A strut brace and a shock brace? Yes, a very good idea! To save money get a Cavy strut tower brace and then get the MRZ shock brace. MRZ does have both though, their strut brace has alot more flash than the Cavy bar. It's up to you. If your going to get the Cavy bar look for the one that has the holes in a line, the ones that are offset will not work.

You will need one from a 92 Z24 or around there. Here is a link

Hey, I have an 04 Cav. Did you have to move the computer or the cruise to put the DC Sports bar on? What did it take to get the rear bar on? Lets just say I bought one from a company and the only way I could get it to fit was to use a butt load of washers(I put back in the box).

Well, I plan to keep the cruise and I'm not sure what to do with the computer. Did you check out MRZ? Where are the pics of your car?
Also be sure to get some aftermarket shocks and struts when you put on the new springs.

Pics of the Beretta. What else do you plan to get from MRZ? I lost a Beretta to a cab driver, so I know how it feels.

I like what I see! Gald to see the Ford too! Is that a hole in the tail light?
I still don't have my crank pulley on yet. Any tips after you get it done would help. I have a trans to do first. That is if it ever gets here.

Hrmmmm... Neon wheels... not bad, but...

I'm not a fan of the neon... yet I do have neon parts on my car as well, but at least mine aren't as obvious... LOL Not too many people know exactly what Neon rear disc's look like.

Not the SRT one, Its just the standard Neon Sport.. I don't think the SRT's have all that much over the standard option of rear disc.
