The cross floor bar kit will reduce the body flexes that occurs during cornering. It creates a reinforcement between each side of the chassis. The bar is mounted on the floor between the front and rear seats. The cross floor bar kit will maintain a stiffer center of gravity and a locking motion in your chassis. The overall suspension and handling will increase by 15%. This product is used by all professional drift racers.

* Made from high quality stainless steel.
* Universal Installation - fits any car.
* Improves handling by 15%.
* Must have for professional racers.

what do you think? scam? i don't see how this would work really.[/quote]

looks cool! but why spend 100$ on 15$ worth of metal?

make your own!

it would probably improve handling, any kind of chassis stiffener will help.

I say garbage, don't see what sort of flex that would keep from happening. Looks useless...

Would it increase torsional rigidity, maybe a bit but I wouldn't waste my money. A bar running perpendicular between the two rails will do little to increase the torsional rigidity.

If you're worried about torsional rigidity an X-brace is substantially more effective:

The thing that gives this away as junk would be that "This product is used by all professional drift racers." - drifting professionals in a neon? WOW

In all seriousness though... I think it will do nada, or at most very little.

P-Werks makes a chassis brace.

Just get a roll cage. Does more, and actually makes you track legal.
