[ATL BRZ]

Just went to lunch and drove down a couple of the least suspension-friendly city streets in Atlanta (Boulevard and Moreland) to the restaurant and back home. If you're from Atlanta you'd likely agree that even though they are paved it's basically like off-roading when driving down them since they are riddled with potholes, cracks, deviations, and iron plates just waiting on unsuspecting motorists to destroy suspension components on.

The strut brace is definitely doing it's job. It has removed a significant amount of harshness over road deviations and flaws. The car feels more stable and planted going down city streets at normal speeds where before I had to drive slower than usual to not upset the car too much. I haven't done any spirited driving yet with the brace installed but my next track day is less than a month away so I'll know soon enough how it affects high speed cornering stability.

In conclusion, the GrimmSpeed brace is definitely worth the $133 paid thanks to their awesome group buy pricing. It's a simple no-brainer mod that I'd recommend to all 86'ers looking to dress up their engine bay and improve the ride quality significantly.
