[DaGr81]

thinking of adding more rigidity to car for a bit better handling etc etc, want to know if anyone has tried a b-pillar floor brace? was it good? any noticeable difference?

cheers in advance for advice/comments

I have one and it does... fark all.

except take away foot space for rear passengers...

It gives me agood excuse to not put passengers in the back

passengers can use them to dislodge bits of dirt stuck to their shoes. or if you are in law enforcement you could use it as an achorage point for leg restraints. apart from that they are almost as usefull as tits on a bull.

they look pretty cool though

you would be better off buying strut braces, front and rear, and then front under guard braces.

can you use em as a harness restraint?

[Beer Baron]

no you cannot. they are way outside of the required angle.

someone was using it as a fire extinguisher mount - I reckon that's not a bad idea

They do nothing unless tied to the trans tunnel like the one below.

That was me, but in all honesty you could mount it to the vertical bit of chassis between the floor and the base of the back seat

Sorry Dave how could I forget you!

[DaGr81]

cheers all, and yeah already got strut braces all round, maybe under body braces are better...anyone used these? or have photos... comments? anything? cheers

i think the gains if any are quite marginal... there's more to be had by spending the money on other areas of adjustment.

that said, the wank factor of having a floor brace is cool

it's like saying i'm a hardcore racer with the "roll cage" which does nothing, but people don't know that
