You may get some advice from this link:
Contact Us | Ultra Racing

Then you may consider on whether to strengthen your chassis. There are a few options. Do some research before modding :top:

What?
Making the chassis stiffer, thus strengthening.

How?
Spot welding, brace bars,etc2..

Why?
To reduce chassis flexing during cornering.

When?
When you have money.

Who?
Ultra Racing is a good start for the bars. Or whatever brand you like. Not sure for spot welding though.

Blueprinting has nothing to do with chassis strengthening btw. That's all engine and if you don't have money don't bother doing it cuz it's one of those things you'll want to do if you're running really tight tolerances and making your engine run on the edge of its maximum performance.

Chassis strengthening is literally what it says... stregnthen your chassis. If you ask me what a chassis is :

Let me google that for you

Need them?
Yes, if in track play can fit the bars.
If into rally, then spot weld also....:driver:

Something similar to that. This one is call Rigid Collars, the other is call Stiff Rings. Depends on which
you want to go for. Izso did share his experience after installing Rigid Collars. You may read
and decide after that. Price wise if not wrong, Racetech Rigid Collars are more costly.

Still bores down to individual preferences. Some may go for Racetech Rigid Collars where
some would go for Stiff Rings. Reasons are base on individuals. No particular reasons.

If not wrong, was stated in Izso's thread, Rigid Collars is created by SPOON?

Also I did read some good feedback on Stiff Rings which is why I decided to give it a try and yet is at affordable price.

So far tested, I can say no words can describe my satisfaction. :top:

End of the day, all of us just want the same thing, Effective Results and Worth the money kind of mods.

Stiff Ring, Racetech, Spoon, whatever - just make sure you understand what it does before you blindly install it.

Some car designs don't need it and some were designed to flex to some extent. If you stiffen it it'll make your ride worse. My old Wira design benefited from the Racetech chassis alignment kit, but my Myvi had no benefits whatsoever. And two were ill-fitting because of the way the crossmember bolts were fitted. End up i took out the kit and used it for other purposes which had more effect - gear linkage! Fuh.. shiok sendiri.

That one is a c0ck ring. not stiff ring. HAHAHAHA :rofl:

Well said, is not the brand, just got to do some research and know why you need it.
Some read a bit on the product then decide if you wanna try it. Maybe there are owners out there
who tried it and got good feedback then you may consider.

Like Izso's Myvi, after install Rigid Collars, nothing felt. So there is one feedback here. So if yours is
Myvi, then you got to make your own decision at the end of the day. Feedbacks are just
guidelines. Different people, different desire or feel.

Cock Ring, have to get from Watson/Guardian :rofl:

You won't feel a thing on a car that fitted it. Unless you test drive a car that is same as yours that fitted that stiff ring or rigid collars. Is a before and after kind of test.
