Body Bracing Checklist?
#22
I like my Beat Rush rear platform brace quite a bit, and for the $100 that it cost, I think it's worthwhile.
Not sure if anyone else is carrying them these days, but I ordered mine from the now-closed Metro Motorsports back in the day. Quick install (especially if you have access to a lift), and looks good, too.

Do you guys think the RB Front Lower Brace is worth it?

Or is the cheap Moss Motor one enough.

So far, I have on my list to order:
- FM Butterfly
- FM Cannon
- Harddog Door Bar
- A Front Lower Tie Bar (RB or Cheap Moss)
I think this will give me a good stiff chassis.
I drove my buddy's miata with the Front Lower Tie Bar, and the Rear Cannon, and it feels pretty good in terms of impact aftershake.

it sits pretty low and not near your knee. besides if the bar is hit hard enough to cripple you because it bent in, you'd be meeting some part of the door panel or something even harder. It mimics roll cage door bars. which generally help to prevent from things protruding into the cabin.

Ah therein lies the answer to your own question, what one does with there miata another might not, and yes you can be to stiff, my doctor said to call an ambulance if that happens again lol.
I have the rb cannon and fm butterfly but I wouldn't really buy those things before basic suspension upgrades and ofcoarse boost goodies.
