Car is a 2000 convertible SE. Upgrade #3 (Steering Rack Brace and Rear Anit-Sway Bar previously installed and reviewed). This upgrade fine tunes the front end, reducing front body learn through the turns. The car handles in a much more predictable fashion through the turns. Cowl shake also seems to be reduced. While the handling improvement was not as dramatic as the first two upgrades, I think this is because their was less to improve. Install is very easy, just a few minutes time is all it takes (I did place a call to Nick as the new brace came in contact with my power steering hoses, but he assured me this would not cause any issues with the hoses). I did have to wrestle a little bit with the passenger side nuts to get everything to line up, but the fit was nearly spot on. Note that the strut bearing plastic caps will not fit with the new brace, so I just trimmed off the two eyelits from the covers that were causing the interference leaving one remaining. They fit snug enough with just the one remaining eyelit. Overall, I think this upgrade is well worth it! Last planned upgrade is the 6 point subframe brace. Hope to get to that in the next few months. Thanks again to all those at Taliaferro!
