Actually since fitting the door stabilizers the car seems a touch more solid as I take corners. There is certainly less creaking from the body, but I do admit (as you say) there really isn't much in it as big changes go. I do enjoy the more solid thunk of the doors when closing and, from a bling perspective, it really cleans up the unfinished look around the door latch.

Now that you mention it I'm kinda on the fence about the v-bars. I really didn't think they would do much given the stock car already has its own set. Do you really notice a change in fitting the STI ones?

Also I'm only just starting to look into the draw stiffener. From what I gather it connects under the car. Is it something reasonably easy to fit your self?

After experiencing the dramatic impact of the STI strut brace I suddenly have greater interest in a category I never really played around in before. Always knew that bracing was important in a racing applications, but never realized what an impact it could make in improving the general ride quality of a car.
