Could go the extra mile as well and put in a rear shock tower brace, as well as doing what I saw for a third-gen. Bear with me on this explanation: What it is, is a bar that is bend to the contours of the rear floor and then it bolts to the inside of the door-sill. It's like a mid-chassis brace like the strut tower.

However, I believe that no track will let you run w/o a cage. And a cage will really stiffen things up for you.
