Not used them myself...

But know a few people with UR fender braces and subframe supports.

Look good quality.

Unless your going to be going full wack...
Coilovers... Roll cage and a full track spec car... Chances are you won't feel much of an effect.

What's your aim for the car?

well it kinda feels like it flexes a lot. bit like an old convertible I know at the end of the day its a micra and will not & never be a sports car but just want it to feel a little stiffer and more sure of its self. coilovers will be happening in the future.

Chances are you will feel no gain from just bolting them on. The boatish feel will come from tire flex... Suspension... Anti roll bars... Then chassis flex.

I would advise to get suspention mods first... Ie...some good sports shocks and lowering springs or go straight to Meister for some coilovers...

As a paid member your granted access to 10% off of price and free delivery from Meister.

Then some Decent ARB's and adjustable drop links if you can get some.

Once you've done the above... Then I would look at chassis strength... Otherwise it would just be for show

yeah youre right I know I just keep looking for quick cheep - ish items that can come off again easily incase of warranty work. they have already tried to get out of fixing my sat-nav screen because of the lowering springs :lol: and tbh its gotta be a little bit for show too! I really like this stupid little car & I think its got potential to be quite nice & a little different. So think im gonna see if its any better when I put my slightly wider wheels on it and then go from there, i'll prob take youre advise & maybe spend more to get more on the suspension side before I go for the other bits. only got just over a year of warranty left.

Yeah I don't wanna end up like that I'm just after more confidence from it really. I only notice it so much because I have a kind of figure of 8 roundabout job on my way to and from work and it gets a little scary at times if you go even a touch hard at it.

After that it don't look like the front strut brace would fit anyway its only listed for the na one and looking at fitted pics the airbox on mine would be in the way.
