Any plans for future modifications? Suspension and handling?
The shock tower brace is an awesome addition for structural support.
I'd highly recommend a few inexpensive upgrades (if you don't already have them):
* "The Club" steering wheel and brake pedal locking devices.
* subframe connectors with seat braces.
* reinforce the body mounts for the rear lower control arms
* SFI rated harmonic damper
* Green stuff brake pads, and slotted rotors.
And then for some real fun, add a set of adjustable struts and shocks (I really like the Tokico Illumina setup), some H&R supersport springs (great spring rate for a convertible), and M-M Caster Camber plates. Those additions will turn your car into a real corner carving speed demon.
Thanks all!
