h brace

[5th gen hatch]

has anyone bought a h brace off ebay and if so was it any good?

 

[BlackHopeDC5]

from what i hear the most funtional feature of it is protecting the header/oil pan. Most didnt feel any affect

^^^ that's what I've heard. I personally wouldn't waste my $$$ on it

A guy i work with has one on his EK hatch and said it helped with wheel hop but i have no ides if thats bull$hit or not

^^^ i don't see how an H brace would reduce wheel hop

No traction bars just H brace and Skunk2 coilovers and a no name camber kit

Yeah, I dont think its worth the money for any reason at all.

Are you kidding me? I personally have one on my current car, and had one on my old car. Its amazing! It tightens up the front end so much. It does help with wheel hop a bit, but thats not its purpose. I love mine.
