Posted: Sat Apr 28, 2012 1:04 amASR is only worth the money if you have a nice swaybar.
Skunk2 LCAs have junk bushings (according to many reviews).
I would recommend Function7, Hardrace, or OEM LCAs.
LCAs are really just a flashy product. You're OEMs will do the same job as aftermarket. Just don't cheap out and buy whatever and end up with worse bushings than before.

Posted: Sat Apr 28, 2012 2:03 amalso what about beaks lower tie bars or asr sway bar
Posted: Sat Apr 28, 2012 2:34 amASR subframe brace as said before are brilliant and highly reccomended when fitting a sway bar.
The Beaks lower brace though looks good holds very little amount of structural performance and is mainly a bling factor item.
On the LCA side of things yes many of the after market ones are also a bling product though some and slightly lighter than OEM, again it is right that bushings on them are not great but I have heard and am planning that you can home out the existings ones and replace then with hyperflex ones which are stiffer and will last longer.

Posted: Sat Apr 28, 2012 5:38 pmit all really depends on what youre doing with the car.
I had the brace and a 24mm sway bar on my EG when I first got it, I hated it soooo badly. the ride was really compromised. which is why i say dont do it on a car that you're ONLY going to DD.
- strickly a DD? waste of money. im sure the $400 or so you spend buying the brace and LCA's could go towards some sort of maintenence item teh car needs (like bushings, or brakes, etc)
- Something that'll see a lil track time (weekend track events, auto-x), ya you can benefit from it
- Dedicated race car? YES

But I think it looks really nice and it definatle cleans the back part of the rusty underbody! I will probly get it just cuz I like it and cuz I want it lol! and I drove my car daily!
