GT Spec or Ultra Racing?

Worked on mine, had a tremendous improvement in chassis rigidity. I put on ALL the braces of UR though. Worth the money. And it's actually quite cheap compared to braces from CUSCO, Carbing, NAMS etc. My Yaris used to flex like a noodle with only me on board on completely stock suspension.
Although they aren't the exact same braces, I think those two types braces use two or more similar mounting points into the chassis so they might not work together or at least you won't be able to mount them together. IMHO go UR all the way. So you can get all their braces to work together mounted on your Yaris. You might also want to take a look at UR's room bar. Mounts between the b-pillars.

Well it made a hell lot of difference in my car.
I have the complete set of bars from Ultra Racing besides the middle lower member brace and room bar. You might want to check out the following link if you have any doubts about the rigidity of their bars. http://www.ultraracing.com.my/template.asp?menuid=28 Cheers! :)

Apexing Egg!!

i wish i had pics of where some of the bars go. Some of the Ultra racing bars are kinda hard to figure out where they are going exactly.
i have heard fender braces should be a good mod for our car, i think Tamago suggested that as well.

Those aren't the same thing.
The UR braces are side underbraces, the GT Spec is a centered underbrace. A more fair comparison is underbracing from both companies that goes in the same location.

Are you sure these will work together? I didn't think there was that much room under there. The reason I asked is I thiught they went in the same spot or used the same mounting locations. Also I'm auto-xing my car and have read around here that under bracing really stiffens up a car. So I guess I really want to find out what type of under bracing will help me out. (i'm not buying it now it's for future reference) I sould be getting new tires really soon. That's first then different springs and shocks/struts or coilovers.
