Hey guys, If you were to get one strut brace only, which one would you get. The front or the rear.

I have a factory strut brace in the engine bay but I got no idea how good it is.

I heard that if the car is a front wheel drive, get a rear strut bar. It will work better than a front one and vice versa for a rear wheel drive car.

Any ideas?

Thanks for the reply Johnny That was exactly what I was looking for. I didn't know that the GT4 came with a OEM strut bar at the back. Is there any chance that you can get a post a pick of it? I just bought my girlfriend a JIC Magic strut bar for the front of her MR2. I hardly drive the car so I can't really tell the difference between the stock bar and the JIC bar. She said that its more steady and she can take corners faster and it doesn't get the understeer shutters.

Does anyone know of JIC and are they a good brand? I got her bar for about $230 AUD which is about $120 USD.
