i have been offered top and bottom strut braces and i was just wondering is there any difference for say spirted back road blasting or is it only noticable on a smooth track if they are worth getting what are the advantages/ disadvantages .....

anyone that says upper makes a noticeable difference is a fricking idiot. it will help a bit in a front on crash though

lower makes a good difference in making the front stiffer

lower is in an area that gets more stress on a saxo so is more worth wile
i run both atm but think the upper will be coming off in the new year to make way for better topmounts

Go for it mate, both of them will make a difference aswell as looking good :)

I feel there's no harm in fitting a top one, if it actually makes a difference then it's worth it, if not then at least it'll help stop the top mounts bowing upwards
