how much difference will i feel in the handling if i were to buy one and install it? considering it supposedly flexs and all?

a strut brace will improve your handling but overall it will depend on all the other suspension you already have in the car... obviously if u already have good bushes, shocks and springs then it would be fair to say "your car will handle like its on rails".. but failing that, it will stiffen your chassis up more and make the car handle "better".. :P

I doubt you will notice any benefits of a strut brace unless the car is beng driven on the limit.. ie around corners on a track.

Stands to reason you would be able to notice them on the road then given that you were a demanding driver.. :)

Heya grumbly, i'll volunteer, but i have a twin cam, so may need to alter the bar. I am free this weekend. PM me an address and day/time. I would like to get one but will need to wait for funds to become available. Hope that won't be a prob for you. I await your reply :)

Organised! Will see you there grum! ( Yes, I have called him, and strut braces should be available to all austarion members soon!) Maybe someone else should have organised a meeting to get measurements done before the new year, and not bailed on grum! ( Hint, Hint!) Shame!
