Title meant to say "shock tower brace" not strut
05 GT. So I am building a track/race car that I will still drive on the street. I do not care about comfort. I like to rugged and rawness of a race car. My car interior is half stripped with plans on removing everything else this summer. Besides the dash.
Is there a big benefit in rod ends vs poly for track cars? Is the extra stiffness noticeable. Talking about panhard bar and LCAs mainly since those are my next mods. If my main goal is to build a track car then I want to get the proper race car stuff from the start. Looking at BMR for most of my suspension stuff. Looks like quality stuff. Nice prices. I like red. Is poly mostly for guys who want a race car "like" feel with still some comfort?
Next question is about the shock tower brace I have. Does this really need to be welded in? I've read both sides here on different brace install guides.
Money comes slow so mods need to be saved up for.
So far I have...
-Sportlines
-Shock tower brace
-A-arm brace
-Strut tower brace
Next on the list...
-Panhard bar
-LCA and relocation
-Shocks/struts
Far down the list...
-Roll cage
