GTSPEC ladder brace

I placed order on a TSW x brace last month but it is still on back order till (do not know when). I am wondering if anybody use GTSPEC 4-point ladder brace on their R59, the price is half of the TSW and it looks well constructed.
here is a link of this unit.

any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
thank you,

TONY

can't speak to the ladder brace for the mini but GT Spec makes lots of bracing for the Subaru STI and they're good stuff.

Do the Rear Sway Bar...22MM HK...it makes your driving experience so much better and fun...

I had the 16MM OEM and changed to the 22MM HK right before MOTD...it made the MOTD trip so much better.

I did switched out the OEM to 19mm rear sway bar and yes it did corner much better.

It seems like the rest of the JCWs on here are doing the GP2 Belly Pan instead.

I do not think the GP2 belly pan help stiffen up the chassis.
