save your money for something the car needs.Maybe ifyou have atrue road race level spring and damper setup and race rubber not just"R" compond street tiresthe only worthwhile chassis reinforcement thatimprove the chassisare BMR's heavy duty rectangular subframeconnectors. All the rest of the chassis tie bars are just style statements.

Cheers!
