suspension part ?

bout to make some suspension component purchases, just want to make sure i'm spending my money on the right parts...

my '89 coupe has stock sways (front & back). is it worth swapping in s/t sways? is it worth swapping in cusco sways? how great of a difference in cornering and such?

I was thinking about getting the nismo power brace, i've heard great things. but my stock front tension rod brackets really dont seem flimsy at all, so the only benefit to the nismo power brace would be the cross brace. so am i just better off getting a cusco front power brace like the one linked below and keep my current tension rod brackets the way they are, or should i just get the nismo cause it's so effective...



and lastly, jspec has a similiar rear ladder bar for sale as this one from spl



and they say its in house installation only cause it's very difficult to install. is it really? has anyone installed one of these? and it can be installed with the rear sway installed as well right?

if i can get as much input as possible it would be greatly appreciated. thanks a lot guys. ill keep searching. later

all the suspension linkages and brackets in the 240 are flimsy and would do good to be stiffened up.

Go here for the install on the ladder bar.

I would go with the Nismo unit for the brace. Here are some reviews.

And reviews of the Cusco.
